Hi guys, long time no ask
There's something a bit confusing that I've been wondering about, and I'd love your input on this:
So, as a Scientology watcher for years now, I've been noticing some inconsistencies with how Sea Org members handle social media- Facebook, Instagram, and the like, in the sense of having and maintaining social accounts.
A while ago I asked Chris Shelton on his Q&A show, whether SO members are allowed to have Facebook profiles and such. He was very adamant that it's completely forbidden. I did get to witness how people join the SO and shut down their accounts, but the thing it- not in all cases..
Some of them (whom I know for sure to still be in the SO) kept their profiles up and running, others reopened personal pages (yes, they're still in the SO), and some became active on other social platforms, maybe less popular. And as much as I know, none of the few particular people I got to watch over the years, are in a particularly high ranking post with special privileges or something.
Could that mean that the grip on Sea Orgers became less tight in recent years due to all the PR pressure? Could that mean that Sea Orgers feel less afraid to play around with this stuff?
Would love to hear your thoughts, theories and knowledge on the subject
