He couldn't read or write until age 20. Now, <a href="https://www.amazon.com/dp/163774708X/?tag=jordanharbing-20" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Child X</a> author Jamie Mustard is exposing how Scientology's Sea Organization warehouses children like livestock.Full show notes and resources can be found here: <a href="https://jordanharbinger.com/1270" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">jordanharbinger.com/1270</a>What We Discuss with Jamie Mustard:<ul><li>Children in Scientology's Sea Organization, where Jamie was raised, were treated as "livestock" — penned in squalid dormitories, denied education, and cared for by untrained adults deemed too unstable for public-facing roles. Jamie didn't attend school until age 20 and could barely write at that point.</li><li>The psychological conditioning began at age five, when Jamie signed his first "billion year contract" while still believing in Santa Claus. Children were taught that emotion was weakness — labeled "human emotion and reaction" — and punished or stigmatized if they got sick or hurt.</li><li>Jamie was present during the largest FBI raid in U.S. history (Operation Snow White), yet agents never investigated the children's living conditions.
