I mean it could be argued that by revealing this "scheme", the TL org can no longer be trusted with any public statements it's made. They seemed to portray themselves as taking the moral high ground but were actually straight up dishonest about their intentions. The hypocrisy is one things to consider, but I think the bigger issue that doesn't sit well with people has to do with integrity, and the question is if they're content with trying to fool their followers this way, couldn't and wouldn't they have misled and lied to these followers before? For how long? Were the management of this org morally bankrupt the whole time?

The same could be asked of the other orgs, but they didn't open themselves up to scrutiny the way TL did.
