It is interesting to me, archivist, that you are "getting cranky" because ex-members are talking about this at an ex member board. It is also interesting to ask ex members to e-mail the source with regard to why they still link to Moscow FCF. Frankly, I don't care at this point.
Not long ago and well after LBP announced upcoming break from FCF, there was a section on their website that was for FAQ's (frequently asked questions). One of those was whether or not they were associated with FCF to which they answered that they were. Only very recently is there a statement at the Perm site which is copied and pasted above.
You know there are levels of secrecy even in the exer community that remind me of the family. Some seem to love being in the position of having "information" and being on that cutting edge of helping some well-known family members get out. You know what? I don't care about the well knowns. They have plenty of people to care about them and cater to them in the "exer community". I prefer to be more distanced from the breath of the dragon and help where I can with ordinary people who burnt out on the group and weren't a family celebrity of sorts. And I don't care what their age is either.
I hate the organization "The Family" or whatever name it goes by now. But I don't hate the vast majority of members that are in it that were either joining it as an adult, born in it, entered as teens I DON'T CARE. We were there once too. And people hated us.
