Scientology's Corporate Exploitation Hurts People

Scientology is a totalitarian, mafia-like organisation, which silences its critics by extreme intimidation and harrassment, claim thousands of Anonymous during their series of worldwide protests. About 8000 people picketed the institution in 17 countries and 108 locations on 10th of February, and on 15th of March they embarked on "Operation Party Hard". With "Operation Reconnect" on 12th of April protesters want to expose the brainwashing cult's disastrous effect on families with their "Policy of Disconnection".
Despite countless reports of members forced into bankruptcy, broken families and suicides, Birmingham City Council has endorsed the sinister Cult. There are also reports that Scientology's second biggest base in the UK will be established in Moseley Birmingham and there are protests against a Scientology exhibition in a shopping centre in West Bromwich.

I am a former Scientologist who can no longer stand idly by while Scientology ruins societies with their private police state. It's time to expose them for what they are, a cult with too much money

I was a member of Scientology for many years but Anonymous has helped me see the light. Their fun loving peaceful protests inspired me to research their many claims and lead me strait to xenu.net. I learned all was not as it seemed in Scientology and that the organization has been guilty of many atrocious violations of human rights. I simply cannot be a part of such a vile organization (one that I heave learned uses child slave labor camps) anymore. I have begun to distance myself from the organization itself whilst still retaining my beliefs in Scientology.
