Fuck off, antisemites!

    1. Although I’ve saved the emails, chats, and screenshots containing that information I’ve asked the individuals who shared it with me to come forward themselves. This post is just notifying the culprits that the axe is about to fall, especially the fellow who’s been sexually grooming teenagers on their forum and associated Discord. I’ve also got a plant who will make sure that it comes to the moderators’ attention (preferably publicly.) Now I can just sit back and watch the show. And if that doesn’t produce the results I want, like I said I’ve got a folder full of the original communications. Gods, this is gonna be insane …

      1. I look forward to it. Especially if one of those people is who I think you’re talking about. I would have never thought it but I can’t help but take it personally that I was close to that person at a young age. Nothing happened between us but it sickens me that it could have

        1. That would be him. I found what you told me about your time there really disturbing, especially since I thought I knew him pretty well through the Starry Bull community (I mean, we spent hours and hours chatting via Slack.) The two versions didn’t really line up, but I trusted your account and started observing his interactions, especially with the younger members, more closely. We eventually parted ways and a year or so later I got a weird email from him apologizing for how he had been shit-talking me (which I had no knowledge of) and just deleted the email without responding. About six months later a 16 year old wrote me with questions about sexual grooming in Hellenismos. I eventually pieced together who he was talking about, and counseled him as well as I could, and advised him to contact a professional therapist and the authorities. More time passed, and the bullshit with the Xenia Project happened where I warned them about another predator in the community Jon DeClas aka Pyrokanthos, who was the husband of Diana Paxson. (If you know anything about her and Marion Zimmer Bradley you know why that’s really concerning.) For my troubles I got kicked out of the group, and the Nazi accusations increased. They eventually chose our Australian friend to verify the evidence I’d presented, ironically enough, which he did and Pyrokanthos was kicked out. Apparently there was also a big to-do on the main list, which I was never subscribed to, about me and a couple months later another teenager contacted me with an even more disturbing story. Unfortunately he deleted his account before I could respond, just needing to tell his story to someone who would listen and believe him, and since I went so hard after Pyrokanthos he chose me, I guess. The third kid contacted me a couple years later, and apparently had no idea of my previous friendship with the Australian asshole. His was probably the worst of the stories. Around that time I started noticing AA posting on r/dionysus (especially to the ones sharing their anime art or their queerness) and eventually he was made a moderator. His access to such troubled youth concerned me greatly, but there wasn’t really anything I could do since the other mods clearly had it out for me and so weren’t inclined to listen. My suspicions were confirmed when a member of their private Discord sent me a bunch of screen shots, including exchanges between him and more kids where sexual grooming was going on out in the open. Every so often I’ll rant about how they call me a Nazi to blow off steam. I don’t really care that they’re spreading such bullshit about me. (I haven’t cared about others’ opinion of me since preschool.) It’s frustration over this and similar situations which I usually can’t do anything about because things are shared in confidence and I can’t communicate with the mods because they have their panties in a wad over my exploration of the Dionysian associations of the Black Sun. So I rant about Nazism instead. Well, I’m fucking done. Hence this post, and several emails I sent off this afternoon. I think I’d rather have my reputation as someone who keeps confidence blown than stay silent and thus tangentially complicit any longer. Unfortunately that would affect my ability to act in the capacity of Orpheotelest and I need to pray, and reflect, and talk with Dionysos before any further action is taken. (Plus see if any of the people I contacted respond.) But tonight I am very much of the opinion that if this is what the mainstream Hellenic and Dionysian communities are gonna be, the only solution is to fucking burn them to the ground. And it’s not just been tonight: hence the couple of years I avoided the internet altogether, and have stuck closely to my own blog since I’ve returned, focusing on my real world devotional activities and dreams for the Starry Bull, Bear and Ram rather than joining or starting any groups. I sometimes question if there was any point to returning. Anyway, thank you for letting me get this off my chest and I am deeply sorry for what you went through. It shouldn’t have been like this.

          1. It’s okay, Sannion. It was a learning experience. Everything I have been through has taught me a lot. Enough to know that the only correct response in this situation is to destroy these communities. Burn them. Crush them. Trample them underfoot. They have outgrown their usefulness and vitality. If you taught me anything, Sannion, you taught me that the Lord Dionysos destroys so that proper health can be restored. You taught me that there isn’t a single thing in this world that should be held onto except the Gods. May this community be cleansed with the fires from the heavens that first announced the coming of the Lord when He emerged dancing from His mother’s burning corpse. There is no one so high that our Lord cannot pass them through the flames. If any of our former friends were ever half the Dionysians they claimed to be they will accept this fire and know that they deserve to be ashes. They deserve to be torn apart. May Dionysos grant them the humility to accept their fate.

  1. Gees, “Lord help us and save us that old Mrs. Davis didn’t know a herring from a fish. “_ Old Nova Scotian saying, I grew up with.

    It seems the worm turns these days. I guess, this where you do what you do with the info. Gee, I am so far removed from all of this, that I have no idea about any of this. Other than my squirrel senses pick-up on nonsense, and I just ignore the fools.

    I guess I do think I know the AA person. Sigh.

  2. Last comment: How do you dance on the knife’s edge between knowing and telling? How does the situation unfold? Perhaps, I should go deeper into your prayers to find out.

    1. I actually have a more complex, detailed plan than I described here. Posting shit on the internet doesn’t really accomplish the goal of removing these predators from our midst, except that it might intimidate his co-moderators into either removing him from a position of authority or kicking him out of the group so that he no longer has access to vulnerable children. It won’t stop the problem, however, because he’ll just move on, change his online persona, and start the predation somewhere else.

      I mean, I suppose that’s better than doing nothing, but I actually want to stop this problem. Which is difficult when most of my information is 5+ years out of date, from accounts that are no longer active, and often lacking actionable evidence. Hell, I don’t even know what part of Australia this guy is currently residing in, so I can’t even forward the information I do have to the local authorities. However, by making it known that this behavior is going on and action is being taken to stop it, I have already had people come forward and contact me, with more recent and progressively worse accounts of abuse. I am encouraging them to take action themselves and share this with the moderators, and more importantly local authorities. Even if he’s no longer there it gets the process started, and in the hands of people who can actually do something tangible about it.

      I don’t want this son of a bitch to have a shitty reputation in online Hellenic forums. I want him behind bars, where he can’t harm children any more. If that has the added effect of signalling to potential predators that we won’t tolerate this kind of behavior in our communities all the better. But this shit thrives where there is silence and indifference. And I understand why a lot of folks are intimidated and don’t want to come forward initially. They aren’t heard, action isn’t taken, and these people are usually well-liked and have supporters who are going to harass and threaten and damage their reputations, both in public and private. That is a lot to go up against, especially if you’re an isolated kid who is just starting out in our communities.

      Well, I’ve got nothing to lose. People have said the worst things imaginable about me, excluded me from the mainstream, doxed me, etc etc etc. And I’m still here, still speaking out on dangerous and controversial issues, still sharing my perspective on the Gods and the religion. Their threats are meaningless, even when they dox my address and phone number and other personal information. I have no skeletons in my closet I need fear being exposed, I am self-employed as an author and religious specialist, and I’m a big guy with a high pain tolerance and am comfortable with violence, so it would be very foolish of them to step to me in person. Therefore I am in a privileged position to be a gadfly on the ass of these abusers and their accomplices until something’s finally done about it. I’ve been responsible for the removal of 3 predators so far. Pyrokanthos publicly, and the others were handled more privately. Possibly more I’ll never know about. And I have every intention to keep doing this as long as the Gods give me the vitality and opportunity to do so, and I will do it by whatever means necessary.
