Re: A kind, peaceful answer to "What are your crimes?" Ah, never thought of that... may not work as well in masks. *sigh*
Re: A kind, peaceful answer to "What are your crimes?" No problem, just add LOL after you've said your piece.
Re: A kind, peaceful answer to "What are your crimes?" Was reading through with the intention of posting this until I saw you'd already done it. THIS is the way to deal with "what are your crimes?", similar answering with "your family misses you". You must NOT coherently reply to the question, or you are playing their game and they are in the dominant position. Interrupt the process in order to prevent further aggression and to open up the chance of saying something that actually gets through.
Re: A kind, peaceful answer to "What are your crimes?" thats actually a very nice idea... it hits psychologically if done correctly with the right emotional power placed into it.
Re: A kind, peaceful answer to "What are your crimes?" next time we try, I'd like someone to try out "FLUNK (something about family)" also, I know for a fact that they HATE memes, they only use them on us when they think that it annoys us, in reality, it's opposite, we like it... they're learning. places like flag are liable to use a rickroll or something like that on you, take some time to let them know that by using the rickroll, you're supporting the SPs, thus realising that SPs aren't that bad. also, re: ccccombobreaker on memes *coffee brand water*
Re: A kind, peaceful answer to "What are your crimes?" If I may - exscn here - here's my tl;dr;dc The scilons have to do their auditor training routines (TR's) besides OTTR0 and TR0 confronting TR's, there are the 1-4 tr's that they have to practice to deliver a practice command, asking "do birds fly?" or "do fish swim?", with "I'll give you the command again" if not answered correctly and give an ack "good", "thank you" "I got that" or "alright" also to handle originations then repeat the command, to train an auditor to have good presence/confront without being thrown off by what the preclear says or does to get the question answered. The book Alice in Wonderland is also used by looking at a phrase and deliver it to the coach with good confront and ack. So when you are asked what are your crimes you could also just run TR1-4 on them; "what are your crimes" - "do fish swim" - "what are your crimes" - "I'll repeat the 'auditing' command""do birds fly" (flunk, you are supposed to repeat the original command, do fish swim)(it could throw them off) - "what are your crimes" - "Thank you" "OK" "I got that" "thanks for telling me that"...... (flunk/fail, multiple acks not ok) etc... repeat and rinse as necessary If you have an Alice in Wonderland book to bring, give them some lines out of it after their question. They've had to do these drills till they got blisters on their eyes . Also you could try a locational with them. Pointing out different things in the enviroment. Is genreally used to bring a person out of confusion, drunkeness etc. and into present time. "Look at that lamp post" "OK" "Look at that building" "Thank you" "look at that tree" "Alright" etc. "Ok, how are you feeling", "well, let's go on a little bit more then" "what are your crimes" "Thank You" "Well..! Were going to end off here then. Your needles floating." "to the examiner" "write a success story" "That's it every one, we have an announcement! 'What are your crimes guy' just completed his "Handling the Cyber Terrorists Fag Course". Hip Hip Hooray!!! and "off to the reg we go" Happens every day. It may be lulz and not too antagonistic reaction button pushing, he/she might walk away with OT powder fail & disgust.
Re: A kind, peaceful answer to "What are your crimes?" Some insight into this type of topic: From RL interactions with scilons. "What, isn't Halloween in October?" - Yes, but it's not to late for you. "Hope you're having fun out here." - I am, at least I don't have to pay to be here. "Oh, you're being paid. We already know that." - No, but speak with us, and critics who've left the org. It's free. Come talk to us. There's a better way to happiness then money.
Re: A kind, peaceful answer to "What are your crimes?" They have been trained to respond to any threat with attack. They expect everyone else to behave the same way. One of the features of Hubbardware is a simplification of behavioral responses (and I'm completely talking out of ass here.) This is after observing lots and lots of videos, and speaking IRL to some of them over the years. Their formula; Get critics on camera, Ask impossible questions, interrupt, insult, be an asshole to them. Get critics pissed off. ??? profit. They are always surprised when it doesn't work. Understandable because (especially the older ones) really don't get the Internet (I.E, "I really haven't looked at your site very much , but I'm offended at it's content.") And they are indoctrinated that the only base response to any disagreement is outshout one's opponent. There can be no argument within Scientology, you just quote Hubbardware (which is perfect.) and the argument ends. People in a lower condition to another do not argue or they get punished. So, they cannot debate anything, they really don't know how.
Re: A kind, peaceful answer to "What are your crimes?" I've always wanted to bust out Bob Marley on them: "What are your crimes?" "(cue bad singing) I shot the sherriff, but I did not shoot the deputy ... I shot the sherriff, but I did not shoot no deputy ... (ba da da, ba da daw)". Or other famous songs: "What are your crimes?" "Waterloo! Couldn't escape if I wanted to! Waterloo! Say that you'll love me for evermore..." Bonus points for volume, dancing, air guitar, humming the instrumental bits, getting other Anons to join in, getting bystanders to join in, and general retardation.
Re: A kind, peaceful answer to "What are your crimes?" Exactly, don't push back. When they push, you pull. Catches them off guard every time.
Re: A kind, peaceful answer to "What are your crimes?" I like this. Very surreal. I'll try the locationals next time.
