N. “That Sea Org guy said David Miscavige was a better man than Martin Luther King Jr.! He even got offended that someone would have the gall to ‘compare a great man like David Miscavige to Martin Luther King.’ So fucked up but that’s Churchies for ya.”

Adj1. “You hear they’ve been using Uber drivers as recruiters? That’s some on-brand Churchie shenanigans right there.”
Adj2. "Those alt-right cultists sure love their arbitrary rules and being cucked by a dominant male leader. Churchie style koolaid really is prevalent in the world rn, even in our scene sometimes. As above so below I guess...”

Squirreling

Squirrel, n. — a pejorative term used by Scientologists denoting either:

1. (When used by Church of Scientology members) An Independent Scientologist/Freezone Scientologist, Scientology reformist, one who practices Scientology outside the confines and sanction of the authoritarian Church of Scientology

2. (When used by Freezone/Independent Scientologists) Someone who alters the tech (Scientology doctrine) and uses off-beat, harmful, and/or ineffective practices. This was the original definition before David Miscavige changed it. However, due to the lack of resources and authority in the Freezone, as well as 2.0, it's sometimes accurate.

v. 1. (When used by Church of Scientology members) the action of practicing Scientology outside of Church sanction.

2. (When used by Freezoners) the act of editing Scientology beliefs, practices, and tech (the Bridge as it existed when LRH died); going off into off-beat/other practices, embracing harmful/Church-like/irrelevant to the reality of the Freezone policies, going into agreement with ones own misunderstoods of policy/doctrine. Acting like Miscavige. Among adherents of the Freezone, it is debated whether or not the Bridge is something that can be added to as an extension.

Adj. 1 (When used by CoS) Of or relating to Independent Scientologists and/or the Freezone

Adj. 2 (When used by Freezoners) Of or relating to changing the tech, or related to acting like Miscavige

N1: “These so-called independents are fucking squirrels.”
N2: “Dwarfenfuhrer and his cronies are a bunch of squirrels.”

V1: “Sir, we’ve noticed a huge influx of squirreling since we’ve stopped participating in any interviews. No sir, it seems to because those freezoners are fully willing to talk to journalists and authors. No sir not some dinky newspaper...CNN, sir. Yes sir like you 40 years ago...yes sir you’re very smart and handsome, totally not more wax than man...yes sir your whiskey is right here....don’t hit me again.”
V2. “Lol CofS has been squirreling the TRs courses out of existence.”

Adj1. “These squirrel orgs are becoming a problem. Moron says we can’t sue this time.”
Adj2. “This squirrel version of Dianetics is almost unreadable.”
