We can't know what is going on behind the scenes, Malcolm, it is anyway between Kevin and his father. I am more concerned about the attempted take-over currently playing out on the xJC's in the public arena.
We have Davejc and Denise now openly working the crowd--perhaps those legal cease and desist letters may be having some effect--and both have a history of experience in covert persuasion. I am concerned for the recovering xJC's who are still vulnerable to this purposeful confusion-inducing rhetoric.
The quick changes between aggressive and nasty Denise and Davejc with the same people being sweetness and light is a classic tactic used by abusers to keep the victim off-balance and unsure of themselves. Unsure people follow the loudest person with the strongest, most sure voice in the room.
Davejc and Denise are aiming to be a double-act of the loudest person with the strongest, most sure voice on the xJC site--not good.
It's only a matter of time until those two have the XJC forum eating out of the palms of their hands.
All that will happen (now that they've showed up), is they will have a competition on who could cut and paste the most, and write ten sentences over and over, analyzing the one sentence the other one wrote, into infinity.
I think face to face contact or one on one private correspondence is probably the only way that ex-members could possibly hope to have an influence on existing members.
And even then, they would have to be able to penetrate DM's pre-planned anti "murmuring" or "gossiping" defense strategy!
We might have to organize a "spot a 'disbanded' JC member" competition!
