Cass Oakdown/Panopticon Dump Thread

[lb_lee]

Okay, this has happened enough times that I feel like it might prove useful.

Since I finished the Cultiples series, ex-followers of Panopticon's groups have been coming forward to speak to me.  There's been a decent few of them, and I thought it might be best for them to have a centralized place to share their stories, link-dump, and otherwise talk with each other, if they so desire.  Anon comments are turned on, and also screened, so that none will appear unless I specifically say so; if you want your words unscreened, just say so, otherwise they will remain hidden.  I will keep the comments moderated.

Panopticon has my blog staked out, and they may retaliate.  Be aware.

I will also use this as a centralized post to note those folks who have already come forward and stated they're okay with being public:

• Pigeon, Panopticon's former roommate's testimony. (And here's the thread where they said they were okay with it being public.) (EDIT: tumblr purged the post, so here is the archived version.)

They keep deleting. With all the names and accounts, who can keep track? Sure, it's here. But who reads here? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

It might work.

It’s here, yes, and few read here, but at the same time, all it has to do is exist. All it has to do is be here. That’s enough both to create a record should one ever be legally necessary, God forbid, and also to let them know they’ll never know peace unless they actually own their BS and change.

We know for a fact they and their friends were handed a step-by-step guide to scrubbing their online presences as much as is possible in this day and age and they all decided it was too “stressful” to take said steps. Screenshots exist. They’re profoundly lazy, or profoundly cocky, or profoundly stupid, or profoundly masochistic, or all of the above. We feel it’s likely the latter. This whole mess is going to come to it’s inevitable head in the fairly near future, by our estimation.

We’ll bring the popcorn.

I really hope you're not attempting to infiltrate the group and aren't on the inside. If you're out, for the love of god, stay out!

Oh heavens no, this is just what can be found with a minute or two of looking and conversations with victims who consent to having their experiences shared.

Okay, good, glad you're safe. Phew! You had me worried there for a moment.
