Blown for Good: Scientology Exposed The Severance Factor: Scientology's Parallels to TV's Darkest Workplace Drama - Severance & Scientology #1
Marc and Claire Headley explore the eerie similarities between Apple TV's hit show "Severance" and their 15 years as executives in Scientology's Sea Organization headquarters, finding the dystopian workplace drama to be a near-perfect parallel to their actual experiences.
• The show's core concept of "innies" and "outies" mirrors Sea Org life where members exist almost exclusively in work mode
• Founder "Kier Egan" clearly references L. Ron Hubbard, complete with busts, memorized quotes, and office spaces in every location
• "Break room" interrogations using the "woe meter" directly parallel Scientology's "ethics" interviews using the E-meter
• Clay demonstrations in "Severance" identical to mandatory clay modeling in Scientology courses
• "Wellness sessions" in the show reflect Scientology's TR bullbaiting where members must remain emotionless during provocations
• Scientology deliberately separates spouses by transferring them and falsely telling each that the other wants divorce
• The show's portrayal of surveys mirrors Scientology's exhaustive use of surveys for measuring public perception
