Berlin, 02/13/2011: The Berlinale Raid

So, we are in the middle of the “Berlinale”, one of the Film-festivals that hit Berlin every year and one of the biggest. Good and / or artistic valuable Movies are shown in Movie-theaters all around the city, one of the main Theaters is – as every year – the one at the Potsdamer Platz. What an coincidence. Potsdamer Platz is also the spot, Scientology uses nearly every Sunday for a Stresstest-Booth which is the be raided by Anonymous. And... that was the same story this Sunday, on Feb. 13th, 2011.
Last week there was no Stresstest-Booth (but Jonny Travolta was in town, so maybe every Scientology had to be in the Org). But today the cult had the – very obvious – idea to use the Berlinale for a bigger Booth. In fact: they had put up two booths with all the equipment, even chairs which we hadn't seen for months. And about fifteenth Scifags of all kinds of crazyness: old Scifags like Peter, how acted creepy as always, young woman from the SeaOrg, who thought that they could give us orders, lazzy Scifags who showed have handed out flyers put just stood there and – of course – some young male Scifags who looked like they would rater be somewhere else and who could not really handle the situation. It was fun. The idea was very simple: just crowed the place with Scifags on a day like this, where thousands of people rush past the place for the movie-theater.


[Lonely, lonely, oooohhhh, he's soooo lonely (and didn't have the money to buy a fitting jeans.)]


[Anons "guarding" the place. (Scifags are left of the picture.)]

And yes: for the first time for weeks it we had really something to do. They had managed to number us out (15 Scifags vs. 6 Anons, even something that hadn't happen for the last weeks), but we were more effective and welcomed by most of the passers-by. It was fun, again, because some of the Sicfags really seemed to believe that they could do something against us. I especially loved the young male Scifag who tried to hand out flyers nearby us and always moved more and more in our direction until we ask him something about his cult. Then he acted as if he didn't listen, but it was obvisious that he tried to hear more. So we told him e.g. that he could walk out the cult and could get some help. (But we also made jokes about him, so...)


[And again: Scifags stresstest Scifags. Only Scifags at the booth.]



The other question: did it worked out for Scientology to put up so many people on the booth? (Something they could only do for some time. Probably next weeks or the one after next week, they will be back to normal.) Yeah, sometimes. Again: most of the time the chairs were empty or Scifags had to strestest one another. But they really got some of the tourists on the booth. Even two or three books were given away. Main word is: given away. First I was: WTF? Is there really somebody who buys that books anymore? But then I realized that the next woman who got a book didn't pay anything and also didn't leave her address. The Sicfags gave away Dianetics for free. (Again: something which they couldn't do for a long time.) I don't know if they tried to fool us or if this was a special try to raise some stats (even if someone else will have to pay for it). But it was funny to see, that even when they gave away books for free, most of the people didn't want it.
One more thing: Ingo, the handler, was missing again. Scientology Berlin has some new Scifags at the top. And now it seems as if even Ingo is degraded. So most of the Scifags who were important three or two years ago are now unimportant. First Reinhard Egy and Sabine Weber (and so much more), now even Ingo. (Only Peter stays at the bottom of the hierarchy.)
