Once upon a time, I struck up a friendship with the SFF author Patrick Tomlinson. Met him at Convergence, most excellent author and dude. In the course of my photography, I took and published some photos of him from a Convergence.
(His labeling of Patrick as a "most excellent author" and "dude" all ready makes him an unreliable narrator. Patrick is decidedly NOT an "excellent author", as has been pointed out many times. He can't tell the difference between "eclectic" and "ecliptic", and he can't envision a truly alien, sci-fi world without populating it with instantly dated pop culture references (this is what Twitter does to you). It's in the far flung future in a remote part of the galaxy, yet they're hung up on 80s earth culture? Nice imagination, stupid.
And as far as "excellent dude", a cursory glance at his Twitter reveals him to be a miserable, hate filled liar who spends every waking moment being a miserable cunt to anyone who has a different opinion, regardless of whether or not they were engaging with him in the first place. In short, he's a shit author whose sales reflect that, and possibly the worst human being I have ever encountered. NO redeeming qualities).
And that's when things went sour. For you see, in addition to his authorship, Patrick is a political commentator of the sane Republican variety (my late friend Scott would have gotten on very well with him). But he suffers no fools gladly and gets into social media fights all the time.
(He's NOT a political commentator. He's a fat loudmouth drunk with an opinion. He's had no education on political science and no experience in that field, so he's no more a "political commentator" than any other middle aged man who comes home from work and watches CNN or Fox News, and yells back at the screen. If anything, their opinions carry MORE weight than Patrick's, because they are actually out in the real world, working, and witnessing consequences first hand. Patrick lays on the couch beneath a blanket until 10 AM.
And he "suffers no fools gladly"? He is a crybully who intentionally seeks out contrary opinions so he can insult them repeatedly, especially if they're women, and then report each and every one of their responses as "harassment". He's a bootlicking pussy bitch.)
Enter Opie and Anthony. It was a radio show, with a rabid fan base of right wing fuckwits. Patrick got into tangles again and again with them. They responded, on Reddit, with some very hurtful memes...and then they decided to use one of those photos of mine over and over.
(And whose fault was that? Your pussy bitch friend was the one who chose to keep responding to each and every taunt. He posted a thought on Norm Macdonald that wasn't even genuine - in true Tomlinson fashion, he was just hitching his wagon to something trending at the moment, and couldn't handle the blowback. Instead of ignoring it like an adult, he engaged with each and every remark. A person who can make it end at any moment by walking away is no victim).
I couldn't abide that on a number of grounds, and so I used DMCA takedowns on their crap on Reddit and I was part of them getting kicked off of Reddit for those violations (on top of their harassment). They set up a message board of their own, which I will not link here, since it is truly a toxic and evil place. They continue to churn out their memes there, and added me to their targets.
(So now Pedo Paul is, what? The seventh person claiming to have been responsible for our subreddit being taken down? Our MOD got us taken down, none of these glory chasing ass clowns.)
And then they found the "proof" that I am a pedophile and molestor of children, and their attacks amplified in number and frequency, culminating in me getting mass reported and permanently banned from twitter. They found some pictures I had taken of my friends' daughter, Dani, one of her as a baby in the tub, and one where, I didn't (and my friends didn't) see at the time, if you zoom in on the swinging Dani, you can see her underclothes.
Here, you can see for yourself

This is their proof of their pedophilia. I responded by locking my flickr account entirely, which just proves to them I am "guilty" .
(Oofta. So much here. Dani was NOT a baby in that picture. You using that word is an immediate attempt to diffuse the situation and control the narrative. She was easily five years old - too old for a stranger to be taking naked bathtub pictures of.
And Paul ... you didn't need to "zoom in" to see her underclothes. They were immediately visible, and seemed to almost be the center of the pictures. And there wasn't "one", there were at least 3. Unreliable narrator Paul strikes again.
And you locked your Flickr because you panicked. Can't have the truth exposed, now, can we?)
What got me banned was me responding to the Hawaii GOP tweet saying that Q people and coup plotters were good Americans by asking if their wanting to kill Mike Pence made them Good Americans. This somehow got twisted by the mass troll reporting as a threat AGAINST Mike Pence. And so, a permanent suspension of my account.
(That's NOT what happened. Like Pussy Bitch Pat, you were being vulgar, crude and borderline threatening towards anyone who espoused conservative or Republican ideals. And like Pat, you are more than happy to report anyone who dares offend you, but the moment someone does the same to you, poor thin skinned Paul can't handle it and immediately resorts to victim status. Oh, they can't possibly be reporting ME! These simply must be false mass reports! Just like Pussy Bitch Pat, you are more happy to dish it out, but melt down at the prospect of taking it.)
And now you know the story. I have been urged in text messages to commit suicide, they have texted my brother, taunted both of us about my mother's death...and my brother is being inclined to believe them.
(This is not "the story". This is Pedo Paul's version of the truth - heavily edited and embellished to make him the victim. We never taunted your brother about your mother's death, and all we ever told you was that your mother was right about you. Which she was.
And your brother was notified about our suspicions regarding you. And shocker - he didn't seem surprised.)
Oh and they would be delighted and think I should kill myself and "join my mother in hell".
(We would. You should.)
Now you know.
(Fuck you pedophile)
