Steven Joel Akins / Penelope "Penny" Verity Oaken / u/Bardfinn / Penny Witchette / Finning Widget / MutabileSemper - "Incest is not unethical" - Troon Reddit powermod who orchestrates the posting of CP to subs they hate, pathological liar with a massive ego, domestic abuser and multiple felon

Sorry if this has already been discussed, but how did we link his Reddit name and his real name if his troon name is the only name linked to his Reddit account (if it even is)?
Years ago before he suffered TDS, he did an interview with an online publication on the topic of encryption where he was quoted as Steve Akins and disclosed that he was the person behind the "Bardfinn" alias. He doxxed himself in other words, but he still pretends like his IRL identity is some big secret that no one was supposed to know about or find out. It's just more gaslighting to make himself look like a victim while he victimizes others.
 

The comment section of this submission became extremely violent. There were a number of leftist expressing violent sentiments.


The comment by Bardfinn is fascinating.

"We do not allow any kind of violent rhetoric in this subreddit because the sitewide rules forbid it and because violent rhetoric is universally bent to the ends of fascists. We also do not allow apologetics for violent rhetoric."

"because the sitewide rules forbid it". Not because it's wrong. Not because it is abhorrent. Not because it signals that a group may be a "violent political movement"... as againsthatesubreddits likes to insist. No. Because it's "against the sitewide rules." Even more egregiously he somehow manages to twist the fact that his ideological fellows are expressing violent sentiments and somehow drag "the fascists" into it.

 
"We do not allow any kind of violent rhetoric in this subreddit because the sitewide rules forbid it and because violent rhetoric is universally bent to the ends of fascists. We also do not allow apologetics for violent rhetoric."
I bet when Tardfinn beat his wife and kid, he'd scream at them "Look at what you MADE ME DO!"
 
Bardfinn's Twatter is still locked, so I am just going to post some old tweets I meant to post before but didn't get around to at the time:


The government already has laws that prevent verbal assault with intent to harass, injure, intimidate, belittle. *That's what simple assault is*. Regulations that explicitly extend that to the malicious misuse of specific terms isn't any more or less. It just clarifies the law.
https://twitter.com/PennyOaken/status/929570188026138624

There is no law against "hurt feelings". There is a law in every common law jurisdiction against *purposefully inflicting distress and harm through speech*.

Pretty sure that includes calling innocent people "Natsees" and falsely accusing them of being "far-right white supremacists" behind their backs while secretly profiling MILLIONS them in a blacklist database for purpose of getting them ostracized and censored, all with Reddit's knowledge and blessings. Anyway, we will learn who Merari is eventually, he has pissed off so many people that one of them will be the eventual whistleblower who brings it all down, and he'll find out what happens when the book is thrown against him for a change. Merari needs to understand that EU laws are not like American laws and if he continues fucking around he's gonna find out the hard way.

It's been explained to me, by someone who knows way more about this stuff than I do, that falsely accusing someone of being a "Natsee" in the EU is not considered just political hyperbole or something you just say in the moment during heated debate because you're Mad On The Internet the way it is in the US, but it is in fact considered one of the gravest of public insults. The reason is that, unlike the US, a lot of EU countries actually have a historical Natsee past which is considered a black page in their history books, so falsely accusing someone of being Natsee in the EU is akin to falsely accusing them of crimes against humanity or war crimes or justifying/advocating for these crimes. The Netherlands is one of those European countries with a Natsee past, so falsely accusing someone of being "Natsee" in the Netherlands could be actionable defamation there as well. Bardfinn has falsely accused literally millions of Redditors of being Natsees and tagged them as such in his secret blacklist, so if Merari aided and abetted this mass-smear campaign by knowingly participating in the blacklisting of all these innocent hapless Redditors, he is actionable too.

More importantly, it's a clear-cut violation of the GDPR even by a generous interpretation merely to keep such a blacklist at all.
 
this website is fucking obsessed with trains lmao, I even get them in my captchas.

Not only Merari, but Reddits Admins need to be identified and exposed too. They are all complicit.
 
Here's another thread I meant to go over but didn't get around to. This is from before he locked up his account so this was public at the time.

Question: Is this Bardfinn admitting he physically cyberstalked people across the globe? He says "we", suggests he was part of the team that went to Antarctica the troll:

So, who's ready for storytime? About Gamerbros and how they are racist, sexist, harassing, dogpiling jerks? Replete with screenshots demonstrating that they're trash?

Warning: NSFW for language and, if you transcribe a URL, a dick pic --
https://twitter.com/PennyOaken/status/1018731373518098432 AR: https://archive.is/fWBRQ

We had tournaments, we had road trips, we had in-game caravans to cross the globe, and when we had cheaters who spoofed their location to Antarctica,
we set up a task force to trigonometrically reverse-engineer the Antarctica base from a handful of screenshots --

and then spent two weeks crawling across Argentina and the South Atlantic to Antarctica in order to raid that cheated-in base, to prove to the cheaters that there was no place they could spoof to that we couldn't legitimately reach.

(They had gloated. Poor choice.)

So he's not just a cyberstalker but an actual IRL physical stalker as well. I know what you're thinking: "Wow, Argentina? Antarctica? East Germany? Bardfinn sure gets around a lot!". But at the same time he claims he's "very homely", and he did not provide any evidence to back his claims about travelling all the way to Antarctica just to track down a troll, so...

And here's Bardfinn admitting once again that he really does have a Discord account and access to Discord, something he has consistently denied:

But I set that aside, and applied to alpha-test / contribute to this in-development game.

He emailed me a link to a Discord server that was represented to be the one for the alphatest for the game.

It was not the Discord server for the alphatest for the game.

It was the Discord server for a group that turns out to be his "friends".

Who have server roles named the N word, where participants have usernames that include a Chinese racial slur, one overt Nazi reference,

one SPQR usericon, a user typing the N word into chat, and a link to Reddit that is a GIF of a man breaking a brick over his erect, turgid sexual member.

That's his response to the concerns of me and my friends and family, after I saw this:

WARNING: This is the screenshot of the Discord channel I described. It contains racial slurs and Nazi references.


NSFW.


"Whose name I will not post here":

The interaction I had with this man -- handle "Turkinator" and "Turkinator96" -- whose legal name I'm not going to post here -- was

unprofessional in every dimension I can think of at this moment

3 tweets later, proceeds to post the person's IRL Twitter account anyway:

No one will ever -- if I can prevent it by speaking -- be taken advantage of by this person, Turkinator96.

So Bardfinn apparently tweeted out a link to a scrambled dick pic on Reddit? But he justified doing this because it wasn't his own dick pic? Guys, is this a ToS violation? Or are dick pics allowed regardless when it's a troon posting them saying it's not their own dick?
 
There's been speculation that Love In my Heart is a Bardfinn alt, since the account showed up as a moderator of againsthatesubreddits at a time that Bardfinn had been suspended temporarily from the site. This post should put the speculation to rest. It's truly wonderful. After demanding a true block function from the reddit administrators, there's a problem for Bardfinn. Users are blocking him and his cronies and they cannot see discussions about them. There is a lot of back and forth in this thread about bad faith versus good faith blocking, but who in their right mind would not block the people involved with againsthatesubreddits and, specifically, Bardfinn the "Nazi hunter"?

For brief posts, Love in my heart was able to come off as though it was not "Bardfinn"... but so many comments in this discussion made by LIMH are formed and phrased the way Bardfinn typically expresses himself.

I mean, it certainly is a ToS violation, and depending on the state, it could even be classified as revenge porn.

Reddit tranny jannies have had a bad week. You love to see it.

I speculate that /u/Things_Make_Me_Sad is also a Bardfinn alt. The username is stylized the same as LIMH and there's that faggy way of talking:

That's not a problem for him and you know that. He openly admits he uses multiple sockpuppets to infiltrate subreddits he wants to take down. He uses sockpuppets so he can keep cyberstalking subreddits after they're set to private (as you'll recall, he said that when a subreddit is set to private he can no longer trawl its contents via the API). He is going to use his existing sockpuppet accounts to bypass any block on his primary /u/Bardfinn account. In fact, if you block him, he's going to take that as an indication that you're trying to hide something, and that will only make him that much more zealous to infiltrate your subreddit to trawl for his secret blacklist. I have explained repeatedly that one of the programs he uses, RES or Reddit Enhancement Suite, allows him to easily switch amongst multiple sockpuppet accounts. He will happily create even more sockpuppet accounts.
