It's easy to have people leave the SGI. But it's hard to get SGI out of the people that leave. Since nowhere in the Lotus Sütra does it prescribe chanting only the title, as a practice, quitting is difficult because of fear, etc. Chanting is addictive, like being an alcoholic, it's a struggle to stop.

SGI gives Buddha lip service. No one reads the teaching of Shakamuni or even the Lotus Sütra. Stop reading letters by Nichiren, stop reading all Japanese Propaganda. Even Nich said, "all Japanese are liars." All leaders and monks are actors and power hungry. Japan is not the center of the world.

No one is a Bodhisattva. They are not human. Could you live in ether under the earth? No one is a Buddha. "only a Buddha and another Buddha can understand Buddhahood" if you can't think it, you can't say it. I read certain fake leaders say "how does it feel to be a Buddha?" it's nonsense from sincere believers who are sincerely wrong.
