It does feel as though a corner in this whole sordid story has been turned.
What happened is he finally gave up on getting his old level of support (almost 900) back. He also doesn’t feel any connection with exJWs anymore, even though all 4 (3 of which were sushis that he said he would discontinue) and the livestream were all about JWs. Though he has long promised to move on from exJW content, he’s likely scared his support will drop even further as his viewers start skipping his videos if they are not about what they came for.
This is his “New Coke” moment. A new product no one asked for nor are they interested in. If people want generalized cult content, Scientology/Mormons/Hare Krishna etc., they will go to those creators.
I’m curious as to how and if he eases the new content in.
I hope so, I for one am getting bored and tired of the whole thing.
I got bored with him after the AAWA stuff and thought he’d just fade away. I faded for a few years, then friends tipped me off to this asshole who was causing drama.
He’s like herpes. But his actions in the past two years have really put a lid on how high he can go. Gone are the days he goes to Australia and people pay his way. I doubt he’ll even have a public meetup ever again.
