Alyssa Grenfell’s newest video (released today) gives an hour-long overview of Joseph smith’s predatory practices around polygamy. It’s a tough watch, but very much worth it.

None of what she presented was news to me. And the patterns she presents I had already noticed when I had done my own deep dive on this just over a year ago. But she really has a gift for explaining things in a clear and succinct way, and having it all laid out so clearly in a straightforward one hour discussion hits really hard.

If you left the church for other reasons and have not done a real deep dive on Joseph smith, this video will absolutely slam the door on any remnant thoughts about whether Joseph smith was a true profit or not.
