4. I'm not done...Mitch O'Farrell kept openly supporting Scientology.

In 2021, Mitch attended the Scientology holiday lighting celebration and helped to push the button turning the lights on.

5. What's stunning about the 2021 holiday lighting event is Mitch O'Farrell attended that event over one year after Karen Bass faced a ton of scrutiny for her past attendance at Scientology events.

At this point, Mitch is a top enabler of Scientology's criminal behavior.

6. Here's what Mitch O'Farrell said at this Scientology holiday lighting event in 2021:

“After 20 months of pandemic, now more than ever before we need an infusion of hope and happiness and optimism and love and mutual respect.”

7. LA City Councilman @Mitchofarrell said this about Scientology, a totalitarian cult that destroys people’s lives, separates families, bankrupts people, and inflicts horrific psychological devastation on them.

It's sick and unacceptable for a person holding elective office.

8. Many of you know about Scientology's abuses, but here's the thing that often goes unmentioned: Scientology is virulently anti-LGBTQ.

Not just your standard Christian church level anti-gay, but Scientologists believe that LGBTQ people are better off dead.

9. There has been plenty of reporting on this and it's a well-known fact.

Scientologists believe that LGBTQ people are better off dead. They consider them to be the most evil and dangerous people.

10. Scientology forces its members who share that they’re LGBTQ to go through horrific conversion therapy.

So you'd think that Mitch O'Farrell, who is gay, would want to stay away from an organization that forces LGBTQ people to go through conversion therapy.

Apparently not!

11. So here's how you can actually make a difference and help put a stop to Scientology's horrific abuses.

Mitch O'Farrell is up for re-election this November.

Ballots are out now.

Mitch's opponent is Hugo Soto-Martínez...a vote for Hugo is a vote AGAINST Scientology.

12. There are many Scientology properties in Council District 13, including the Celebrity Center.

Scientology desperately needs a councilman who is on their side.

Every single Scientologist who lives in District 13 will vote for Mitch O'Farrell...every single one.

13. Turnout is low in these local races which is how Mitch O'Farrell keeps winning.

If you live in district 13, please vote for Hugo Soto-Martínez.

If you don't live in district 13, please share this thread.

You can make a difference here for all the victims of Scientology.

14. One of the ways in which Scientology survives is by cozying up to elected officials like Mitch O'Farrell.

Mitch not only does nothing to expose Scientology's abuses but also endorses and supports these abuses by using his office to praise Scientology.

He is complicit.
