"FDSSB" and Its Deceptive Public Posturing
FDSSB: Acronym For "Former Devotees of Sathya Sai Baba"
A Bogus "Global Coalition":
F.D.S.S.B - When All Else Fails - Deceive the Naive:
FDSSB, is described by Anti-Sai Activists as being a "Global Coalition".
Oddly enough, despite "FDSSB" allegedly being a "Global Coalition", it does NOT have:
- A proper domain.
- A written objective.
- A public forum.
- An online newsletter.
- Known public sponsorships.
- Conferencing schedules.
- Collaborations.
- Memberships.
- A board of directors.
- A FAQ's page.
- Annual Reports.
- Public Events.
- Funding Policies.
- Publications.
F.D.S.S.B. meets none of the basic criteria that are part and parcel of "global coalitions". Despite this fact, the bogus-coalition "FDSSB" (run by Glen Meloy and Barry Pittard), has the phrases "Office of Communications" and "Media Relations Department" on a web-page that attempts to pass itself off as looking bona-fide and official.
This deceptive attempt to con the general public with a bogus "global coalition" claim proves that Ex-Devotees will stoop to whatever level it takes to spread their malicious, contradictory and unsubstantiated stories and allegations against Sathya Sai Baba.
Here are two of these deceptive web pages, dispersed by "FDSSB":
- home.hetnet.nl/~ex_baba/engels/letters/glenshocket.html
- home.hetnet.nl/~ex_baba/engels/shortnews/glengoogle.html
One will notice that Anti-Sai Activists are simply taking articles previously published on their website and are duplicating them on "official" looking web-pages, stating "for immediate release". This type of behavior is undeniably dishonest.
On the first link cited earlier, there is a letter written by Barbara Shocket, who is a licensed mental health counselor, in Florida. I cannot help but to question her integrity when she said:
"The 'rights' of pedophiles are severely restricted by our American society. We have to assume their culpability, until proven otherwise (unlike other felons)."
It is obvious Barbara Shocket is being disingenuous. ALL criminal allegations (including pedophilia) are treated the same way: "Innocent Until Proven Guilty". Since Barbara Shocket said we should "assume" that anyone who is accused of sexual impropriety is guilty until proven innocent, anyone can falsely accuse her of "pedophilia" and we must assume that she is culpable until proven otherwise! Needless to say, this is right out false and fallacious. Once a person is convicted of pedophilia, their rights are, indeed, severely restricted. This is after a conviction. Not prior.
Needless to say, Sathya Sai Baba has never been charged with any crime, sexual or otherwise.
On the second link cited earlier, one will notice that Glen Meloy (now deceased) seemed to attribute something special to the Secret Swami Documentary being indexed on Google. Needless to say, my webpages about the Secret Swami programme outrank those from the exbaba domain.
