This is a pretty false thumbnail. Old Tim would have attacked this if CNN did this

Watched it so far
>Tim knew nothing of the case but his guess and Ian did
>They did talk about the guy that actually did it
>pop culture reference
>Ian says will male Deepfake porn involving beastiality
>more pop culture references
>Ian aadmitshe wanted to check out the website
>everyone is worried the government overreaching, Tim says a pop culture reference
he's getting attacked in his comments though

 

[LurkTrawl]

Kind of disappointed that the word "flaggot" isn't thrown around more.

 

[Tomo]

Tell that to Antifa.

I hope his fans never let up on this. I'm sick of Tim worming his way out of controversy

You can rebuild a city with nuclear fallout in it, but you can't rebuild a city that has Democrats in it.

Fucking based.

 

[TheRaptorJesus]

but you can't rebuild a city that has Democrats in it.

"democrats"? Weird way to say niggers.

Niggardry transcends race.

man I've never read an article on Tim's site and this gives me good reason not to. The fucking comparison of the situation to the doomsday clock has got to be the cringiest "look at me I'm a WRITER" thing I've seen in some time.

 

[Crux]

Does Pool cover internet Drama a lot? I can maybe remember sometimes he did in the past. But it seems to be situational. I think Pool acts usually in a very business-minded sense. If theres a possibility the tech giants will come on down him if he covers a story, he tends to avoid it. The banning of Venti and such has demonstrated this. I think he's very risk averse to bringing the heat on himself.

yes but he's built a version of himself and his company as a person/group that wont stand for big tech censorship. This particular case is something his base audience flocked to him for and now that he's cucked out its becoming an issue.

I think he is of the mind that this is another Jack Murphy incident where he can just stfu and it will go away. I think this instance is different though, as JM was just a phony and liked dicks up the butt. In this case Eliza Blowme has made significant strides in censoring like minded creators to Pool. I think its beyond his risk aversion at this point, I think if he refuses to address or denounce it the mob will assume he's complicit, cracking the veneer he's created for the grift

 

[superfat]

Tim is super salty at the chat now. He is a Meany with a beany and I am loving this shit show.

A lot of the comments aren't supportive. We'll see how this plays out.

some interesting shorts

Internet sleuths found all the times she’d been seen on TV or in music videos or in modeling campaigns—calling into question her timeline of having been a victim of trafficking. If she’s done all these shows, many Twitter users said she must only be in it for fame. Everything seemed like a lie. This initial thread culminated in the internet scouring the internet for as much information as possible to prove that she was, in fact, a fraud. Eventually, this thread attracted those who were once extremely supportive of Eliza and her cause. Larger accounts shared the images from the video—her bare ass and some questions regarding the validity of Eliza’s story. They tagged Eliza and waited for a response. It seemed like everyone was waiting.

Before she and I had met in person, our first official interaction happened in a group chat between Ye, Eliza, and myself.

I had just left Ye’s place in LA. He and I had spent the weekend discussing, among other things, the shape of his campaign for President of the United States. One topic that he kept coming back to was human trafficking. Eliza’s name popped into my head when I was in the airport—so I asked for her permission to send her contact to Ye, she obliged, and then Ye started the group chat.

After the thread about Eliza’s life went viral, her timeline didn’t make sense to me either. There seemed like major gaps in her story. I’m sure I wasn’t alone in having this nightmarish thought experiment. On one hand, I would’ve preferred she was lying because from the bits of her own story she has shared, I’d rather not want that to happen to anyone. On the other hand, if she was lying, I’d feel personally let down. I don’t believe it should erase the advocacy I’ve seen her do on Twitter and in podcasts, but it would make it extremely challenging to take her seriously moving forward—even as I personally struggle with who does and doesn’t deserve redemption. If she had profited off victims, it would be dirty. If she was exposed as merely a fame whore, I wouldn’t be surprised—no real insult to Eliza—but the Internet is filled with them—so another joining the ranks wouldn’t be the slightest bit shocking. I think what I, and most others, probably found most egregious, aside from the supposed power she had within Twitter, is that there was a possibility Eliza really could’ve propped up victims to gain fame and money. But, again, the current economy deals in the currency of victimhood. We’re all numb to the grift.

And now, as we were supposedly on the edge of nuclear annihilation according to some grim-faced scientists, I had Eliza on the phone—who didn’t seem nearly as anxious as I felt.

The Babylon Bee had notified her that they cancelled an event they had planned to do together.

“It’s heartbreaking,” she said. “I needed my Christian brothers. I’m so pissed that [they] would cancel.”

“Are you reading Twitter?” I asked—referring to the barrage of comments about her life. All the images. Everyone who’d done anything with her had been getting tagged in everything, too.

“Friends are telling me that my silence is making everything worse,” she said. “Right now people don’t want to hear anything from me… there’s literally nothing I could say.. what could I say? Nothing I do will appease everybody. I can’t be too mean, I can’t be too nice. So many [people] have their minds made up.”

“That’s true,” I said—wondering how the fuck I was going to navigate this story. I was hesitant to even ask her about all this—I would either be exposing her total lie—or, perhaps, I would be making her relive some deeply troubling trauma. The waitress brought us our waters and our meals, and I said I guess we better start with the questions.

I asked her how she defined human trafficking.

“Force, fraud, or coercion for the sale of labor of sex… anyone under the age of 18. Engaging in any commercial sexual activity for goods or services or money is a victim of human trafficking,” she rattled it off quickly. “Under 18,” she said, “is automatically a victim of human trafficking if they’re engaging in commercial sex. There’s not a question; no gray area.”

“How did the trafficking start with you?”

“I met him when I was about 15,” she said.

“Where?”

“A concert… out here.”

“Who was he?”

“A photographer.”

“Can you name him?”

“I can’t.”

“Why?”

“Legal reasons.”

“Was this a relationship with the older guy?”

“He groomed me.”

“Grooming how?”

“Finding out my vulnerabilities. What would make me leave my family and come out to LA. He knew exactly what to say. I was probably the easiest mark they ever had.”

“Was he talking sexually with you as well?”

“No. It was all about the dream world. The opportunities.”

“The photographer introduces me to the musician,” she said.

I asked again for names, but she refused. We get into this specific discussion later, but I wanted to establish her side of what happened in LA first.

“Are the photographer and the musician together?”

“Like physically?” she asked.

“I mean, like, are they a team?”

“Do you think I know that?” she said with some hostility.

“I don’t know, that’s why I’m asking… How soon after moving to LA is this happening?”

“Immediately. Within a few days. Like 48 hours.”

“I went over to the musician’s place. I don’t remember if he came and picked me up, but I’m sure he probably did. We went over there, hanging out, and had some beer. That’s when everything went downhill. He handed me something to smoke—and I smoked it. I think they called it ice or glass. I think it was something like crystal meth.”

“Did sex with him come into place before all this?”

“It was clear there was no choice,” she said. “The thing is like, I hadn’t come from that… that wasn’t a part of my lifestyle.

“When he called the buyer, were you thinking anything like, ‘What the fuck is this phone call?’”

“No, I was just told we needed more drugs, so ‘We’re gonna sell you.’ And I was like, ‘Holy shit, I’m a child prostitute.’ I was embarrassed. I knew immediately I would never tell anyone about this.”

The musician dropped her off at a house in West Hollywood Hills.

“Can you describe this man, the buyer?”

“Old, fat, ugly guy. I could probably recreate pieces of his room. It’s weird what your brain remembers. His bed was red, but not blood red. It had a red blanket. It was a really nice place. And there were multiple people living there.”

“A lot of people who’ve been looking into your past are asking themselves how could this happen to a daughter of a politician? ‘It looks like she had a nice family.’”

“That’s the most disgusting insult,” she said. “You can be a survivor and be other things. You can have a family. A lot of survivors I know are married, have kids. It’s not like you’re a survivor and that’s all you are. I could be fully in trauma, probably on disability just rotting away—still off the LA experience. That’s why I’m like, at this point, I don’t care what people say. Listen to what I survived. That’s crazy.”

“So, you won’t name names. Can you say it’s a famous person?” I asked.

“There are people involved in my story that are very high profile. Maybe they aren’t a household name. But I think if and when it all comes out, people be like, ‘Oh, wow…’”

“But you could be out there preventing others from getting hurt by him, if he is still alive,” I said.

She took a deep breath before responding.

“I understand. I do,” she said. “And I think about that myself… There were multiple times I tried and it never went well for me,” she said—referring to the second man who she says abused and trafficked her.

“Look, at this point, this is number one, there are laws that aren’t going to work in my favor. The LA stuff is way in the past. Sometimes there are provisions where if it’s over 10 years, but like, generally speaking, it’s all He Said, She Said. Simply accusing someone with no evidence, it would not end well for me. And when I say no evidence, I mean, like, no evidence, like, I have no evidence for this first story, right? So, it would literally be the most He Said, She Said, and nobody’s gonna be like, ‘You know what? Yup. She’s right.’”

She said she reached out to the Daily Wire at the beginning of the COVID lockdown. She wanted to see if they’d cover the way lockdowns would affect human trafficking. The lockdowns, she predicted, would increase risk for vulnerabilities.

“I didn’t reach out to them to cover me. I didn’t want to be public about my story or advocacy,” she said.

Eliza claimed she did not want her name and face included in the article. But according to her, Prestigiacomo had fought to include these details as, she believed, it would give the article more reach. The two went back and forth about this until Eliza finally agreed to allow them to use her name and image.

“I want people to remember this,” she told me. “If you look through my history, I’ve never had trouble hanging around famous people. When I became a survivor advocate, I had a fully popping Instagram. Like that was just sitting there, once I got back control of it.”

I believe she’s referencing her relationship to Gerard Way, the singer of My Chemical Romance—as well as how her Instagram was stolen from her years later, well after her relationship with Gerard.

“A lot of people are seeing you in various videos looking happy or calling your mom to see how proud she is of you being in a music video. Are these things proof that you are only doing it for fame? What do you think people are missing about you?” I asked.

“Well, number one, I don’t think people understand human trafficking—even though you can just Google what it means. And then like, also listen to a bunch of survivor stories and go to the Human Trafficking Hotline, or the Polaris Project website. My entire Twitter feed for the last few years has been dedicated to educating people. And clearly no one was reading any of it. That actually has been one of the biggest hits of the whole thing is I’m like, ‘Oh my gosh, they weren’t reading what I’m posting.’”

She continued: “But the other piece that they don’t understand is abuse or abusive situations, like, quite frankly, you, Shane, could be my trafficker. Or I could be your trafficker. We’re at a truck stop. And we could be going somewhere and looking like we’re having a lovely conversation. And you and I could leave here and get in the car. And no one would be any the wiser. If somebody snapped a picture of us right now, they’d be like, ‘Oh, they look like friends or in a relationship, normal.”

It's a lot of filler but she claims her abuser took control of her old accounts on Twitter and met Dorsey because of that
Should probably be reposted on her thread but noticed Timcast didn't quite grill her on censoring QuarterPounder and Venti nor the age lying nor the dating show

“Finding out my vulnerabilities. What would make me leave my family and come out to LA. He knew exactly what to say. I was probably the easiest mark they ever had.”

She seems to be using grooming in a very loose way here, as from what I understand she was of age and some dude sold her a Hollywood dream, and while that might be grooming in a general sense, it's not grooming in the way that would normally be used when it comes to sexual grooming. This seems to be forming into a pattern.

I think he is of the mind that this is another Jack Murphy incident where he can just stfu and it will go away. I think this instance is different though, as JM was just a phony and liked dicks up the butt. In this case Eliza Blowme has made significant strides in censoring like minded creators to Pool. I think its beyond his risk aversion at this point, I think if he refuses to address or denounce it the mob will assume he's complicit, cracking the veneer he's created for the grift

The other thing to keep in mind is Jack was just grifting dudes for some cash, which is scummy but ultimately some people had fun at the brunches and got to fuck his beard. Eliza on the other hand is using victims of heinous crimes for clout, which is significantly worse.

 

[Don't Tread on Me]

Tim is shit talking the pro skateboarder he hired to host a new show before she's even gotten started hosting. He really just cannot let other people succeed.

If he ends up self-immolating his own channel over refusing to take an L on this issue I will laugh so hard.

Jack was also significantly less famous than Eliza. If it wasn't for Timcast I doubt many of us would even know who he is, meanwhile with Eliza I found out about her through just casual twitter scrolling.

Tim is shit talking the pro skateboarder he hired to host a new show before she's even gotten started hosting. He really just cannot let other people succeed.

He really gives off major "I should've been a pro skater" vibes whenever he talks about skate news. Like there is a strange level of vitriol he seems to have whenever he talks about that stuff.

 

[anustart76]

Okay I really wanted to give Tim the benefit of the doubt, but at this point, I think he is a grifter. While having a bunch of MATI moments at the end of tonight's stream about the Eliza Bleu situation, he insults Quartering and others for talking about her, goes full schizo talking about everyone being paid shills, and conveniently leaves out the fact that HE was the one who put Bleu in the public eye by having her on his show twice, and brings up Jack Murphy while leaving out his promotion of that guy too. And it looks like he's paywalled the rest of his freakout too.

What a cuck. The worst part of this is, he's genuinely the best news "aggregator" I know of, so I actually still feel the need to remain subscribed, though I'm still not giving him money.

 

[Value Size]

My god I'm listening to his IRL rant and holy hell this might actually hurt his career. His body language and demeanor feels very similar to when the dude snatch the hat off his head; a weird mixture of primal anger and fear with random halfassed bullshit excuses being peppered in to explain why he totally doesn't care. This isn't "giving into a mob" Tim and you know that. If anyone else acted like this Tim would have 6 videos (20+ minutes each) explaining the problem with modern men but it is totally fine for him to go on a cuck rage and quite literally tell his fans to fuck off.

Edit: Remember when Joe Rogan had the twitter CEO on, had all of his fans complain and Joe proceeded to have Tim on to debate Jack and his lawyer? You'd think with all the sucking up to Rogan Tim does he'd take that experience that he was part of as a good way of getting out of drama. But nah instead he decides to *checks notes* claim any negative comment is just a PR firm.

Edit again (I didnt get this far last night): "I wonder if anybody who is paying attention to a Chinese balloon carrying potential explosives over the United States is concerned about what some videos some guy produced" [referred to Jack Murphy]. Tim basically used the exact same excuse Joe Biden recently used when a reporter asked him about the classified documents at some natural disaster event. This guy has become (or perhaps he always has been) everything he made his career criticizing.
