I've been willing to forgive a lot of lovely things lowtax has done bc they're reflective of the kind of person who can keep a forum frozen in the amber of web 1.0 for so long but good God drat if he's just beating up women

I don’t understand this request. to do what? I don’t think all the admins actually have database access, the way that it is handled is arcane and bizarre apparently.

So that lowtax doesn't have control over the back catalog of posts, the post's are the core IP

Yeah this is totally true. If I just stop giving Lowtax any more money but still use the site if it survives the week, am I complicit?

So cloudflare hosts the forums and deplatformed 8chan already, we should at least tweet at them directly and let them know we are displeased

While it's definitely cool and good that general opinion has turned against lowtax for good, he has done this (at least) twice before over years and years and it is a matter of public court record, on top of the many just personally lovely things he has said or done to prior staff or modmins, so I'm not sure why THIS time was finally the last straw for everyone.

Also Discord is 100% directly plugged into PRISM and every other alphabet soup data mining initiative on top of being trawled by kiwi farms so be extremely frosty if you're headed that way with leftish poo poo.

even if it actually goes that far it'd likely be a couple years before an actual conviction

He's not convicted but he's caught in the act for sure. Cloudflare pulled 8chan's hosting and drove it underground just for it being sketchy as hell and causing them a lot of bad publicity. These big services don't want anyone to raise a ruckus about who they're platforming these days.

before any of this goes, it's time to say the forbidden word one last time

you knew that Integral was going to come down on you, Lowtax, so you made it a word no one could say.

isn't it weird that the whole forum system was designed to punish people that breathed a word about what went down between him and his girlfriend?

you might say his policing of the forums was.... integral.... to his entire domestic abuse recruitment and grooming operation

Crossposting:

I know you mean well [to explore the option of doing a GoFundMe for Logan Day or LadyAmbien] and so I don't post this to be mean or anything but I don't see GoFundMe going well in this situation. Logan Day is still in the situation where she appears to be rationalizing her own abuse and isn't ready to break away yet, and LadyAmbien/Ashli has explicitly asked us, the mods, to try not to involve her in any forums drama to the best of our ability for the sake of her kids and ongoing legal trouble of her own.

Yeah I think the only way to get the goods is to defund him (going well), get him banned from patreon (def possible), and go after hopefully his cloudflare acct like they did with 8chan

Hopefully at some point she'll be willing to talk about it to patreon/cloudflare/whoever does the actual hosting so we can get lowtax fully deplatformed by the big tech persona non grata machine like the rest of the alt right douchebags before him

Ive known a few people with mental illness and it does tend to play out like this with insane accusations and strange tearful apologies. However this is not in isolation, apparently there is a history of this across multiple partners so most people are going to heavily tilt towards this being his fault alone.
