PayPal wipes out a new round of accounts while servicing undisguised pedophiles
Would it really surprise anyone if an uncomfortably high percentage of transgender "women" are just run-of-the-mill fucking sickos in drag?
I’m not sure how much actual forecasting I’ve committed to on Beck of the Pack over the past two-plus years in addition to supplying a stream of indignant and irreverent takes. But the news offers near-daily confirmation that I’ve been on target with a spate of predictions I wish I’d been wrong about.
In mid-February, while chronicling in real time a counterclockwise road trip I took with Rosie through the mutually neighboring states of Colorado, Utah, Arizona, and New Mexico, I reserved several inevitable paragraphs for the similarly inexorable decay of the world at large. This was one of them:
More foreboding than any of this is PayPal’s recent decision to make it impossible to view your running account balance, a feature the company had already made more cumbersome to access last year. That such a longstanding given in online banking (including e-wallets) is being unpretentiously eliminated seems certain to herald a new era of even more hidden fees being implemented financial-industry-wide and their incremental individual impact being widely unnoticed by millions of consumers.
At the end of June, I wound up deleting my PayPal account. While the triggering event was becoming exasperated with the company’s ongoing, undisguised cash-grab through its continual policy changes, I was more infuriated by PayPal’s unilateral decision the previous month to not only terminate the accounts of anti-war writers but threaten to keep their money. I also pointed out in that post that the payment processor for Substack, Stripe, had already pulled a similar stunt after an African reporter called out then-White House press secretary and undisputed cunt-of-the-century Jen Psaki during one of her condescending public lie-fests.
What’s really bad for everyone about all of this, even though almost everyone refuses to acknowledge it, is that PayPal and Stripe have operated with no accountability whatsoever in making these life-crushing decisions, acting instead like unregulated banks. And while banks are bad enough, they are, at least on paper, subject to certain regulations that payment processors are not.
This is while equally faceless representatives of Meta Platforms, Twitter, and YouTube go on sending equally cold, nameless messages conveying equally capricious bans and account terminations and channel demonetizations. They all use the excuse of “misinformation,” in most cases punishment for publishing true (or at least debatable) but government-disallowed information. And when that somehow fails, they just go with “policy violations,” the online equivalent of a cop charging someone with disturbing the peace when that someone is in the process of calmly revealing to an audience that the cop is being a fucking dipshit.
Things just became a lot worse. On Tuesday, PayPal and its subsidiary Venmo shuttered without warning at least three accounts: Those belonging to The Daily Sceptic, the Free Speech Union, and Gays Against Groomers. The latter group is run by a female Republican operative and represents gay people who from the start have resisted the expansion of “LGB” to include various other letters traditional gay people have understandably come to associate with both uncontrolled perversities and sociopathic discursive techniques, including the “you’re with us or against us” credo that will eventually not only curb but doom the trans “movement” and hurt a lot of innocent trans people in the process.
From the onset of the Wokedemic, trans activists have been brutalizing traditional liberal feminists as pursuing ignoble, not-inclusive-enough goals. These insane clowns dismiss women like my mother, who forty years ago helped pave the way for these fucknuts to have the voices and influence they possess, as “TERFs” (trans-exclusionary radical feminists, who aren’t the radical ones in this mix).
I’ve long been aware that gay men and lesbians my age, even the ones who want to be maximally supportive of women’s and human rights, are uncomfortable with being lumped in with trans people simply because they don’t enjoy heterosexual sex. You might notice that people who call themselves gay tend to be utterly normal human beings, as do many longtime trans people, whereas this crop of trans activists is a batch of psychopaths whose antics are being unilaterally supported by the liberal media.
Whatever you think of Gays Against Groomers, whose stated mission is to point out using graphic examples why its members—and gay people generally—want no association whatsoever with transgender people, PayPal nixing its account for it being an “anti-trans hate group” is absurd for any number of reasons. One is that online trans people undeniably constitute a seething, lying, cancel-happy hate-cartel of their own—not just using PayPal’s own standard, but any reasonable standard.
The other is PayPal’s galactic moral confusion, manifesting here as rank hypocrisy. Did you know of the Prostasia Foundation? It boasts a support group for “minor attracted people,” traditionally known as pedophiles. And PayPal and Venmo lend their services to the Prostasia Foundation.
Gays Against Groomers has a Twitter thread about this and the conduct of the Prostasia Foundation, which does not appear to be an honorable outfit.
Meanwhile, here is Google’s indexing at 2 p.m. on Friday afternoon of the news stories about PayPal’s actions. If they seem slanted toward the outlets calling Gays Against Groomers a hate group, don’t be. Google not only does this routinely, but it, too, deleted the group’s account. This is the first time I have heard of anyone’s entire Google account being deleted with no warning. Imagine how crippling that would be to your business if your information storage and transfer is all conducted through GMail, Google Chat, Google Docs, etc. Maybe you’d lose thousands of properly backed-up photos, too.
It was plain from the start that allowing transfemales and DSD people to compete as females in sports was a mistake. Now that public opinion is slowly catching up to reality despite the efforts of Women’s Running and other Outside, Inc. offerings, the entire mainstream liberal media, and the tech giants, people who were hoarsely behind this shit have either fallen silent or begun erasing evidence of their past pro-trans yammering outright.
These people are flat-out fucking pussies as well as wrong, and why anyone would listen to a demonstrated intellectual coward about anything important, whether that person was a “journalist or a coach, is unfathomable. I completely understand why my detractors hate me as much as they do and won’t engage me; if someone with twice my brains were constantly firing evidence of my own rank incompetence and lying into my slack-jawed, squint-eyed face along with most the insults I deserved, I’d be ashamed of myself, too, and perhaps inclined to pretend that the meanness of my interlocutors and critics was the real reason I avoided and blocked them. Especially if that motherfucker almost always turned out to be right.
By the way, all of this is about to get even worse. It didn’t take me being Nostradamus to foresee the above and many other things; it just takes an open mind not giving a shit whether you belong to a tribe of triumphantly brainwashed cable-news devotees. You can all at least delete your PayPal accounts; I’m sure a “free speech” alternative will crop up soon and last a while before being bought up by the same billionaires who now own Congress, the media, and even the “fact-checking” organizations that most liberals still deludedly rely on. Maybe when the recession hits, none of this will seem important.
