I wanted to get a full definition of the word "solidarity" as he does use it a lot. The first point is very interesting indeed. Only his hardcore followers will be still following him now, and if anyone looking at the Reddit thread posted here may have seen some of his hardcore followers, the way they spoke freaked me out. They sound like they are in a cult.
These are some of the hardcore Lloydvidian comments taken from the Reddit post.
Sadly he used to be a pretty cool dude. He's an ex-JW and had a YouTube channel about helping others out with leaving their high-demand religions. No idea what the clip is about as I haven't watched his videos recently.
This guy is under the illusion that Lloyd was a cool guy at one time, Lloyd was never cool at all, he's always been a piece of shit.
He’s an Ex Jehovah’s Witness activist. He’s having an ongoing harassment campaign against him by other cult survivors. Infidelity isn’t awesome, but to get what he means by being tampered with, you really need to have lived it for yourself.
I’m also an Ex JW, and the first time I jerked off I began crying and I hit myself in the head out of despair for making the creator of the universe sad.This is the comment that has been edited to sound more cool. It did say that he cried the first time he jerked off, then somehow edited it to sound more crazy.
SsslitherssS·2 days agoHe doesn’t owe ppl an apology for cheating on his wife. He owes his wife that.
-3ReplySharelevel 2cappytan-exjw·2 days agoFor context, this guy regularly advocates against child sexual exploitation...it's part of his online persona, his grift...yet he frequents prostitutes in places like Croatia and Thailand.

But how do we know that he is fking minors? Is there proof?
0ReplySharelevel 4cappytan-exjw·1 day agoI'm not accusing him of fking minors.
However, most sex workers in places like Thailand get started in that form of work as minors. The lines of consent are very blurry in cases like that.
The issue is the hypocrisy of railing against an organization because of exploitation of minors while simultaneously supporting an industry notorious for exploiting minors.Then there is this comment, He doesn't owe anyone an apology, only his wife, this is basically parroting Lloyd's words verbatim. But then this poster seems to think that the rebuttal mentioned Lloyd using children.
his dude really helped me to leave that cult, big fan of his work and yeah he did go through that rough patch where he cheated on his wife, but that doesn't undo all the good he has done for the ex-JW community. He is a legend at what he does, and one cannot simply dismiss all the good he did because he got caught cheating. No one is perfect, and the amount of lives he has saved on his own is worth more in my eyes than his infidelity.
This comment here has to be one of the scariest of them all, completely dismisses his use of prostitutes in some of the most trafficked places in the world. No one is perfect apparently!Pretty sad that this guy rallied for a decade against the Jehovah's Witness cult, all their shunning, methodically destroying families, and their rampant child sexual abuse and cover-ups.
And most people, including most of reddit, couldn't be bothered to give a shit. But hey, some random dude cheated on his wife. That's the important issue that needs a massive spotlight! To the frontpage!Another Leave Lloyd Alone comment, he is imperfect, where have we heard that one from?
OP took this out of context...
This isn't an apology video so wtf are yall expecting. I'm guessing Brandon opposes Lloyd since he's a vocal opponent to the org (JW) so he's trying to discredit/misdirect Lloyd.
By the way, Lloyd will continue to focus on JW. They are a cult that tears families apart. JW has convinced Lloyds parents that they can not see Lloyd's children (their own grandchildren!) simply because Lloyd wasn't convinced JW was true and left the church. Its either step in line or lose your family. cult.Remember the end is just around the corner, just keep tithing Lloyd and he will bring an end to this system of things.
Admittedly, thank goodness, there are not many Lloydvidians in the comments, Lloyd has probably told them not to look at apostate material and to focus on the kingdom of Lloyd where one can masturbate without crying and drink prostitute's water free. But the language is very cult-like indeed. They believe that Lloyd is their savior, they have all basically escaped one cult and fallen into another one.
Lloyd never wanted to leave the Jehovah's Witnesses and was forced out, hence the branch rep being at his judicial, and Lloyd trying to blackmail him. So instead, he decided that he wanted to form his own cult and receive the adulation he would have gotten from the Jehovah's Witnesses. He got his wish and over the last ten or so years, he has been viewed as a god within the community, it's all falling apart for him now as more and more people stand up to this hot mess of a person. But there are those who still cling to him, and the way they speak is quite frightening, it is very cult-like, they believe they are doing the right thing, but their words to "worldly" people just sound crazy.
