For everyone asking for Bread and Roses invites;

BreadnRoses.net is the site

if you can afford it, I would ask to please consider purchasing the account. We can send out invites, but right now that's twice as much work to get people without PMs, in random threads.

If you HAVE already registered with a paid account; we let you through, paypal was being wonky and not letting auth happen

For those who got a previous invite and are being asked to register; give us a bit to manually auth it.

If you have PMs, and are in discord/IRL with another good who wants in but doesn't, PM me with their info/username/be a gobetween for the invite codes maybe.

If you have PMs and cannot afford the PM me. This might take a bit.
We are uh

We got a whole lot of registrations

That's doomed to fail and any price other than $10 for comedy purposes would be too much, and frankly I'm probably being generous with the $10.

Do what you think you gotta do, but I hope y'all can recognize when to just cut yourself loose.

either SA goes on without Lowtax or it doesn�t go on. no other options imo.

You got a twitter account or something similar on the off chance lowtax abruptly pulls the plug before the mod team settle on a plan / offsite?

I do have a twitter account under my forums name, but I�m not going to self-advertise. I�m not hard to find tho.

2 possibilities i can think of

1) lowtax's patreon hits 0 and he destroys the forums out of spite

2) chuds somehow get wind of this and make lowtax a millionaire in the name of free speech

Yeah I am afraid of the latter possibility. He needs the money, he needs the mods, and he might be able to get both by making SA a Nazi safe space. He's already hated by the community as it stands, so why not go full joker mode?

Longtime lurker since 2005, read the forums with the lovely curse filter for years before ponying up my :10bux:

in 2008. Hardly ever post but read the forums daily, LF in the 2008 election was a formative political experience for me and CSPAM continues to be. Thank you to all the good posters who make this community worthwhile, I hope something like it can persist somewhere.

Signed up for BnR and paid a much more worthwhile :10bux:

there under username Frenzied Cow, and doing the Discord thing as well.

SA is his identity. He wouldn't sell it for megabucks at the height of its popularity, I doubt he will now.

I feel like modmins are overstating their own importance. He has cleared house and installed a new crew before.

I do not feel optimistic.

First C-Spam is gonna get banned

Then all the rules regarding hate speech and all that get revoked.

Subforums dedicated to 'Alternative Views' get created to foster the Alt-Right subset.

Slowly those subforums start taking over the rest of the forums.

As much as lowtax might think otherwise, these forums don't exist without us. He goes or we go.

ive shat on every time people thought lowtax was doomed and i�ve been right every time. this is probably the big one though. i hope that SA is taken over in an orderly fashion, or an organized, centralized new forum is created instead of each subforum creating tiny niche off-sites
