Inactive Richard "Lowtax" Kyanka - Deadbeat (emphasis on "Dead") founder of Something Awful, forced out of his own community, on his second divorce, stuck his dick in crazy, "Birth Giver"

I remember Lowtax posting angrily on the forums about 2003 or 2004 because someone who wanted to harass him got hold of his dad's contact info instead, and LT had to try to explain to his father why total strangers were blowing up his phone night and day shrieking that he was a faggot who should kill himself. Maybe Dadtax saw which way the wind was blowing with his failson early on and has been wise enough to keep out of the mess of Lowtax's life and let Mom do all the heavy lifting.

Oh, I had no idea if he was in the picture since he was never spoken of, while Momtax called Rich nearly every day and dropped by on occasion. In reality then, Dadtax is probably a cool guy IRL if he wants to distance himself the fuck away from his son and his 'internet business'.

In retrospect though, Dadtax could have straightened him out. When I knew Lowtax he wasn't full pinko yet, at least when he wasn't on the forums. He was actually a hardcore libertarian still, almost to the point of being a *Sovereign Citizen*. He really didn't give half a shit about troons rights or hashtag Black Lives Matter (we were all in Missouri when Michael Brown dindu nuffin). That seemed to all come later, like 2016. Once President Trump came on the scene both of them got fucking deranged. Shit, a lot of 'internet personalities' went off the rails once Trump got into office. Half of Channel Awesome, basically everyone talked about on DHI went batshit as a direct result of Trump. Shmorky actually sat me down several times and had the Trump talk with me about how "HE LITERALLY USES TALKING POINTS FROM HITLEEER!" Before that it was all about Gamergate. Don't even get me started about how I probably contracted Lyme Disease by a tick bite from storming off into the woods away from Shmorky over an argument about fucking Gamergate.

Circling back to Lowtax though, his dad should have tried harder to straighten him out. At least he had one person in his support network who could have kept him grounded and taught him how to handle his own shit instead of just doing it for him. This is always what happens with helicopter moms.

I think Lowtax's only hail mary he can pull in this situation is to just embrace the right wing. Just do it, Lowtax. If the troons don't like it, they can leave. Most have already left you anyway. Open the doors of SA to folks who are all levels of right wing. You may not stay rich doing it, but you'll be amazed at how refreshing it is to say what you want without getting hashtag canceled for it and doxxed by a bunch of men in dresses. You probably had a blast posting with my FB friends and I, that's why you stayed around for months. You were probably in awe of the fact we could all have political arguments and still be friends the next day bullshitting about Star Trek and video games. Even though we all made fun of you because you couldn't understand what 'per capita' means.

We'd probably be up for the pay-to-play forum model, as it would filter out all the White Sharia and Daily Stormer retards and be a place where we could have some engaging intellectual conversation. You're welcome to join us. We don't approve of wifebeating, but you'll find us far less judgmental than the "tolerance" crowd.

You know we have a Trek thread in Multimedia, right? Come join us bitch about how CBS is ruining the franchise.

The problem with that is Lowtax is incredibly thin-skinned, and a bunch of straight-shooting right wingers are going to say upsetting things like "maybe your back'd get better if you got some exercise, you druggy fuck" and "maybe you should sober up and look after your kids" and "get a job". No way Richy Poo tolerates that.

I have no idea what the fuck is happening here, but I am sure it is very, very gay.
 
Welp. Anyone that thought they could stay in the SA community and things will get better when sold to Jeffrey, now know what to expect.

Same shit, different day, as the community moderators cannot maturely handle criticism, or just some abrupt sass.

Again:
Jeffery is lead admin.
One of the things we laugh at lowtax about is how absentee of a landlord he is.

There will be no real changes when Jeffery takes over. The new boss very literally is the old boss.

Star Trek ended for me in pre-9/11 America. Or I guess in 2005 if you count Enterprise. I do not acknowledge Discovery aka STD, the Picard Series, or Lower Decks or whatever else the fuck.

But I will gladly ramble on about my outlandish theories about DS9 and how the shapeshifters represent the bloodline of Cain in the Bible, who is the common ancestor of all the people running this world IRL, and Odo is an Antichrist allegory in which the Antichrist is the pure manifestation of chaos theory and in that chaos destroys his own creator (Lucifer) and his kingdom. And how Jem'Hadar is an anagram for Operation Jade Helm 15' in which Obama gutted the military of any soldiers who wouldn't fire on unarmed civilians.

And that Star Trek Voyager episode about FEMA camps. (Season 3, episode 6: 'Remember.')

Its funny that you bring up Lowtax' legendary thin-skinned disposition, right alongside HGB, who is looking like the Jeffrey era catlady right now.

I'm surprised that post about logan got a probe, it's impossible to keep track of who is the latest enemy and who is now untouchable.

Aside from being completely true, it's also completely old. Everyone knew all of that months ago, at which time it was de rigeur to shit on Logan as much as possible.

Same with koalas march, I think the only new info that came out was that she had an alt. But suddenly, overnight, it goes from no dissent tolerated to open season on her.

And don't try looking to the mods or lepers colony for any clarification, all you'll get is fuck you or fuck off.

No wonder it's a swamp of mental illness in there, I feel like I'm going crazy just watching them.

You almost make it sound fun, if you can stand the troon politics.
 
Harsh moderation was probably necessary back in the old days when the forums were completely full of actual unruly children. Nowadays it's like nazis overseeing the sped room.

This is correct. Remember that it took Lowtax putting his foot down to make it so that C-SPAM death threats are an automatic month probation, and even then it still wasn't really enforced unless someone called it out in QCS (the Talk to Staff public forum).
