A Sea Org “work week” could mean 110 hours, from 8 a.m. to midnight—or later—for about $46. Under Miscavige’s management, exhaustion and low pay left little room to save or step away. Full video: https://t.co/lupmQsuuGR

David Miscavige’s distrust reportedly ran so deep he checked bottle caps and opened his own drinks. A tyrant suspicious even of his staff, paranoia taken to an absurd extreme. Full video: https://t.co/q1BsJ2ndvp

Hollywood isn’t built to challenge Tom Cruise—it’s built to keep the next interview. When access comes with conditions, asking hard questions can cost more than staying quiet. Full video: https://t.co/q1BsJ2ndvp

Working for Tom Cruise, someone who demands perfection, offers no predictability, and keeps everyone walking on eggshells isn’t a good job. The pressure can turn every mistake into a crisis. Full video: https://t.co/q1BsJ2ndvp

A 110-hour workweek for about $46—and no retirement fund. Even serious injuries reportedly went without an ambulance. The cost of being unable to keep working can be devastating in a cult that demands everything form you.. Full video: https://t.co/q1BsJ2ndvp

Tom Cruise has the power to challenge Scientology’s rules but intentionally chooses to follows them even when they destroy his family. Full video: https://t.co/q1BsJ2ndvp

Getting anything made in this town right now is no small feat, and it’s getting harder every day.

It takes a lot to get a good project off the ground these days, and I’m really proud of @apangelo and the entire team who worked so hard to make this happen.

Congratulations to everyone involved!

A multimillion-dollar auditorium for maybe five events a year. But add a fundraiser, and suddenly all those empty seats have a purpose: another fundrasing opportunity. Full video: https://t.co/9bn5z1fv9z

Scientology’s Clearwater takeover wasn’t sudden—it was part of the plan decades ago, with plans for L. Ron Hubbard Hall discussed in the ’90s. Full video: https://t.co/9bn5z1fv9z

A 2,100-seat venue raises questions about claims of millions of members. When events rely on local crowds and Sea Org staff to fill seats, the gap is hard to ignore. Full video: https://t.co/9bn5z1fv9z

A hand-crank record player for archived recordings? An iPad could do the job 1000% better and more efficiently. Why waste the extra money? Full video: https://t.co/9bn5z1fv9z

Language is used to shield the truth. When someone is on a 'special project,' it is often code for something far darker. Full video: https://t.co/ZCvEa9lrlm

Was Marty Rathbun a double agent, a coward, or just a man out of options? Parsing the complex legacy of a figure who terrorized his own and eventually turned against his allies. Full video: https://t.co/ZCvEa9lrlm

Rules were strict to the point of absurdity. Flirting was an offense, yet those in power operated under a different standard. Observing the behavior of top leadership, the contrast between the enforced rules and their own reality is striking. Full video: https://t.co/ZCvEa9lrlm

Public focus on one missing person often overshadows the hundreds of others still trapped in similar circumstances. It is easier to fixate on a single story, but the systemic reality affects everyone inside the organization equally. Full video: https://t.co/ZCvEa9lrlm
