The more I think about it the more I despise Dr Drae. So he figured this fantastic easy way into secretly selling the site by defrauding some dude? I mean he literally tried to fuck over everyone while coyly asking for donations. He then proceeded to parachute into politics thread and blindly shill for Hillary.
If you recall the hack attacks, right after he and Teljair asked for donations around when Cloudflare started to pop up I sent Teljair a PM asking for a bit more info regarding the attacks, essentially I didn't want to chase good money after shit infrastructure and planning and part of that was who was actually attacking and that sort of info. Of course I never got a response.
Starts making a little more sense in retrospect that this bullshit was all starting to come together around that time.
