Reply to comment by jWalkerFTW in So uh… are these Jehovahs Witnesses at the T stations ever going to go away? by jWalkerFTW

The ones at train stations just stand there and wish people a good morning at most. Seems pretty chill to me

Look into the cult. They are terrible, especially to their families. I don’t mind that they just stand there, but the organization is disgusting and the members do not act like good people in general

Their primary recruiting tactic is lovebombing. They flood vulnerable people with friendliness and a sense of belonging. This is especially effective on people that don't really have many connections otherwise, so it allows them to hold that person's social life hostage once the love starts becoming conditional.

I agree, I'll walk by them and they don't stop me and they're always smiling which I honestly have no problem with. If you're not harassing people or bothering them, do whatever you want.

It's not like those "charitable" organizations where they stand in front of you and say "you look like a nice guy! :D" and then try too hard to have a normal conversation with you up until they start asking for money.
