You do a good job of pointing out what can happen when something like AA [Alcoholics Anonymous] becomes corrupted. Much of your [Recovery Watch] page is entertaining and amusing, and it can do no harm.
But basically, you're clueless, and it will eventually get you.
In the meantime, regards...

In what way am I "clueless"? Please be specific.
Also, what will get me?

pure as the wind-driven snow?
Did the AA founders have only the public's good will in mind?
How much money did Lois Wilson, Bill's Widow, earn per year from profits
on the AA "Big Book" during the final years of her life?
