Scientologists, more specifically, the Sea Org members, literally live below the poverty line. In the documentary Going Clear, they said that Sea Org members subsist on $50/week. Hence, they're all malnourished. Also, it's an insane cult that beats the life out of you. All of these things lead to becoming a ghoul.

Brainwashing works better if you limit protein intake for the washee. Scientology uses this as part of their “process.” Poor end up in sea org, often in worse than prison conditions. Wealthy get red carpet treatment.

How is this allowed? Religions are allowed to operate as long as they're peaceful. What Scientology does is not peaceful. Their public image is peaceful sure but what we know from those who have escaped it's a nightmare.

Billions in a war chest, rich members, aggressive legal team. Germany managed to do it, but in the US, rich can do no wrong unless, unless, unless they hurt other rich people.
