By age 30 you should only consume paper, your diet should consist of science based news articles and you need to print off and eat every single one you find. Go to the store, buy a calculus book, rip out every page, stuff it in your mouth, digest the pages. You can't eat Netflix.

Never forget what actually happened here. Yes, Norway lost at the Supreme Court, but the process itself showed something important: Jehovah’s Witnesses can change policy under pressure… even after claiming they never would. Original edit might have been by @Ron_POMO #exjw

the fact the US used the full force of the federal government to eliminate the Black Panthers while the KKK is still running around tells you a lot about this country

Because pedophiles are in power

One of the reasons it's impossible to stop going down the nu metal rabbit hole once you start is finding stuff like this. I mean, this is a nu metal song - an INCREDIBLE one too! - and it's an Utada Hikaru deep cut!

When courts hear “family ties are not broken,” what does that actually mean in practice? Does it mean: “She’s still my daughter… but I won’t talk to her”? #exjw #watchtower #ttatt #JWvsNorway

A Chinese court has ruled it illegal to replace human workers with AI purely for the sake of cost-cutting. The court decided that companies hold a social responsibility to treat workers fairly and pay them what they're worth.

14/15 The organization has put out some pretty terrifying content for kids in recent years. These are screenshots from 2017's Remember the Wife of Lot, played at conventions.

Funny how fast the “Legal Victory” banner goes up. When the earlier rulings went the other way… not quite the same urgency. Also, the court didn’t say everything is in harmony with the law. It said the threshold to deny funding wasn’t met. Big difference. #exjw #watchtower

1/2 #JwvsNorway Article from Fædrelandsvennen: 'Supreme Court has concluded: “Of course I am disappointed.' Watchtowers Lawyer Ryssdal is quoted, “Jehovah’s Witnesses are very pleased that the majority respects the religious community’s right to practice its religion without sanctions, as the authorities had proposed in their original decisions.” fvn.no/nyheter/lokalt…

#JwvsNorway - Yikes. JW Spokesperson Jørgen Pedersen was quoted in an article on their win, "Won in the Supreme Court: – We are grateful. It confirms the reputation of Jehovah's Witnesses as loving, caring, and law-abiding citizens." ... This verdict says nothing of the sort. vl.no/nyheter/vant-f…

1/3 🧵AvoidJW Article: BREAKING: Verdict In – Norway Loses Case to Jehovah’s Witnesses, but the ones who carried the weightbut a courtroom loss doesn’t erase survivor harm. Shunning, isolation, and coercive control don’t disappear with a verdict. Survivors still deserve to be heard, protected, and supported. avoidjw.org/news/breaking-…

The loss at the Norwegian Supreme Court is a gut punch. Thank you to all the exJWs and active Jehovah's Witnesses that spoke the truth and fought at personal cost to show the public the harm that comes with mandated shunning. I hope you feel proud of the awareness you raised!

Vart Land: Won in the Supreme Court: - We are grateful JEHOVAH'S WITNESSES: - It confirms the reputation of Jehovah's Witnesses as loving, caring and law-abiding citizens, says the religious community's spokesperson after they won in the Supreme Court. vl.no/nyheter/vant-f…

Just a quick reminder. Interesting to see the same family connections show up in major Jehovah’s Witness legal cases over time. Small world.

UK: Parliamentary group planned to review religious organisations’ charity status Sam Carling, a former Jehovah’s Witness, is putting forward his name to chair a potential new APPG “against spiritual, ritual and cultic abuse” civilsociety.co.uk/news/parliamen…

#JwvsNorway Good Article, 'The Minister of Religion and Family: Disappointed by the verdict.' "I must admit that I am disappointed by the verdict." - Lene Vågslid to Vårt Land. Vågslid is responsible for religious and life-belief policy in Norway. "The verdict is comprehensive, and we need time to familiarize ourselves with it." vl.no/nyheter/trosmi…

Norway: This is pretty huge. Government, the minister of religion, says they are disappointed in today’s verdict and want to look into what to do. vl.no/nyheter/trosmi…
