My story of what its like to be married to an Amway cult follower. I expose the lies that our upline told and what happens at Amway meetings and functions. I leave the explanations of why Amway is a poor business opportunity or the tool scam to other bloggers. This blog mainly exists to curse out my former upline, aka the cult leaders, and to let everyone know what kind of idiots I had to put up with. Feel free to join in or live vicariously!

Buy Nothing From Amway And Be Heard
2 comments:
Comments are moderated but we publish just about everything. Even brainwashed ambots who show up here to accuse us of not trying hard enough and that we are lazy, quitters, negative, unchristian dreamstealers. Like we haven’t heard that Amspeak abuse from the assholes in our upline!
If your comment didn’t get published it could be one of these reasons:
1. Is it the weekend? We don’t moderate comments on weekends. Maybe not every day during the week either. Patience.
2. Racist/bigoted comments? Take that shit somewhere else.
3. Naming names? Public figures like politicians and actors and people known in Amway are probably OK – the owners, Diamonds with CDs or who speak at functions, people in Amway’s publicity department who write press releases and blogs. Its humiliating for people to admit their association with Amway so respect their privacy if they’re not out there telling everyone about the love of their life.
4. Gossip that serves no purpose. There are other places to dish about what Diamonds are having affairs or guessing why they’re getting divorced. If you absolutely must share that here – don’t name names. I get too many nosy ambots searching for this. Lets not help them find this shit.
5. Posting something creepy anonymously and we can’t track your location because you’re on a mobile device or using hide my ass or some other proxy. I attracted an obsessed fan and one of my blog administrators attracted a cyberstalker. Lets keep it safe for everyone. Anonymous is OK. Creepy anonymous and hiding – go fuck yourselves!
6. Posting something that serves no purpose other than to cause fighting.
7. Posting bullshit Amway propaganda. We might publish that comment to make fun of you. Otherwise take your agenda somewhere else. Not interested.
8. Notice how this blog is written in English? That's our language so keep your comments in English too. If you leave a comment written in another language then we either have to use Google translate to put it into English so everyone can understand what you wrote or we can hit the Delete button. Guess which one is easier for us to do?
9. We suspect you're a troublemaking Amway asshole.
10. Your comment got caught in the spam filter. Gets checked occasionally. We’ll get to you eventually and approve it as long as it really isn’t spam.
You know, the problem with Amway is at root the entire ethos of consumerism. Buy, buy, buy! Mad, frenzied, crazed, uncontrolled buying is what keeps our system from collapsing.
ReplyDeleteWhen the 9-11 attacks occurred, the next day on television some goddamned government flunkey was up there, and the only thing he could say to the American people was "Don't stop buying!" That's when I gave up on politics for good. All this governmental shithead could think about, in a time of national tragedy, was "consumer confidence."
With Amway, the buying is directed and controlled by a greed-driven upline that wants to squeeze every red cent out of struggling IBOs. In America as a whole, the buying is encouraged as a way to keep companies profitable enough to pay dividends to their investors.
I'm not against capitalism. but this out-of-control, greed-driven mega-capitalism has to be chastised. DON'T BUY! Keep your purchases to the absolute bare minimum for necessities. Buy stuff at flea markets and antique shops rather than from stores. Trade with friends and neighbors when you can. Repair items rather than replacing them. Do everything you can to show your contempt for consumerist bullshit, whether pushed by Amway or by our government as a whole.
Anonymous - the problem with Amway is its a greed driven cult.
DeleteAgree that Amway cult leaders are like that goddamned government flunkey screeching buy buy buy, don't stop buying.
Good advice for a nation as a whole to recycle, reuse, trade, give away, but nothing that Amway Ambots can ever live by as long as a cult leader wants to make more money in commission off them.
