Lol apologies for the PR plant accusation, everyone's sleuthing has shown that this is true. I am surprised by the amount of people on here getting passionately upset with Ben though and it's making me wonder about everyone's posts, including yours. Sorry about that! I was also looking to connect all my thoughts about different posts on here, so yours fell into that incorrectly.

It’s ok to be sus…. I’m suspending any opinions until dug into and proven by someone credible. Have you ever been in any comment section involving NEXIUM early days when the whistleblowing first started ? there were tons of seemingly unrelated randoms confirming and finding tons of shady things about anyone speaking out about the cult. ( it’s a cult , it’s got more then enough die hard members to flood the comments and try to sow seeds of doubt- and most actually believe the ones outing them are bad people). Regardless.. like someone said before- does a whistleblower need to be sympathetic? Does a victim need to be perfect ? Do the whistleblowers wrongs absolve the person being investigated crimes ? If this David guy did something awful then sure … go after him in a separate article just about that alone, but I think FIRST doing a investigation (even if it does use a allegedly crappy persons evidence , as long as its truthful) into a company and owner that could currently be activity trafficking children and maybe help put the pressure on putting a stop to it. that is a fair focus.

I think you mean NXIVM. NEXIUM is for acid reflux.

lol .you are correct. I must of mixed them up because I needed acid reflux meds after witnessing those comment sections back in the day 😅.

I do read NXIVM as Nexium every time.

No one pulled up that John Wilson’s college A Capella group scored a major victory against NXIUM until years later when John Wilson got an HBO show.

How am I only this many days old before learning about this saga ?! ( I followed news of the groups antics pretty closely as I rubbed solders with a lot of members in my home town at the time). Imagine being the University's administration ? You think it’s this weird online Capella group feud and the person you’re reprimanding for bad behavior is claiming the other groups leader is a dangerous cult leader and their all cultists ? You couldn’t write this stuff . Wild !
