It really seems like it’s dying out. Or at least isn’t attracting any newer Tom Cruises. Like look where we are, on a thread where the maybe-scientologist’s name requires elaboration because most people aren’t familiar.
Tom’s by far the most valuable asset they have, always has been I guess.
In the event he ever tried to leave, they would assuredly A. Threaten him with everything they have
and failing that, B. Try to murder him before he said anything.
Sidenote: South Park has encouraged alot of bad stuff, but something I’ll always credit it with is the immense amount of damage they did to Scientology’s public image.
I have to imagine they completely implicated Tom Cruise in some of the worst shit they are up to, so if he ever tries to leave the absurd perks and shit they offer him, he’ll have to absolutely destroy his image and probably the image of friends and families forever.
Tom Cruise basically is Scientology, they’ll definitely take him down with them if he ever tried anything (Not that he would, guy seems like a True Believer).
I can’t see Tom Cruise ever leaving Scientology. I imagine they give him WHATEVER he wants. Like, if Tom Cruise wants someone dead, Scientology just asks how many goons to send.
If you were one of the top people in an MLM, would you leave? You know it’s wrong and predatory but you’re making butt load of money. Tom (I wonder) is in a similar boat. Maybe he doesn’t believe it’s predatory but the money and power makes it that much easier to look the other way.
Honestly surprised when it turns out famous people aren’t scientologists
