They got Patches, the guy who DMs for the Pod About List guys, to run their campaign.

Do you think they will finally address why Virigil isn't there?

      He just stopped appearing on episodes and the rest of them never talk about him anymore. Like they just kind of pretend he dosen't exist. I don't listen to the other podcast he started with Briahna Joy Gray but I gather he stopped showing up there as well.

      I think there was a sex-pest allegation against him that caused the disappearance.

        They did officialy declare he left at some point. That was long before the allegations though (at least I think it was long, I'm not sure I really perceive the passage of time normally anymore)

        Virgil Texas, giving ammunition to the "commies don't work" stereotype, one podcast at a time.

        The account that publicised the underage grooming stuff that terrified Virgil into disappearing (assuming Chomsky didn't have him killed) wasn't actually the person involved. It was a cumtown fan who read about the allegations on the redscare subreddit and decided to run with it. The account originally only followed Nic Mullen and then followed a bunch of random lefties when they got attention. Virgil basically confirmed the rumours as true by dissappearing for an idiot.

            created the week before and literally only followed Nic originally

            follows Gwen fucking Snyder

            admitted fake name, taken from a French actress who was cointelpro'd into suicide by intelligence services spreading false accusations of extra marital affairs

            claims she wrote an article for a major website, cannot produce article

            cannot name the website she submitted her article to

            initially tweeted Virgil made fun of her for her juul, when someone pointed out juul didn't exist then, she deleted the tweet and reposted it with "vape" substituted

            the number for Virgil in her screenshot she claimd to be from 2013 wasn't in use until 2019

            claimed to have all messages saved on her icloud yet when she got access to it, all she tweeted was a screenshot of an alleged 2013 address book entry with a photo from 2017 and a number from 2019?

            Don't get me wrong, Virgil 100% did it, I'm not attempting to defend Virgil with this like at all. I just don't think that account is legitimate and I don't think the person running it thought the allegations were actually true, I think they were trolling.
