Using Scientology to get Famous Online

April 22, 2026

L. Ron Hubbard said, “The two biggest crimes in the Universe is being there and communicating.”

(He’s saying, you’ve not to be heard or even seen, in his ‘philosphical’ way).

So lets be, in Hubbards view, ‘criminals’.

There are a number of ways:

You can do a Scientology ‘Run’, for your Tiktok channel. This is for teens to have a laugh and get online notice.

Start a YouTube channel. A more serious endeavour.

For those who grew up in it or ex-members there is the option of a Youtube channel and also main stream media outlets.

Or, writing, either a book or a blog. This is open for anyone but not everyones forte, and can be as silly or as serious as you like. There is a actual need for some serious investigative journalism.

TIKTOK RUN:

This is more of a stunt and it’s biggest advantage is it takes mere minutes, if you pull off a good one your sure to go viral. Be prepared to try more than once.

All Scientology ‘churchs’ have a ‘Welcome All’ sign hung on their doors. So you need to stand outside and wait for the right chance, someone leaving or just going in when the doors open and then just go for it, run into the church and see how deep into the building you can get before your escorted out by security.

They normally have a host, or greeter, or someone on reception to greet people who arrive, and assert control over you and tell you where you can and cannot go in the building, they’re the ‘enemy’. Ok, obstacle to get by, is better.

The rules to stay safe is no violence or assualts, this is paramount, your only ‘weapon’ is stealth and dodging folk, once a member of staff has a grab on any of your clothing the gigs up, surrender and comply and let them take you to the nearest exit where you’ll be told to leave and not come back. Treat it like a game of tig, once they tag you, your out. Resist, your giving them an excuse to pummel you in ‘self defense’, so when they have hold of you, stop!

Don’t give them any personal details, they prob wont ask but if they do, volunteer nothing other than to say you have friends recording at all the building exits to record you coming out. This serves two purposes, they wont throw you out or handle you roughly if they know it’ll be recorded, AND lets them know you have more than one witness waiting to record your safe return to the streets, they can’t entertain ‘disappearing’ you.

And make sure you do have pals covering the exits! Don’t do this on your own.

Make sure your phone is recording. DO NOT TOUCH ANY OF THE STAFF OR PUBLIC, you will be liable for assualt and battery charges and Scientology will pursue you endlessly if you give them an excuse. Don’t damage any property. Don’t even swear. Your technically guitly of trespass, but the law also states, if you leave willingly when so directed, your free to go, so be quick to surrender if your caught and leave peacefully and don’t forget to be humble about it with grace and apologize and ask to be excused, make sure it’s recorded. Even better, live strem it.

Lighten your stunt by even be saying ‘I’m just having a laugh’ as you do your run. Don’t shout it though. DO NOT DO ANYTHING THREATENING. IF YOU TAKE A WEAPON WITH YOU, THEY WILL QUITE RIGHTLY SHOOT YOU. So don’t be stupid.

You’ll be pissing them off no end, but from your end keep a light hearted take on it and be prepared to quickly become compliant and allow yourself to be escorted out.

Be clear your bringing no harm and you’ll walk away. Simples.

I daresay over time, we’ll end up with something of a league of the top 100 runs, or maybe a ‘who has done the most different (not just your local one) church building runs’ league, there’s about 200 of them spread over the world, so build the followers, get the donos and go traveling.

Prize for the first person to run all 200 of them gets… online fame and everything they need to establish a YouTube channel. Doing every church in the US is an online badge of honour begging to be claimed.

YOUTUBE CHANNEL:

This takes some investment in both time and money. You need to produce content on the regular. It needs to be researched and accurate and produced in a studio.

You can start off with just a basic inexpensive set up, but make sure you at least have a mic, a background that is easy on the eye and a good cam. And time. Just about every phone now has a good cam, the mic doesn’t have to be a $500 investment, a $40 one will do, it just has to be an external mic to the phone, it gives much better sound quality.

Here’s the good news, there’s an army of existing Youtubers and podcasters that will happily have you on their show and help you promote your channel. You just have to connect with them and have something of interest to offer content wise.

You will find they welcome you into their ranks and are helpful. New commers to the ranks have been getting advice on tech issues to improve their studio and resources for research.

Then your into the numbers game. Making content, sharing it, picking up followers… and it DOES NOT happen overnight, it has to be worked at and the more content you can put out there, the quicker it will build, but if you keep at it, your 100% sure to get there.

There is a short cut to all this sweat…

It’s cheeky, it border lines on the illegal, the cops get involved in this YouTube series, but they get away with it, just.

It’s quite a project to pull off, they obviously had resources to spare to pull this off. Fine if you want to invest that into it.

I consider it more tabloid content and prefer a more nuanced look into the cult but that is a matter of taste. The tabloid content is more likely to go viral.

MAIN STREAM MEDIA:

This is generally the domain of ex-members and academics who specialise in cults.

Some well established YouTubers have come on TV and got their 15 seconds of fame talking about Scientology. There is no harm in sending a link of your content to media outlets, but many wont even check it unless you already have an established connection with that media outlet.

So if your serious about this, go do 5 years in University and get a PhD in theology and religion OR become a Scientologist.

You read that right… go join Scientology. Far easier and cheaper than a Uni PhD.

If you know what your getting into, keep a diary and give yourself a time limit. A month or two is unlikely to get you in enough to get what you need. Your going to have to be willing to give up a year or two for it. But cap it, or you may not get out.

Your plan is to do some introductory courses, become ‘keen’ and they will shortly start trying to recruit you for staff. You’ll quickly pick up on the lingo. Pay a little attention, and in short order you’ll have the ‘social claim’ of being a ‘Scientology specialist’.

Say that your are wanting to ‘improve with Scientology’ and let yourself be persuaded to join staff. Look like your a little lost in life but someone ready to give it all, if only you had a cause. They will be all over you.

Once your on staff, your IN.

You’ll be invited to all their mustsers, daily briefings. Weekly staff meetings. Welcomed into their famalies and invited to BBqs, they need you to accept them, they will dribble their ‘unique’ life styles to you. Soak it up. Be ‘open’ to them and they will return it 10x, they are all needie for accetpance and praise.

Physical security is just as bad, most of these ‘churches’ have horendous security once you get in the staff areas. You’ll have access to all sorts of files, so have your phone to hand and plenty memory space available.

And you’d need to put in an earnest effort. They want to know your soaking it up and your there to soak it up, so win win.

But don’t get sucked in, keep a diary, remember your there to unearth covered up abuses. Keep yourself hype-proof, and remember they are skilled in creating illusions of ‘healing powers’, so don’t fall for any of their ‘miracles’.

There’s an uncanny amount of people in Scientology who have been ‘cured’ of dyslexia and asthma, both of which can be called a panic attack or adhd, which can be easily solved with a calm environment or short spells of concentrated education, so there’s not really any ‘magic’ going on here, the ‘miracle’ claims are very easily explained. My mom and actually the leader of Scientology, both claim Scientology ‘cured’ their asthma. I have seen my mum have panics attacks that inpaired her breathing long since after she was ‘CLEAR’ (Clear of pyschosomatic ills). My mum doesn’t suffer from asthma, she suffers from cowardice, and joining Scientology gave her a commune to snuggle into that made her feel safe, so she stopped having ‘asthma attacks’, same was probaly true for the leader of Scientology though I can’t personally vouch for it, but he’s obviously found his niche. Tom cruises claim that Scientology cured his dyslexia is equally bullshit, Tom Cruise is Tom Cruise cause he is good at what he does, which is fuck all to do with Scientology, maybe he’s under that illusion, but if he left tomorrow, he’d still be a great movie star. His ‘dyslexia’ was cured by having some compassionate one on one tutoring. That it happened to be Scientologists who helped him, doesn’t mean Scientology cured him of anything. Scientology and Tom do however delude to that claim.

Other things to be aware of if your going to commit to this, ya gotta go drink and drug free. Or drug free and distant from having a drink. Certainly don’t be advocating for a night out to loosen their lips. Play down any drug histroy you may have, and they will ask.

Same applies in the world of sex, play it down, play it cool. Personally I’d advise against having a relationship with a Scientologist because they do take it very seriously and if your not there for the same reasons, it isn’t fair to either of you.

Being presentable, well mannered and a bit ambitious but a bit lost in life… you’ll be fine.

WRITING:

This is open book. Free for all. You can’t advocate for violence but if your sources are solid you can do some serious damage by exposing abuses with investigative journalism.

Please note how I qualified the word ‘damage’ in the last sentanence. If I had said “You can do some serious damage with investigative journalism”, it leaves it open ended as to what I meant by damage, did I mean to incite people to damage the ‘church’ building? However because I qualify it with ’cause damage by exposing abuses’, I have not incited violence.

This is what is important in writng about Scientology. You have to make sure you don’t endanger yourself by writing something that may be construed as inciting violence. Be assurred, from the off you will be in their cross hairs, they will have a staff member of their Special Affairs Office, read your content and see if there is anything they can pin on you in a court of law, and they are WELL trained.

With the housework out the way.

For me, writing is a dying art form. AI is creeping in and any poetic quality is becomming a thing of the past. And its such a powerful art form. I hope to welcome many to this wonderful world of creation.

The market will look after itself, true AI free human content will get a 5* in the near future, so keep your content AI free and enjoy the ride.

The mediums are many. Online posts, blogs, journals and books.

The formula is easy, research, write, edit, publish.

Hubbard and Scientology vs Trump and MAGA are just great examples screaming for anyone with common sense to spread the light into their echo chambers of delusion.

Scientologies claim to being scientific is bullshit and their most obvious delusion. Unfortunately Scientologists are actually convinced their faith is based in peer reviewed scientific research.

The abuse of it’s members is still a half opened can of worms.

Their leader is psychopath. You can quote me on that as a reliable source. I have seen him physically attack junior staffers, who had to take the abuse because they were surrounded by security staff who would have killed any staffer if they had tried to defend themself from the leader. Imagine the Pope violently attacking a Bishop while the Swiss guard on hand ready to shoot the Bishop if he tried to raise his hands in defence. It’s sick shit.

Their practice of dissconnection breaks up famalies, their high pressure sales tactics have sunk many people into enormous debt, the child labour still goes on.

I should finish with a word of caution. When I started blogging, I received a death threat. It was via FB messenger, but he did send me a picture of my house which couldn’t have been downloaded, so he’d scoped out my house and had taken pics.

Fortunately, when I contacted the police, and they contacted him, it was a stream of apologies, excuses of being too drunk and promises to never say anything like it again. The police conferred with me and we agreed it reasonable to consider the matter dealt with and never charged him. Obv not a ‘church’ effort but more just a lame member acting the tough guy online who turned out to just be all bark. But still a worthy note, your making enemies for yourself if you go down this road.

My last comment there will push on some of you to be even more keen to tackle it, for those who find the idea of that a little daunting, don’t get involved. Save yourself the stress. It takes some thick skin to take on this shit.

The pen is mightier than the sword and truth is your defense.

I think we can all start off by agreeing Scientologists tend to be really keen, I’d go as far as to say they are Hubbard fanatics, and their bullshit needs to be in the limelight.

I’d like to leave with this link, it is for a book about Paulette Cooper by Tony Ortega. Paulette was an investigative journalist in the 1970s and Scientology tried to kill her and get her framed with terrorism charges, she survived. Tony made sure she was remembered for her integrity and published a book about her life and the shere magnitude of woe Scientology brought to her life, all for simply trying to write about them.

Her story is one of the human spirit, of honor and courage and Tony Ortega did her justice with his effort and immortalizing her story.

His own efforts into exposing Scientology deserves it’s own place in history. Imagine the poetic justice of Ortega replacing Hubbard on the Guniess book of world records, as the most published author ever.

Why are our efforts important?

Because the abuse has to stop.
