Nah I just mean that he posts this sob story about literally being crippled by debt and in bad health so goons throw tons of money at him and this is what he does. Like, no forum improvements or anything. I didn’t contribute to patreon but I looked at the page the other day and one post was “sorry I haven’t been posting anything”.

I’m guessing server bills are still piling up.

Yeah, that's frustrating too, I didn't get in on the patreon, but I did support the dude with money in other forms. Like I'm not stupid enough to believe that all his streaming/patreon/whatever money is going solely to the website, dude has kids and has to eat, but to find out the money is being spent on a sports car while there are rumors about the forums shutting down sucks pretty hard.

Also no better time than the present to poo poo post.

Based on my experience in left online spaces, I'd expect any veteran there to be subjected to eternal struggle sessions. DSA veterans is basically a group of medieval flagellants.

we've got a small community there, we try to avoid the flagellant experience. so far the military thread has been about dealing with the VA, and Ive answered a few questions from non-combat vets.

this is the thread I started when we had like 200 people, its uh. gone up since then

I really shouldn’t be surprised that he’s taken the patreon funding to lease a GTR.

Pretty sure the GTR was a few years back before the forums income fell off a cliff. Back when it wasn't a total sinkhole.

Every time I look at that GBS thread I learn something else I didn't know and it just gets worse.

Also, I'd managed to go a long drat time without seeing beecock that thread broke my winning streak. Honestly not as bad as it was built up to bee :imunfunny:

Some pretty loving amazing poo poo coming out about lowtax. I don't normally puddle around the rest of the forums so this was quite an eye opener.

The whole chud mra thing was quite a twist.

You know not what you ask. It's a wild ride that's been going on for decades apparently.

Maybe someone who knows more about the background of this would be better because I lack a lot of context.

Also lowtax apparently really likes feet.

I mean, here are the kinds of things I'm talking about :

Someone checked on his property taxes (I haven't seen the original claim, just people talking about it). He was using the Patreon spine money to fund one heck of a lifestyle. Giant house, multiple leased exotic cars, etc.

I had vaguely heard about him being a bad dad but the text where he severed with his daughter got (re)posted. It reminded me of what my goddaughter is going through with her shithead bio-dad, why the gently caress would you ever do something like that to your own child? :smith:

Something about him grooming an underage girl, I am not willing to dig any further on that one.

The GBS thread got temporarily nuked and scrubbed after someone posted something involving feet. Honestly nobody in 2020 gives a poo poo about someone having a weird kink so it was probably revenge porn-esque.

make's u think

This thing was sorta anti-climatic.

Tons of poo poo is found out about lowtax. He goes on some podcast to defend himself- no one really seems to listen/care. Then he’s supposedly just selling the forums off and the world keeps spinning.

I was expecting him to just ban everyone in the GBS thread as a final gently caress you.

I guess the most surprising thing is Slippery is still around and posting a lot.

Very disappointing, even though the forums are basically the only online community I consider myself apart of, I was 100% lusting for SOMETHING to happen, if anything, so I could feel...whatever??? again.

Right now, I have my hopes and dreams pinned on Lowtax trying to pivot his brand to being an "ironic" alt-right shithead streamer. Not because i want him to be successful, but because I want him to be forever tormented by some of these grudge holding motherfuckers.

I came on here and paid my dues in order to expand my horizons with the info posted and have only been on here 2 months or so. - I don't give a gently caress if I get banned for this. gently caress Lowtax and gently caress the mods.
