Who gives a fuck about Braille? It's geared towards 12 year olds,
They (Scientology) are so fucking dangerous, and their indoctrination is the exact same as that of any other predator, they groom and suppress. They have been responsible for some straight up awful shit, beyond just the obvious of killing peoples dogs and locking up people in their compound. That rabbit hole goes deep. 2 years ago I found out I had a half sister that was deep in Scientology and raised in it and eventually made her way up into the seaorg before escaping from the compound. Some of the shit she has said about it is fucking terrifying.
Fuck Braille and fuck Scientology.

Do you think L. Ron Hubbard himself would appear in these videos if he was still on this landing station? Do you think he'd push mongo?

Sometimes I think about moving to LA and becoming a Scientologist to short cut to being rich and famous. It’s like a life cheat code. I just don’t think I could keep a straight face when someone is explaining Xenu and they seem like the wrong people to piss off.

So when little kids eventually comes across Aaron’s Scientology videos (https://youtu.be/clBtEd631i0) (https://youtu.be/EkmL3W_TYDw), their brains are already conditioned to find the awards and levels of Scientology appealing.

I enjoyed the Norwegian black metal series a lot too, it’s so hard to choose because I fucking loved the Donner party and Mormonism series. The entire LPN just consistently churns out incredible content.
But to your point, Joseph Smith showed you can just will to power your way from graving robbing and ceremonial white magic to being the founder of a new religious movement pretty fucking quickly.
Excellent research, OP. I was going to write an article on Skateboarding and Scientology ages ago but decided I wanted no part in that craziness.Would gnar if I could! Instead I’ll just quote Lou Strux - “!!!”
Jennifer Latch was the woman in the "Teach your Mom to Skate!" video. There's an interesting amount of nepotism at play here. She used to write for the HuffPost, and the video was even featured in the HuffPost. Then it was shared to Buzzfeed. She in turn did an interview with him and had it on her now defunct blog (http://oururbanplayground.com/skateboarding/). Interesting to see that she ended up working for Braille in the end.
Lance Silber's father is a photographer and it's highly likely the only reason Lance was ever involved with Braille was because Arron wanted to use his cameras to film his videos. He's been in the church a long time and his connections run deep https://www.truthaboutscientology.com/stats/by-name/m/marc-silber.htmlFuck. Or Marc Silber wanted to use Aaron to sell books and grow his own channel.
I am stupid but all the scientology material I am reading sounds like an apple ad. Does it just work?
So yeah, at worst there's been an active effort by Scientology to appeal to kids, skateboarding the bait, Braille is the vessel. But Braille has never outright posted any Scientology content on their channel so they're mostly just profiting off zoomers watching clickbait dorks. Even in the 70's, Scientology would never advertise themselves as "Scientology", but by other means. So if Braille ever starts to offer "Skate Camps!" that's when I feel the community needs to blowhorn this info. They'll get you hooked through other means before nudging you pay for Scientology Super Power text books like our pal Kyro has by the boxes.Blow that horn baby

Scientology has really been struggling to recruit new adult followers in recent years because of how much about the inner workings have been revealed over the past decade or so. It's really hard to persuade people to join your group when the "harmless weirdos" facade has been washed away, and everyone can see how violently manipulative the church is.
The fact that scientology appears to be running a "youth outreach program" in skateboarding is really troubling. They're having a hard time finding grown ass adults who are both desperate and uninformed enough to get manipilated into joining, so now they're going after young people who are gravitating to an activity that generally appeals to people who feel like outsiders, and who are often looking for somewhere to belong and find themselves in. Those are the kind of people who are VERY vulnerable to cult manipulation tactics.

Have there been any Scientology-related posts removed from Slap? Outside of tax issues, their alleged legal prowess is probably exaggerated. Former members have filed defamation lawsuits against Xenu than the other way around. That said, I had bizarre conversation with one of their attorneys (I'd rather not mention why) and was freaked out the next weekend when I saw that they had (coincidentally) set up a Dianetics table in front of my house.

Scientology has really been struggling to recruit new adult followers in recent years because of how much about the inner workings have been revealed over the past decade or so. It's really hard to persuade people to join your group when the "harmless weirdos" facade has been washed away, and everyone can see how violently manipulative the church is.IDK about the younger generation being indoctrinated. A lot of people in that age range ( 14-17) have seen stuff about the cult through stuff like South Park through negligent parenting (definitely not how scientologists want to be represented). Not to mention how prevalent the anti-scientologist sentiment is on yt ( JRE has done a couple interviews on them). Not saying that they aren't gonna indoctrinate kids but to say that they aren't fighting an uphill battle is wrong. I think its just some kooks flailing around trying to get some skateboarding twinks to join in their weird masked orgies. I don't think it will work unless they go back to kidnapping people but that a whole nother can of worms.
The fact that scientology appears to be running a "youth outreach program" in skateboarding is really troubling.
