Linkin Park are back together, but their reunion has already been marred by controversy. The band’s new co-vocalist Emily Armstrong was part of a group of Scientologists who showed up at the courthouse to support That ’70s Show actor Danny Masterson during his 2020 rape trial, where he was sentenced to 30 years to life in prison. The choice to have Armstrong fill in for the late Chester Bennington received quite a bit of backlash, notably from Cedric Bixler-Zavala of the Mars Volta/At The Drive-In. His wife Chrissie Carnell-Bixler was one of the four women who pursued rape charges against Masterson, and now, she has spoken out against Armstrong as well.
All cults are, really, because the therapist can see that the cult is basically an abusive partner x1000 and try to decondition the members.
“Plus, that money should be going to the church, or in this case your therapy sessions with us so you can become ‘clear.’ Don’t you want to give us $300,000 so we can tell you your soul is an alien and Xenu is trying to eat it or enslave it or something?”
I thought Scientology was all about the therapy and working towards becoming clear.
Nah it’s all a scam, it costs about $130,000 to become clear, and then another $30,000 ish to become level “OTIII,” Then another $130,000 to become OTVIII which is the highest current level, just to learn that South Park’s Scientology episode was actually accurate to what these people actually believe.
