There's a lot of debate among people that leave Scientology.

They form these kind of communities on YouTube and other places.

I don't really think they should.

They call it a community.

And what I always say is, if a bunch of people leave a mental institution, should they have a community?

Well, I guess they could have a community, but should they have a community?

One of the things people that leave Scientology do is...

Everything is done with threat, threat of punishment, threat of brutalizing someone psychically or through what they call disconnection.

If you do something, you're shunned from the group.

You can never talk to your friends or family again.

That's always hanging over your head.

And I find that a lot of people that leave Scientology, they do the same thing to each other for 20, 30 years for the rest of their lives.

After they leave it, they continue the behavior.

And I'm not saying that as a judgment because I have to constantly look at myself to make sure that I'm not doing that.

The black and white thinking is intense.

I remember I was talking to Dove Barron one time, and I was telling him it was the most sophisticated mind control system in history.

And he said, more than Mao?

And I said, yeah.

He goes, well, I talked to a woman who grew up in Maoist China in the Maoist Revolution, and Dove had asked her if Mao was handsome.

And she said, very.
