What exactly happened in tom cruises video on scientology?

It’s still right here, see for yourself:

And Scientology is so controversial because… There are multitudes of people who have suffered tragic experiences during their involvement with Scientology. Read about them here:

Here are several more examples which demonstrate Scientology to be the cult that it is. These examples include an illegal plot to infiltrate the government, brainwashing techniques, mind control camps, attacks on critics, and DEATHS caused by Scientology doctrine and members:

● Operation Snow White – Under this official program, Scientology operatives committed infiltration, wiretapping, & theft of documents in government offices. This program constituted the single largest infiltration of the United States government in history. Among the 11 prominent Scientologists convicted of this conspiracy was Mary Sue Hubbard, the wife of Scientology’s “prophet”.

● Operation Freakout - Their campaign of sabotage & intimidation against Paulette Cooper, the writer who published her research & findings on several cults, including Scientology. The following was Scientology’s official plan for “dealing” with this woman: to frame her for making “bomb threats”, ruin her career & reputation, & get her either incarcerated or locked up in psychiatric confinement. The ordeal bankrupted her and left her terrorized within an inch of her sanity.

● Tax Fraud - One of the only reasons they enjoy “tax exempt status” on religious ground in the United States is because they bullied the IRS into a “deal” through extremely aggressive barratry (which is the offense of persistently instigating groundless lawsuits) against said government agency and its officials, and arranged to drop all 2,500 frivolous lawsuits only when an “agreement” was reached. In addition, Scientology’s lawyers hired private investigators to dig up any “dirt” on IRS agents which was then used to blackmail or publicly smear all “vulnerable” agents.

● Fair Game - the Scientology policy detailing how the organization may confront & handle critics & perceived enemies. Here is a direct quote: “Enemies may be deprived of property or injured by any means by any Scientologist without any discipline of the Scientologist. May be tricked, sued or lied to or destroyed.” Though they claim this policy is no longer in effect, Scientology still goes to great lengths to bully all known critics, opponents, “enemies”, etc, often through malicious litigation & character assassination, even going so far as to falsely accuse them of crimes.

● Physical & psychological punishment - Scientologists who “break the rules” while members of the “Sea Org” must subject themselves to the Rehabilitation Project Force (RPF), which includes regimes of harsh physical punishment, forced self-confessions, social isolation, hard labor and intensive ideological indoctrination.

● Brainwashing & mind/thought control - Scientology exerts control over its members by means of typical cult tactics, including but not limited to sensory deprivation, behavioral conditioning (especially automatic compliance with authority) as well as psychological conditioning (desensitization to being abused and dominated), controlling information about internal doctrine & criticism of the organization, severely restricting social contact outside the cult (including the practice of “disconnecting” from family, friends & ex-members who question the credibility & trustworthiness of the cult & are therefore considered “suppressive persons” by Scientology), creating an “us against them” mentality by villainizing a specific out-group (Scientology does this by claiming that psychiatrists are evil & orchestrating a worldwide conspiracy), & claiming all those outside the cult are dangerously unenlightened.

● War on Psychiatry – Scientology has taken a very hostile stance towards psychiatry & psychiatric drugs irrespective of the fact that some people require medication to remain adequately functional during everyday life. It doesn’t recognize legitimate conditions like autism, epilepsy, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, or ANY neurological disorder / chemical imbalance at all, & the “church” has been known to withhold prescription pharmaceuticals from members (often with harmful & deadly results). The “Church” blames psychiatry for the Holocaust, as well as school shootings & even September 11th.

● Violent Kidnapping - Lisa McPherson was a Scientologist, was involved in a car accident & resultantly became mentally unstable. She was kidnapped from the hospital by agents of Scientology, held against her will, refused proper psychiatric treatment & allowed to STARVE TO DEATH.

● Tragic Murder - A CBS “48 Hours” special on Jeremy Perkins, the mentally disturbed son of Scientologist parents who, because of the Scientology doctrine of opposing psychiatry, refused to put him on the anti-psychotic drugs that would have stabilized him & prevented him from killing his own mother.

It’s controversial because it is a video that was only ever meant to be seen by other scientologists. It shows Cruise as a zombied-out believer of some crazy cult, basically. Scientology did everything possible to keep it off the internet because it was an ambarrasment to him and the cult. This video was also the reason the group known as Anonymous began to publicaly speak out against the cult; do to the threatening way scientology went about making people remove the video from their sites.

You can watch the video and read all about this on your own as well. It’s still very wide spread across the internet for anyone interested in learning more about it.

This is the actual movie:
