  Is there a 'dark mode' available for this site?

  by ProdigalApostate in

  1. forum
  2. tech-support

  i view this site on my mobile browser and would prefer to use it in dark mode (white text on black background).

  dark mode helps conserve battery on an oled display used on most phones.

  how do i enable it for this site?

  Re: his claim that the company (which he is the sole owner of) wasn't bringing in a 6-figure revenue - €151,000+ is reported more than once:

  Interesting too how the telephone number listed is a UK number.

  Nothing suggests the company has been wound up.

  There is a change of address shown for 7.10.2023 (which shows the info on the page must be quite up-to-date). Q: why would you bother to change the address of a company if you were closing it down?

  Q: if he closed down his company, Ipsilon Media, when where does the book revenue, merchandise sales, ad revenue and Patreon donations go? Didn't they go through the company? Did they ever go through the company? If not, what did the company do? Where do they go now - is it straight to him, and I wonder if he declares the income?

  I know with things like Google Ads, you often can't just change payments to go from a company to a personal account, because they have their own financial reporting responsibilities.

  Is it really even closed down at all, or was that just another tall tale trying to over-hype his losses and to try to make his lawsuit seem more legitimate?

  If he believes people lied about him, and that cost him $$$, then why didn't he try to refute the lies? Why is the only consistent thing he's done been to not address or point to any alleged untruth? Even now, he can't actually point to any untruth, only refer to vague insinuations. Defamation relies on their being specific untruths, that people knew to be untruths - so 'cmon Lloydy-boy, what exactly are they?

  Oh, wait - they just repeated things he'd admitted, and showed up exactly what kind of horrible person and abusive husband he was. So people decided to stop sending him free $ as a result, as is their choice - it's not like anyone was coerced or given false information to break any contract was it?

  So sorry fuck-face, you can't sue people for people finding out who you are, and deciding not to donate as a result.

  And numb-nuts has now told even the most blinkered of his followers exactly the kind of things he's been linked with, so they can now do their own research and realize what's been up to.

  Lloyd ... never thinking more than one tweet ahead.

  There isn't any connection between wokeness and Loyd's behavior.

  You were the one that brought it up, and I think I've more than demonstrated the link and why the comments are relevant. I'm certainly not "struggling to explain", although it seems you are struggling to understand.

  Please refer to the community and posting guidelines if you have any questions about moderating.

  If you were to design a new religion?

  by ExBethelitenowPIMA in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  what the jw sect has become and is slowly becoming is far more near what i thought could be a good religion based on the bible.. no more counting hours and no more blindly following direction now they admit they are not inspired.. i would like to design a new sect inside the jws.

  it has to be kept secret because the elders would not like it.. this new sect involves giving a tick every month or so saying you are still kindof active talking about the bible.. going to meetings occasionally and attending on zoom sometimes.

  very rarely go to ministry groups but don’t ever do first call, just say you are doing street work and have a nice walk somewhere maybe the shops or the park.

  The Book of Simon, Chapter 1:

  1. There shall be no fat chicks, nor chicks with dicks, for they be men who hath gone mental.

  2. If thy be ugly, try to standeth behind those with a more pleasant countenance, lest my eyes fall upon you.

  3. If thy be shapely, please sit in the front two rows, and the lord loveth a low cut top.

  My cult is going straight to the investigative journalist section!

  Wokeness is a mob, masquerading as "care and concern", but just a mob of often quite vicious and unpleasant people. People who are woke or happy to buy into the jingoism do it in no small part to use the dog-whistle accusations to set the mob onto people they don't like. I believe this is why Lloyd is "woke", and why it's pertinent to his behavior.

  Being non-woke just means you aren't an obnoxious prick due to being woke. You can still be one for other reasons. A little like how not all democrats were KKK members, but all members of the KKK were democrats.

  No it isn't. His political views have nothing to do with what he did/does. I am surprised you say that. Sadly you too fell into this trap

  It's not really a political view per se, although it often weaponizes things that have become politicized by certain parties. Saying it's nothing to do with what he did / does is as convincing as claiming "narcissism" wasn't relevant. It's absolutely relevant IMO as it's something he uses to virtue signal, to manipulate people, and to recruit flying monkeys to harass others as a way of controlling and excluding people.

  There is no "trap" here that anyone has fallen into - it's simply an observation.

  That's it's the goal of many people woke and otherwise

  There's a big difference in how people do it and why. Pretending to hold beliefs claiming you care about people is disingenuous. It's like pretending to care about victims of sexual abuse and then contributing to the sexual exploitation and human trafficking industry. The faked "concern" is a very relevant part of the story.

  I thought we were here to analyse with a critical eye Lloyd's behavior. I didn't know we were so elevate to judge and generalise the entire world. As someone who knows Lloyd very well I can assure you that him being "woke" is the least of the problems.

  It's relevant because Lloyd uses it to do what he does.

  Lloyd did what he did because he was/is "woke".

  No, like all "woke" people he uses it as a club to beat people. I don't think most woke people really believe a word of it, but they like having control of other people and the ability to silence them. That is why Lloyd is "woke", to get virtue signal points and to feed his flying monkeys their self-righteousness juice.

  I think that 'woke' was originally meant to imply that someone was alert to social injustice (itself a very flexible and politicized term), especially in forms that may not be obvious. The potential for misusing the term and using it as a political weapon should be clear.

  Exactly - and now it's used to impose social injustices. Like many causes, it ends up becoming the very thing it claimed to be against.

  Being "woke" means being an insufferable asshole that wants to dictate how everyone else lives, usually based on warped ideas. So yes, it is bad to be woke. They make the world a far worse place with their distorted outlook that ends up destroying societal norms and getting people killed.

  People like Lloyd use "wokeness" as a weapon, which is all it ever really is. It's a cancer.
