Diamondfrog, no, I'd misunderstood what LMsA said.

June he dropped the suit and who it was against
How did I miss that? He dropped the suit? The Croatian suit against seven people is dropped?

Is a drop of 20-30 overly-optomistic?

Evans' shenanagans take me mentally to an "other universe" paradigm. It's as though he has created a belief system and has now proselytized converts,... patreons and non-contributing proletariats, A loving, faithful wife tends to "forgive" to a point beyond ridiculous. A kind pat on her back, a sweet smile and a nod from her husband... and she's back in "hope for the best" mode,... even willing to subscribe to his bizarre paradigm if that will just get him to love her. Evans' contrived reality reminds me of the book "1984". See brief analysis below.

Book: 1984
"Doublethink
Doublethink, a term used to create a constantly moldable reality, is the idea that one can have two opposing beliefs at the same time. This method of thinking allows Ingsoc to lie without feeling like they're lying, as both the truth and the lie can exist. The three main principles of the Party, "War is peace," "Freedom is slavery," and "Ignorance is strength," are all representations of Doublethink.

"Blackwhite
Blackwhite is a term in Newspeak that refers to the willingness to accept anything the Party says as true. If a Party member claims "black is white," a clearly preposterous statement, because he was told this by this Party, this willingness shows an undying loyalty to the Party."

Lloyd's lawyers will probably start asking him to pay everything in advance, since they wouldn't want to wait until he's released from treatment to get paid.

I'm not on twitter, Kim, so I missed seeing it. But, my condolences on your feathers having been unjustly ruffeled. It always takes me at least a day to get over it when that happens to me. Plus, it helps to get over it when I can tell it to a good friend who completely sees my point. :)

I, too, have had the frustrating experience of wording a comment on something that's "just plain wrong" in an exceptionally gracious manner, and then having my "graciousness" weaponized against me. (I am not referring to anything on this thread,... just in case I might be misunderstood.)

Ermm... I think I know why Evens may have chosen to read that book. Here's more of it's blurb:
"God: An Anatomy Hardcover – Deckle Edge, January 25, 2022
"[A] rollicking journey through every aspect of Yahweh’s body, from top to bottom (yes, that too) and from inside out ... Ms. Stavrakopoulou has almost too much fun.”—The Economist"

We are on page 390. Just thought I'd mention this landmark.

Thanks so much, diogenesister. Just before you gave me this, it dawned on me that he is the ex patron of Evans whose video I'd watched. I'd even commented on his video and he gave me the little "like" emoji. So, I searched back through my screenshots and found the name of his video, found the video, copied the link,.. and got back here ...to read your post. Lol.
I've recently contacted Watchtower History, too. Yes. Thanks.
But I can't find a way to contact Truth Seeker Atheist other than on the comment section of his youtube channel. I can't put my email online for the public. And I don't have a go-between.
