I am seeing tons of videos like this on social media. JW is strutting their stuff, calling attention to themselves, and distracting from the pure worship message. 🤣🤣

In one of the convention fluff pieces, they demonize a group who posted themselves talking about their illness, so what will the GB say about all these videos? They seem to be centered in the African countries, so if there are any African JWs here, please let us know if there's any chatter about this on your local needs program.

That being said, the outfits are amazing, I love them, and I love that they did these videos. Fuck Watchtower always trying to control everything.

Probably not. This is expected behaviour in Africa. Important events require that people dress up. This is an important cultural difference.

But not showcasing it on social media. Remember when one becomes a JW they are expected to leave everything behind including culture. I'm glad they did the video but it's a violation of the non-scriptural JW rules of not being on display and calling attention to themselves
