Amber Scorah gave one at a TedX event which is more local and centralized than an actual TED conference, and hers wasn't just about bagging on the religion, she's a big parental leave advocate and talks about dangerous daycares, etc:

There's also a big difference between her and that cockroach:

"She was named one of the 100 most influential people in Brooklyn culture by Brooklyn Magazine. Her writing has appeared in The New York Times, The Believer, The Boston Globe, The Cut, The Globe and Mail and USA Today."

Lloyd has to kiss Trey Bundy's ass and suck up to Rinder for screen time on their sites and shows, whereas Amber is a real, accomplished writer. Her book had a real publisher (Penguin) whereas he just slapped together and self published an 800 page brick.

I can't imagine Lloyd having success at a real conference with people who aren't all xJWs desperate for someone to speak up about the religion. Remember the video I posted about his cringe interview with BBC where he rambled on about nothing? Imagine 18 minutes of that.

He's also holding steady at 402 patrons. He was at 424 the last week of last month so even if a few come straggling back, that's 20 he lost this month alone. It's been almost a year since this all went public and he's only losing more traction the more time that goes on.

Hey Lloyd since we know you read this, just remember what you've already been told... you brought this all on yourself. You. Your fault and your fault alone. You treat your wife like shit, you treat the exJW community like shit, you treat people in other communities like shit, you treat victims of human trafficking like shit. You're the biggest hypocrite on the planet and have the emotional maturity of a spoiled toddler.

Since you're suddenly whipping out bible verses at people, go look up that one about reaping what you sow. Then look up the meaning of the phrase "consequences for your actions" since it seems you've never stumbled across it before. Worthless POS.

Hold on a second. He's in a 1 bedroom apartment? So, he doesn't have his girls stay overnight? I'm not saying they should be spending their free time with this pig but a responsible father, especially one self-employed like him, should be planning on taking care of their kids half the time or at least as much as possible after a split.

I bet fifty bucks he doesn't have the girls spend the night because it's too much work to take care of them for more than a few hours, plus it gets in the way of karaoke and trolling for "company." He bitches about having to pay for a simple haircut and doesn't even get an apartment where they can have a room to themselves, but has money for a full studio to make stupid YouTube videos. What a POS father.

Is there any chance that he did a Ted talk, but that it didn't get posted?

He had to share that he was doing a "comedy" routine at some bar and posts pics of his karaoke night and some stupid toy he bought himself... I doubt he'd do a Ted talk without blabbing about it all over the place. Plus it would give him a chance to ask for more patrons to support his worldwide ~~preaching work~~ activism.

He needs to realize that people are strapped for cash now more than ever. If he's not giving them something of value, they're going to consider their donations carefully. Now that he's been dropped from that documentary and isn't likely to be featured on any other TV programs, and has nothing to do with lawsuits or criminal cases against them, why keep giving him money? His YouTube is also rubbish, just rehashing the same rebuttal "sushi" (WTF is that?). He can forget any interviews of substance anytime in the future.

Watchtower is also crumbling from the inside. More and more are realizing their teachings are bullshit and they're sick of crusty old elders telling them what to do. WT also can't keep the abuses and hypocrisies secret anymore.

So maybe people were happy to pay someone, anyone, money to attack the WT ten years ago but it's just not as needed anymore. Especially not Lloyd, who's been reduced to showing up at open meetings with random MPs and a whopping 17 people in the room, and trying to "informal witness" to the occasional JW on the street.

And did he ever give that promised Ted Talk? Of course not. Maybe he found out they don't pay their speakers and not everyone who speaks at their conferences is included in their Ted Talk videos. And they weren't going to let him talk any longer than anyone else, and god forbid he need to keep his ramblings short and sweet. We all know it's not about presenting information, it's about being famous and there was no guarantee of that so why put in the effort, as far as he's concerned. Lying sack of shit.

He literally just lost another one in the time it took me to post that an hour ago. Again, I know some will return but yikes...

I think that's 10 he's lost with the first of the month rollover...? I'm sure a few will come back but still, it's going in the right direction and hasn't gotten anywhere near to bouncing back like I'm sure he assumed it would.

Yes, he give them the "Illusion " his still a Big important activist

IMHO Lloyd needs to take a step back and regroup, start from scratch... except I don't think he has the attention span or smarts to do it. That AAWA guy got his website started those years ago, and over the years he's just thrown things at the fridge to see what sticks. He's been lucky with the YT channel and book and hounding people in bigger circles (Remini, etc) for attention but that's over now. His videos might hit 8K views, he's lost his footing for this next book he's supposedly writing, and he doesn't have the talent needed to rebrand himself properly (seriously, WTF was with that Mormon video series? "God's buffet"? Sheesh)

I think it's obvious he's floundering, flailing around trying to get an audience. Any person with a clue would realize they need to rework their public image about now, but I imagine he only wants to do the fun stuff of writing and blathering away in front of the camera. All that boring nonsense of building a website, setting goals and making a plan, getting organized, retooling his channel... meh. That's for someone else. He has lobster buns and karaoke to get to.

Since I know you're still reading Lloyd, be sure to put a fork on your next shopping list... then stick it in you, you're done.
