If you sign away 51% of your company then realize that you just traded away control. That is on you.
I wonder if he’s using this incident or these events to get an out to take his following to his new ventures because he screwed up giving away all his power in trex.
It's much bigger than TREX.
When you're in a Cult, and if you're lucky enough to wake up one day and say, "
HOLY SHIT... I'M IN A FUCKING CULT!" then you need to take any opportunity you can to get the hell out.
...and even with that knowledge, there is a very-strong-incentive to stay in! Look at that weight room that he still has access to. Do you think his noodle arms have ever curled more than a MK12 with thousands of dollars of optics and lasers attached, standing in front of an expensive camera with a blue lens filter, operated by one of the faithful on their day off?
That's all paid for by farming out your flock and consolidating all their cash at the top, inside the "Botkin" household.
Oh and don’t borrow money from gangsters…….
If you get in bed with regular organized crime and become beholden to them, that's bad.
They will try to control your life, and you will spend it paying back at great interest.

This is a family drama that has no business in the public sphere. That is the ONLY hard conclusion that I have drawn. I don’t see this public family drama as being Christian one bit.
Well, they're not Christian... and some of their stuff sounds like it was very-obviously-lifted from Sunni Islam:
Lucas Botkin is using this event as the excuse to leave the Cult- and if anyone in the future asks, he and they can say, "Oh, it was some disagreement over a plastic holster company we all started."
The other Botkins that got out, like the lady above, probably get the Two Minutes of Hate at weekly Sunday Service.
