I can’t tell you how many times I heard the Ambot parrot his upline “Don’t say negative!” This was usually after I commented on how expensive an Amway product is or how shitty it tastes.
The upline cult leaders, usually the pompous sack of shit Platinum, but occasionally the Emerald, would jabber on about don’t let negative influences into your life.
What a sheltered life that would be for people. I suppose I can see why the cult leaders don’t want their downline to be influenced by outside forces who can reason, tell them the truth, and show the IBO’s that they’re wasting their time and money on trying to build an Amway business.
They’d say don’t read newspapers, don’t watch TV, don’t listen to the radio. Most of all they’d say don’t listen to people who aren’t in Amway.
Yet these same Amway cult leaders all seemed to know what’s going on in the world. How can they do that unless they’re watching TV or reading a newspaper?
And these bastards were the most negative people around, ironically enough despite all their sermons not to allow negative influences into your life. At every Amway meeting, they’d jabber on about Starbucks locations closing down or other businesses closing their doors. They’d spout off tons of doom and gloom about the recession and people losing their jobs. The fucking assholes in the Amway upline were the most negative people around!
Drop out of Amway and that’s a big load of negative you’ll also be dropping.
The up-line assholes in Amway are constantly screaming about how all "brick-and-mortar" stores are going to close down soon, and all that will be left is on-line MLM selling and buying. "Get into Amway NOW!" they scream, "before you miss the boat!"
ReplyDeleteIt's total bullshit. Amway freaks have been screaming this lie at potential recruits for twenty-five years, and brick-and-mortar stores are still everywhere, and are the places where persons like to shop. Even a great deal of on-line shopping is done via traditional retailers who simply have an on-line store for persons who live in remote areas, or who prefer to stay at home.
Persons in Amway LOVE TO TELL LIES! They revel in predicting all sorts of horrible apocalyptic futures in a world where only Amway assholes will be financially secure. Yeah, sure -- some stupid dweeb in Rat's Ass, Kansas, with a garage full of unsold XS drinks is going to be a millionaire.
Don't let "negative influences" into your life? OK, fine. In that case, here's my advice to all readers:
DON'T LET THE LYING SCUM IN AMWAY INTO YOUR LIFE! They are the biggest negative influence on the planet.
Anonymous - this is all so true about the Amway scam. These Amway losers are always flinging lies and bullshit. All cults use similar scare tactics. Charles Manson and Jim Jones scared their followers into believing dumb shit because theirs was the only way for survival.
DeleteAmway cult leaders are no different. The message they preach is being duplicated all over the Internet by Amway losers. It generally goes to the effect that there are no other types of business out there, no other business owners except for Amway "business owners". And they're all going to get rich and laugh at all the dumb fucks who were too stupid to believe them and join Amway the cult of greed.
How's that strategy working out for most of them?
