I'm going to let you in on something that
you probably don't understand as a fan of Owen Benjamin: just because people are members of a place does not mean they need to fall in line completely in one preposterous mass. Some people probably want them to lose cause it would be hilarious.
Some people probably want him to lose because they hate him. Some people don't want him to lose at all. You will see all of these people in this thread, cause get this: not everyone here agrees on everything, and we're not banned because of it.
You see this as a "hornet's nest" because we laugh at Owen's obsession with cock and sodomy, drinking turpentine, and openly scamming his most loyal fans while drunkenly losing his mind, okay. I think you were arguing with someone specifically about whether or not they will win? If you want to quote them or something, but also I'd like to point out nothing has been won yet, and legal debates like the one you are engaged in are autistic and nobody is on the side of Big Tech on Kiwi Farms.
It's being discussed more here:
Important to note is that while Patreon will have to pay all the arbitration/discovery fees,
Randazza appears to be billing each of the 50+ bears (and Owen) individually and that is just paid right now. That's where this all connects to Beartaria and a recent stream where Owen has gone full blackpilled and claimed he is a homesteader on the brink of poverty.
Again, I repeat:
nobody here wants Patreon to win. People are saying that Patreon
could win, and they could win due to the simple nature of how long this could drag on (some speculate 2022 due to the sheer number of people involved) and where all the money is coming from.
Vox Day appears convinced Patreon is on the brink of bankruptcy, and if you want to hang your case on that it's a bad strategy. Because that's what Vox Day wants to do here, he wants to play Dark Lord and go scorched Earth on one of his enemies so my thinking is that if he gets anywhere close to that, other tech companies will circle the wagons and contribute.
You know why they can do that and not receive any bad big-guy-vs-little-guy PR? Because they can plausibly make the case that Owen Benjamin is a psycho, and not charismatic or likable enough to get the public on his side. And once that happens, the case of
"I want to hurt you and your business as much as I can" puppeted by a man who unironically sits on a throne in his friend's Italian home will be put right against
"we just want to help these thousands upon thousands of independent content creators" and it won't go well.
Nobody wants Patreon to be able to do what they're doing, we're talking about what is realistic and if you come in like
"aren't you all SEETHING that Owen is WINNING?" you just sound like a colossal faggot.
