The farthest he went with Andrew Gold was to withdraw his measley £1.50 recurring donation to Andrew.
Andrew was surely quacking in his boots.

I suspect they would not touch him with a ten foot barge pole. And this talk of going back to the UK. There's zero chance of that.
There's a very good reason he fled the UK, and the Clue's are in his book.

Speaking of costs, what the hell did he need fundraiser for? The printing and publishing costs at Amazon are charged when a book sells. If he hired some one to edit it doesn't show in the final product.
Another grift to fleece his adoring flock, because that is what he does best. I still have his sneering smirk imprinted in my brain when he announced the bootleg copies of CoC on his channel. You could see his disdain right there.

He would have made quite a profit of his book. Remember he had a fundraiser to pay for the printing costs and the publishing cost, he even made a profit with these costs too.

Remember as president he "accidentally" doxed a lot of people because he wanted to destroy everything that was good.
This was all his doing. This is the person that people still seem to worship. He is Jehovah, the Hateful god we used to worship.

I obviously consider myself an activist
🤣🤣
I would definitely draw the line at picketing memorials as was once encouraged by a certain ex-poster on this forum.
Can't help getting the digs in can he
I do consider writing books and website articles a form of activism, because it takes effort
Yep, his hands do seem to do a lot of work.
It gets wearisome at times, but I allow myself to be fuelled by the positive feedback
Because you do not allow any criticism whatsoever.
"when they're ready, they will come to us"
Translated hence the quotes, come to him.
I agree that you need to have doubts in the first place in order to do the research and put the effort in.
Wait I thought you Lloyd was the only person who woke people up?
Cedars
If there is any takeaway from all the cedars/Lloyd debacle, this is one thing we need to see significance in. He used to sign off everything with his signature, he did think he was the authority in everything. Even back then his ego really did shine through.

It's definitely a good attempt but it would be better with the Cheshire (northern English) accent he has. Although the AI is good it is a little bit southern england to me.
I'm a hybrid Northern English/Scottish accent speaking person myself.

To break free from addiction one has to first come to terms they have an addiction. I have what you can call an addictive personality, and I am now self-aware enough to know when addiction takes hold, and it can come in many forms.

If this is causing him so much trauma, then he should seek help to come to terms with that trauma, not revisit it every day. Some people make videos as a form of therapy to come to some sort of acceptance. Apparently, Lloyd does it to stay the perpetual victim.

Just posted on Patreon. Notice no mention of a certain court case.
Hi folks!
It's been a while since I've given you an update on developments behind the scenes, so here goes!
February has been a slow month for me because I've been battling a weirdly-lengthy cold-flu virus which has majorly impacted my productivity. I was really hoping to get a video out today (i.e. right at the end of the month) but unfortunately despite my best efforts it just hasn't worked out the way I wanted. I'm therefore going to try to hit the ground running in March and focus on clearing some more of the backlog of videos requested by my amazing patrons and YouTube channel members.
Despite setbacks it has still been a relatively productive start to 2024. I have assembled a new JW Watch team of passionate and knowledgeable fellow ex-JWs who can collaborate and advise on future projects. I've also resumed work on the Second Edition of The Reluctant Apostate, which will be made available simultaneously in English and German! So far we on schedule to release both versions (and hopefully, an audiobook!) in early 2025.
Since January 1 the channel has grown by around 800 subscribers, which is great news and definitely motivates me to continue!
It's still challenging to settle into a rhythm after closing my production company in October. I obviously no longer have a video editor so a lot more time, effort and thought needs to go into each upload even though there are fewer of them. For now I am just doing my best to avoid burnout by churning out content according to my capacity in terms of time and mental health.
In the coming weeks I will be revamping my store as I think merch is a really cool way for people to support the channel while getting something back in return. I have also been giving some thought to the Patreon/YouTube channel member tiers and how they can be streamlined. If you are a patron/member and there are specific rewards that you would really like to see made available, or any areas in which I could improve as a content creator, please comment below as I am very interested in your feedback.
For now I just want to sincerely thank all of you who take an interest in my channel, especially the 443 of you currently supporting it as patrons and channel members. It's very difficult to keep dipping into my religious experience - a source of profound personal trauma - to produce resources that will help people escape abusive cults. But knowing I have the support of so many of you is extremely heartening and makes my work significantly easier! Thank you!
Lloyd
