Tony, this thread was made yesterday, so you easily found it while it's still relevant. I didn't inform you directly because I had assumed you were monitoring that Twitter thread by Bart, where I posted this link.

The biggest piece of advice I'd give you is just to watch what you say and write. I'm not going to debate any of your views with which I disagree, because that's pointless. However, if you have any thoughts which are denigrating women or any particular race, don't post them. If you have any thoughts regarding how you'd like to burn a place down or see Democrats die, don't post them. Having bad thoughts and posting/saying them are two very different things. It's the latter which really turns certain people off to you.

I have always been in the "Tony is actually harmless" camp, which is why I stated that I supported Bart staking you.

It is actually admirable that you prefer to support yourself rather than get on SSI or some other form of assistance.

As Sanlmar said, everyone loves an underdog. If you were just a weird guy with Asperger's who was trying to make a living from poker, everyone would root for you -- even many on the left. It has been your lack of filter on social media (and sometimes in person) which has upset some people. You haven't upset me because I always try to look past the rhetoric and see the real person behind it.

Jennifer Newell isn't a bad person. I don't agree with any of her politics, and I think she judges people too quickly who think differently than she does, but overall she's an ethical person who is trying to do what she thinks is right. If she did have a hand in reporting you, it was because she was actually worried you were a danger to others. Clearly she doesn't like you, and you don't like her, and that's fine. However, I don't think she's doing this from a place of hatred, but rather just believes that you're a bad/dangerous person.

Anyway, I encourage you to accept the stake from Bart. In fact, seeing you play on stream might increase people's understanding of you, and maybe some of your critics will change their minds.
