lazycoo & lastuseraccount123 'MLM' cults are self-perpetuating non-rational, or esoteric, ritual ritual belief systems instigated for the clandestine purpose of human exploitation. This means that 'MLM' cults are criminogenic by nature, i.e. they produce crime and are the product of crime. Once you understand this, you understand that every move that 'MLM' cult bosses make, fits into an overall pattern, and that no aspect of 'MLM' cultism should ever be examined in isolation.
For obvious reasons, 'MLM' racketeers only excommunicate adherents when their front companies come under external investigation.
Last year, the 'Herbalife' mob admitted that around 650 adherents had been 'terminated' for making various false claims which broke the organization's (previously unenforced) 'rules' and 'code of ethics'. Prior to this, a number of 'Herbalife' under-bosses had been 'terminated' for peddling 'leads' and 'lead generation systems.' However, one 'Herbalife' boss, John Peterson, who for many years had been deeply-involved with the 'leads' racket (but who apparently couldn't be 'terminated') was found dead in his pickup truck with a bullet in his head. Apparently, this was suicide, but it was in the financial interests of literally hundreds of 'MLM' racketeers, for any crimlinal investigation of Peterson to be prevented.
After 'Herbalife' came under federal investigation, predictably, the organization's bosses pretended affinity with federal and State law enforcement agencies and suddenly created their very own 'member compliance Dept.' (effectively their own police force) to monitor adherents. A former US Federal Trade Commisioner, Pamela Jones Harbour, was coopted (with stolen cash) to head this latest reality-inverting chapter of the 'Herbalife' fairy story. Ms. Jones Harbour even issued absurd statements claiming that she was a regular customer of 'Herbalife' products
Laughably, the 'Herbalife' board of directors is infested with shills who have made fortunes out of peddling 'leads.' They have also made countless outrageous false medicinal claims about 'Herbalife' wampum and have presented the so-called 'income opportunity' as a passport to Paradise. Like John Peterson, these 'Herbalife' crime bosses cannot be excommunicated.
If ever the 'FLP' racket comes under external investigation, i will guarantee that the same obstructive tactics will be followed.
