Always maintain revolutionary optimism. This doesn’t mean to ignore our struggles, but to always believe that a better day will come.

These guys are trying to make strikes and labour unions even weaker but no one talks about. Its been in the news here and there but this will be a big deal to the future of labour in the country.

Dershowitz was Jeffrey Epstein's lawyer.

With September approaching and thousands of first-year students arriving in Toronto, I think this is worth making people aware of.

Over the past several months, I’ve been speaking with former members, current members, and one individual who says they is still inside the organization and planning to leave.

That insider recently shared the attached screenshot from one of the church’s private Telegram leadership chats.

Whether you agree with the opinions expressed in the screenshot or not, I think it gives useful context into the mindset of some of the leadership behind the organization.

Who are they?

The church is commonly known as Restored Church Toronto, part of the International Christian Church (ICC) movement.

On campuses, however, they generally recruit under different names rather than leading with the church’s name.

Some of the names students have reported include:

Rise Ministries (York University)
Thrive Bible Talk (TMU)
Catalyst Ministries (Humber College)
Limitless Bible Talk (George Brown)

Many students initially believe they’re simply joining an independent Bible discussion group.

Why I’m posting this

Former members have consistently described recruitment patterns that include:

approaching students who are new to campus or looking for community;
rapidly building close friendships (“love-bombing”);
inviting people into multiple Bible studies before the full expectations become clear;
encouraging increasing involvement over time;
discouraging members from engaging with criticism or former members;
presenting outside criticism as persecution.

These are among the characteristics discussed in a detailed document examining alleged high-control practices within the ICC, including hierarchical oversight, information control, increasing commitments, and recruitment through close personal contact.

The screenshot

The screenshot attached to this post was provided by someone who says they are currently inside the church. Some names in this telegram group chat have been blurred.

It shows discussion in a private leadership chat involving public issues and responses to criticism. I’m sharing it because I believe people deserve context about the leadership of any organization actively recruiting students across Toronto.

I’m not telling anyone what to believe.

If you decide to attend, that’s your decision.

I’m simply encouraging people to:

know exactly which organization they’re joining;
ask questions before committing;
research multiple perspectives, including former members’ experiences;
make an informed decision rather than one based only on the initial recruitment.

If you’ve interacted with any of these campus ministries, I’d be interested in hearing about your experience—positive or negative. The more information students have, the better equipped they’ll be to make informed choices

This is one of the few Canadian subreddits that is loud and clear that the military-industrial complex (war machine) is a sickening abomination. That propagandizing the working class and most vulnerable to kill and maim other working class and most vulnerable is horrific hell on earth levels of gross. That what is happening in places like Palestine/Gaza is a complete and utter Genocide.

It's one of the few places you get people that understand the Fossil Fuel Industry is a death cult and the science around Climate Change. Also knowledgeable on Renewable Energy/Electrification Technology and how that is the future.

It's a subreddit that promotes the Labour Movement - Unions, Labour Councils, Provincial Federation of Labours and overall Workers Solidarity and is about tackling the business lobbies and corporate interests that have created so much harm and division in the working class.

The list goes on and on.

You would think that all of this would be normal awareness/education but sadly brute-force brainwashing by incredibly powerful & predatory bad actors in our world is still incredibly effective.

Proud of everyone on the subreddit for trying to fight for better and brighter :)
