I think his objective was more disgusting. I think he was "feeling out" Kim and Bob . . .
This is what I was getting at in my earlier post. I don't believe that the disclosure of his personal life was unintentional. Instead, I believe that he was "testing the waters" to see whether those subjected to his nauseating disclosures might be interested in "helping" him.
I feel bad for any human who has to look at his grotesque physical attributes during intimacy. The allegations of paying for sex are not at all surprising to me.

All we can do is demonstrate to people who are already having those doubts and searching is that we're not the monsters the WTS has made us out to be. We're not immoral, drug-taking, whore-using, wife-abusing, lowlifes.
And THAT is why Lloyd will forever be a detriment to exJWs, regardless of whatever content he produces. He's simply a caricature of an apostate, perfectly living down to the standards the WTS predicts.
LE's situation is likely being used/to be used by the WTBTS to stereotype all who are deemed "apostates" as slimeballs.

it is exactly what people who are beginning to wake up, need to give them the confidence to leave.
I disagree. When they find out the "truth" about LE, it could be just the thing, in addition to the customary fear and doubts about leaving, to trigger them to return to the borg and never look at "apostate" material again.

Genesis 11:16 - 19: "Pe'Leg." I always wondered if the guy ever became potty-trained at any point during his 209 years of life.

BTW, I translate exjw material "pro-bono" out of the sheer joy of helping people break free from Watchtower.
Vintage, you nailed it! In my opinion, credibility is lost when one's words are motivated by money. Lloyd's words are about as valuable to me as used toilet paper. Flush it and wash your hands!

Because hes a fetishistic pervert with absolutely no respect for women other than as sexual objects.
I have a similar idea. I don’t think he was being respectful to Kim when he shared his disgusting information with her.

The views indicate that roughly 1/10th of his total subs are actually active. And views aren’t that accurate either as some click on the video twice or more.
Yes I did notice that he’s not getting the views that he used to get. I’m wondering what he was thinking when he shared damaging information with Kim. I believe that he did so intentionally in furtherance of an objective. The question is what was his objective?

I think he has always been like this, we just see his true colours more often now as he is being called out for his bs more 🤷‍♀️
He still has over 100K followers on YouTube. That's amazing to me. His voice, appearance and content are nauseating.

The zeitgeist of the AAWA era was insane. At first everyone loved it and it was such a great intro video that Lloyd produced.
Then Lloyd happened.
I never understood the "AAWA" thing, but I guess that's because I never looked at anti-JW activism as a professional endeavor. I guess, in retrospect, I was naive as to the potential for monetizing anti-JW activism. As for Lloyd, I never had an ounce of respect for him at any time. I believed him to be a dishonest POS when I first came across him, and my opinion of him has never improved, but has certainly gotten much worse.

I recall the "AAWA" scandal from about a decade ago. I've always thought of this slob as having the maturity of a teenager who is going out of his way to be noticed. At the end of the day, he was everything the Watchtower ever could have hoped for. A prominent opposer outed as a pervert is now being used as a tool of the WT to stereotype all former JWs as liars who are absolutely devoid of morals.
