• SURPRISE!: John Henry wants more followers so that he can mooch more!

    From Davey Zimmerman #274@21:1/5 to All on Sat Nov 11 18:34:14 2023
    Let's work through his latest spate of delusions, grifting and maybe
    even news on an actual job.

    (Disclaimer: I kind of lied about the job part! See below.)

    "Again, I just need to point out *how much* weight I'm working under."

    Yeah, mooching off a terminal cancer patient must be a real bitch when
    you provide nothing yourself.

    "Chris P. Bacon aka Pharmacide lauched that page a couple of months ago.
    He has 10K followers and is seeing in excess of 15 million engagements a month."

    So why can't you do that? You've had well over a decade and you keep
    losing people.

    "I started this page 12 years ago."

    No, you've started many pages and delete them when you fuck up so bad at grifting that nobody sends you money for nothing. Then you delete them
    and start over.

    "I have 5k followers and, outside of viral spikes, I see about 15
    *thousand* engagement a month. It's in no way denigrating to them to
    note that they're not doing anything particularly "special." Some cool
    tunes, some game streaming, some memes, but nothing that's like OMG GROUNDBREAKING or THIS IS THE COOLEST EVER, he's not getting picked up
    by media or shared by big pages with millions of followers. He's just
    not weighted down by a dozen years of having trolls and stalkers gang
    together running what now amounts to thousands of sockpuppets to file
    abuse complaints, report content, drive people away from his content
    with outrageous and disgusting allegations and insinuations, and
    back-channel threats to people sharing his work that if they keep doing
    it they'll be blacklisted themselves."

    Davey Zimmerman Rule #1: Being ridiculous attacts ridicule.

    I'll add that being a grifter and a proven liar with a multitude of
    issue doesn't help you at all.

    "I can accept the proposition that what I do here isn't going to be
    popular and resonant with everyone. I absolutely do not accept the
    proposition that my is so repulsive to the vast majority of people I can
    have half the audience and *a thousandth* of the engagement of a two
    month old page run by a guy whose most objectively notable attribute is
    that he wears a pig mask and calls himself crispy bacon."

    I accept it. Does he ask people to send him money constantly? Does he
    chase away people or censor them constantly?

    "A *thousandth.*
    Imagine where I'd be right now if I was seeing 15 million engagements a
    month. Being in FB's bonus program and having a bit of data to work
    with, I can tell you that's gonna work out to about 1200 a month JUST in
    FB traffic, to say nothing of the natural increases in other support and
    merch perk income that would come with multiplying my audience size by A THOUSAND."

    That's easy, you would be begging for something else.

    "I'm fuggin begging y'all to make me your project for the next few weeks
    and see what happens. Share EVERYTHING, like EVERYTHING, I don't care
    if you share it with a comment like "y'all got to come see this dumb
    bastard, he's absolutely psychotic, it's like a train wreck in real time
    that never stops." Take five minutes a day, swing by the page (this
    one), and just like the first fifteen or twenty things you see and share
    five or ten."

    People have made you a project before. Remember Beth Aultman? How about
    your family? Especially the brother who had to file for eviction in
    court to get rid of you.

    "That's the only way the damage done is gonna get healed and the algo's
    gonna stop thinking I'm somewhere between Satan and Hitler on the "that
    sounds like fun" gauge. I'm betting that just a month of high-intensity positive engagement even from fifty of you - one percent of the people following this page - will triple my audience at least. Let's test that theory."

    Let's not. Rot in hell, parasite.

    Yeah, I really only lied about the job part in respect to where John was looking for one. He wanted to put everyone else to work and not pay
    them. That's our Social Justice Warrior for you.
