First, he's describing Kim's warning statement as an "ongoing" and "persistent" campaign

Not trying to make a direct comparison with Lloyd and Jim Jones, but Jones had a similar situation when his volunteer lawyer Tim Stoen defected. He was his right-hand man and knew most of the secrets, especially financial info. Though there were other defectors, Jones saved his vitriol for Stoen. He claimed that he was out to destroy them, similar to Lloyd's claims about Kim Silvio. In his final recorded speech where he gave the order to drink the Kool-Aid, Stoen was mentioned several times as Jones played the victim of his persistent attacks. In the aftermath of Jonestown, investigators found that in the school Jones set up, the students in their grammar classes used Stoen's name repeatedly to describe the misery of the "attacks" on Jonestown.

Lloyd's constant mention of Kim and stirring up his followers in hatred of her is boilerplate cult behaviour. He has to know that she has the evidence all on Whatapp both with him and with his wife. He's a wounded animal and is hoping his followers carry him to the finish line as before.

But it's been over 3 months and this is not going away.

Aslo question ,there was some PERK

It's described in the link you posted:

For $150: collaboration with the backer so that their story of successfully escaping an abusive belief system (300 words max) features along with others in the final pages of How to Escape From Jehovah's Witnesses. The text will be written by the author but will include a minimum of one quote worded by the backer. The backer will also be allowed to include a black and white photo with their story (with the author's approval of the image) if desired. This perk comes with a complimentary signed, advance copy of How to Escape From Jehovah's Witnesses (mailed 3 weeks / 21 days before it is released on Amazon) with the backer's name in the Acknowledgments. (The author reserves the right to issue a refund for this perk if the story is not a good fit for the book.)

The controversy was for the $150 perk where he was soliciting exit stories, many of whom were CSA survivors. Though he worded it carefully, he was claiming complete editorial control over what the backer wrote, saying at least one sentence would be a direct quote. Some questioned the integrity of soliciting for profit stories from CSA survivors. His response was a snotty "If you don't like it then don't get that perk". So partly due to his attitude and the fact his other book had just been released, it didn't sell well. He only collected $5000+ dollars, whilst he cleared $20,000 USD for the indiegogo campaign for The Reluctant Apostate:

It's all about the money. He loathes activism and especially exJWs. How many times has he reminded us that he's "seriously considering" leaving activism and how exJWs torment him? He said so on the livestream and in several social media posts. He spoke about retiring to an island and writing books on the Gold interview. If you are still a Patron, you are effectively setting him up for retirement.

Leave out the sex worker vacations for a second and reflect on the tweet pasted below. Is giving money to Lloyd Evans a good use for your money you thought was going to fight WT?

Also: Since he was "forced" to put the info about his infidelity into the book, he might as well go about and do it.

You can't make this shit up!

Nobody forced him and he said he put it out there as a full disclosure. Sounds to me that he put it in to soften the blow of a current/future sex scandal.

See!? I told you I was messed up sexually!

Cheating on his wife every 2-3 months for 4 years with prostitutes, and holding the threat of "I'll kill myself if you do anything about it" over her? Esp. if, as I get the impression, she maybe lost a brother or other relative that way (?)

I caught that too. Kim directly mentioned Dijana's brother (who had never been spoken about by either of them) killing himself. And Lloyd is now using the same threat because he knows it will trigger her. It seems like whenever she gets closer to the divorce he starts using that card. Despicable and completely deserving of a slap to the face should he show up anywhere.

Lloyd spoke about everything else in his book but never said a thing about her brother's suicide. Was it JW related? I get the impression Dijana was either a born-in or came in at a very young age. To be fair, maybe she asked him not to include it. But at the same time, when has Lloyd ever respected her wishes? He mentioned she didn't want to be mentioned in the livestream but went ahead and did so several times. It's been stated before that she didn't want to appear in his videos, but he kept using Patron requests for her to show up and so she did.

The suicide of her brother which quite possibly was JW related is a huge omission. I'm thinking he only held that card close to his vest because he was using it as a means to control her whenever things got bad. I remember when he was on this forum how he would reveal that he suffered from depression and these adverse comments were driving him toward the brink.

Turns out he was using the same manipulation tactics on his wife. Seriously though, she needs to get him to leave, and failing that take the girls and get out of there. Call his bluff.

Appointing himself “Senior Editor” isn’t even the most egregious example of his self-indulgence. (Being that he started the blog, could there be anymore more senior than him?)

On the JLE Translation Services page, he listed himself as “Director” and his wife as “Lead Translator”. Not only did he barely know any Croatian and was not qualified in any way to translate, it made no sense for him to be a Director and run the business side of things since most documents are from Croatian to English and a good portion of his clientele couldn’t speak to him.

And Grundy had the nerve to post on this site that Lloyd could have been making way more off translation than activism. He proofread her translations and took most of the credit.

He resigned. Still registered at his dad's address.

Was he listed as being in Croatia or still a UK resident.

My mistake, Lloyd was listed as Secretary, not Director. This company was founded in 1999 with this same setup up and was even signed and witnessed to by his late mum. Lists his dad as sole shareholder, and the address for Lloyd is the same as his dad at their home in Wilmslow.

I reckon daddy was upset about his Thai vacay

Or it didn't bode well for him in the divorce case being an active director of a British company and he asked his dad to sack him?

That also raises another question- is the civil suit just for show?

He was clear in his last series of tweets that this is a criminal complaint, whereas the civil suit will be filed after the criminal one is ~~dismissed~~ er sorry, "handled". The civil suit actually is not as crazy as the criminal one, but that's not saying much. Not to say it can't be done, but you need to be ready to throw some serious cash down when it comes to foreign nationals. Think Meghan Markle. We all know that when it comes to spending his own money, Lloyd is one of the cheapest out there. And if he somehow had all that money to initiate civil suits all over the world, we're talking "hey, shouldn't you be buying a home with that money instead of wasting it on civil suits against people unlikely to pay?"

I want him to continue making a fool of himself. His actions are clearly driving down his Patreon support and I love how his behavior has brought us all closer together. Keep it up Lloyd

With anyone else I'd advise to not bait him lest it discourage him, but Lloyd always seems to take up the challenge no matter how stupid it is when he feels insulted. He's dug his heels in quite deep and it's going to be fun to watch him squirm when things don't go his way. He's going to go full-on Atticus Finch on us pleading about how unjust the system is. He was blaming everyone he could tag for Brexit because he had lost £12 because sterling had taken a nosedive.
