We see you for who you are and have your number, John Baku (and we know your real name, too, also something about which you can do diddly squat). You're a fragile, beshitted little fucksquib of a man, incapable of absorbing a single idea from outside your own pathetically narrow experience. You are a fart factory, a slug-slimed poo fungus, a sack of rat guts in cat vomit, a cheesy, scab-picked, pimple-squeezing finger bandage! For your latest stunt, you deserve no more than a week-old maggot burger with everything on it and flies on the side! WTAF do you think you're doing, shadow-banning dissenters and threatening BIPoC folks with DMCA takedown notices over screenshots of your comments (with profile pictures and names blurred, as per site rules) and writings accurately depicting you at your own game? If at first you don't succeed, get angry and blame a black person and/or femme/woman, just like the racist Incel fuckboi you are, right?
The comments in question, which were later redacted, and over which he threatened to file a DMCA takedown request. Unfortunately, I do not have a screenshot of the actual threat made, but I know what that sneaky puffadder is like; he would certainly do such a thing if somebody called him out and hurt his feelings.
The DMCA does not protect commentary from being critiqued or turned into satire, you complete fucking jizz wicket!
"This lawsuit stems from a particular incident in November 2013 where an individual didn’t appreciate being quoted in an article, and issued a false takedown request to have it removed. As a result, a lawsuit was filed and WordPress hopes to be compensated for the damage caused by the false takedown request."

"... blogging site WordPress.com, has won a symbolic but important victory against censorship under the guise of copyright enforcement. Last week, a California court ordered defunct political group Straight Pride UK to pay around $25,000 for telling WordPress.com to take down an interview with a student journalist, falsely claiming to hold a copyright on the material. While the group has apparently all but disappeared, it's a strike against an unfortunately common tactic: abusing automated takedown systems in order to make bad press go away."

Such bad faith and power-abusing tactics as yours really don't work to get rid of bad press; it tends to create more of it, as you're about to find out. Also, the target of a false claim has the right to appeal and press charges, which means you could end up in court for perjury. I seriously hope that you do. You need to be held to account for your shit. After all the crap you've pulled, banning and threatening dissenters, people who want a community in which they can be seen and safe, is the final fucking straw for me (as it is for many). That is a gross abuse of power and I will not stand for it! I don't even care for SR personally (since she's a freeloading cheapskate), but her socio-political views are often right on the mark and valuable to the very people you're trying to censor/silence. This is not news, since she's justifiably been openly critical of you, your team and Website since before I even joined it. Your actions are suspicious AF and you're not fooling anyone!
Users on the site call out John Baku over his abuse of power and hypocrisy
I am beyond furious; I am nearly incandescent with rage! I am quite prepared to post this on other social media sites (such as Medium and the Hive Network, even at personal expense) so that others can see exactly what a cowardly little shit you are (and there's fuck-all you can do about it)! You are so stupid that you don't even understand the wording about content ownership in your own terms of use policy document. Legally, you don't actually have a leg on which to stand, if what the lawyers on your site claim is true. You're not the only one here whom threatens others with blackmail. You are a miserable, pathetic and weak coward with small dick energy. You do not scare me in the slightest. To you, we are merely annoying/inconvenient noise at most. Thinking that we will go away and leave you be if you ban, censor, ignore or threaten us is your mistake (and, if we have anything to do with it, will be your downfall).
If you even think of taking down my content or banning my account on your site, the joke's on you. I've got backups of everything I've posted on your disgustingly vile and wretched excuse for a BDSM/fetish site and have closed/deleted my account anyway. Having finally realised just what kind of person you are, I've had enough of your bullshit. I really can't believe it took me so long to realise, but it's plainly obvious in retrospect. I'm trying not to blame/punish myself over it, because that's just what you'd want. If anyone is to be punished or feel recrimination, it should be you. I will gut you like a fish and piss on you while you choke on your own blood and filth in the gutter of some grimy Canadian back alley. You are trash and we'd be absolutely delighted to take you out.
With every horrible, insulting and/or threatening thing you type to people from minorities, you are validating my (and their) inherent distrust of men, particularly cishet white men. It's not like they haven't been persecuted enough. We do not like you, positively despise you, yet you wonder why. Others might not have this insight, but we are no strangers to the ways of abusive men like you. We know why you openly allow groomers, sexual predators, RSOs, Neo-Nazis, terrorists and traffickers to remain active on your Website for as long as you can get away with it, why you are their apologist and enabler. It's because you are exactly like them, even if you're not self-aware enough to admit/realise as much. Your own writing (on what happened when you got drunk, lost control and let the mask slip, sexually assaulted a fan) all those years ago, coupled with your many harmful actions over the years, as FuckboiClownLife's "leader", are evidence of that much. It's also clear that you are not sorry for all the harm you have done both then and since (and never will be), but that you get/got called out on it and look(ed) bad. (It's only wrong if you get caught and face opposition you can't deflect, dismiss, ignore or otherwise squash, right?) I wonder how many people know this and, if they become aware, will flee like they aught to. Hell, I didn't when I signed up or I never would have done so in the first place. I only became aware recently, thanks to a woman whom sees you more clearly than I did. Thank fuck I learned to pay attention to non-men and believe their lived experience (something you still refuse to do, after all this time). It was only after my brain kept bugging me and something clicked that all the appallingly abominable goings on, all the problems you refuse to solve despite having ample time and opportunity, put on the back burner in preference to inconsequential ones, made sense. (It's not because you're a mediocre developer with a small team and massive user base. It's because, at core, you are the root cause of Fratlife's problems. The people you champion and welcome with open arms only exacerbate that.) Technologies and platforms are the manifestations of their creators and administrators. Thanks for proving the truth of that, just as Zuckerborg and Sandberg have with the site on which you base(d) yours, like Musk is trying so hard to do with Twitter.
This is what you get when you mess with us!
I know trans* women who are more than twice the man you'll ever be. They are some of the most wonderful people I know. I wish you had even an ounce of their empathy, compassion, courage, strength and understanding of people, but you never will, being incapable of it. I would pity you, but you don't deserve that much. The people in our circles, we've dealt with abusive, bullying, spineless little cowardly turds like you for most of our lives, for as long as we can recall. We would gladly rip you limb from limb if we could. Do not even think of fucking with us; you will not win! This is not our first rodeo and, unlike you, we learn from our mistakes, adapt and improve. We don't know what makes you so arrogant, stupid and willfully ignorant, but it's really effective! Some people live and learn, but you have proven on numerous occasions that you merely live. WTF is wrong with you, you shining example of cishet white male privilege? You act like your arrogance, entitlement and ignorance are virtues. They really aren't. If what you don't know about demographics and experiences outside your own (and actively choose not to) couldn't hurt you, you'd be invulnerable, but you really aren't, no matter how powerful and removed you think you are. The people will have a revolution and stage a coup d'etat, one way or another. The time for your head to roll is long overdue, by at least a decade.
I see that. over the years, you've set aside an awfully large amount of time to humiliate yourself in front of your entire user base (although many still cheer-lead for you and sing your praises, which is concerning and highly problematic), approximately ten million people if your site's own count is to be believed. (What happened to the other six million or so that have disappeared over the last few months? Did they finally get wise to the full extent of your ways and throw in the towel like I have?)
You are a total piece of shit of a human being, an utterly despicable pile of filth! We would gladly kick you in the balls, but you don't have any. We would shove feet up your ass, but you would enjoy it. Anyone who encouraged you to build and run that site and find some friends to help you, gave you bad advice and is a danger to the international BDSM/kink community. You're the global village's prize idiot and proof that evolution can go in reverse. You're on Darwin's "Recall" list, too. Why don't you slip into something more comfortable, like a coma, for a month that is as execrably dismal and unpleasant to the people whom care about you as you are to the people about whom we care there? At least we'd have a chance of getting some fucking peace and respect, instead of tirelessly fighting the empty-headed gang of slogan-parroting bigots (fascists, homophobes, racists, transphobes, volcels, etc.) that you call caretakers and supporters. Your team's organogram is a cactus because everyone on it is a prick and poisonous to boot. If arseholes could fly, you and your crowd could have started an international airport. That would have been a better idea, in my opinion. Some cause happiness wherever they go, but you'll cause happiness whenever you go. I have an idea: Why don't you resign from your position, permanently leave the site to go play hide and go buttfuck yourself with a watermelon?
A thousand monkeys with a thousand computers would be hard-pressed to create, in a thousand years, anything as cretinous, as insidiously vile a hotbed of fascism, Incel ideology, predation, racism, ultra right-wing nationalism and toxic masculinity as your Website (excepting Facebook and Twitter; no wonder Zuck and Musk are your heroes). Well done on that; I'm sure you're incredibly proud of the seething dumpster fire in a dung-heap you've made, like a child that wants to show off its first crap in a flushing toilet! The fact that only Incels, fuckbois and Trumpers think like you and the majority of support for your illegitimate excuse for a business/company comes from them doesn't mean you're in the right; it means you're an Incel fuckboi at best (and a fascist at worst, now matter how much straddling the white picket fence you do).
It's a thankless job, but somebody's got to challenge dangerous and irresponsible fuckwits like you. Of course, we realised long ago that challenging/confronting idiots like you won't change your mind. We are just hoping people will see good reasons why they don't want to be like you and should abandon you and your Website with the urgency they can muster. We know full well that you don't. Many already have, but millions more need to wake the fuck up and GTFO Dodge while they still can or you try to ban/censor/DMCA/silence/threaten them too. I know you will try (and you might succeed with some; there are always casualties in war), but you cannot silence all of us. We will fight you all over that site and the wider Web and we will not give up, as long as it takes to get you to leave, to go back to whatever it was you were doing before you had the bright idea of giving the Web's rejects yet another platform on which to harass non-men, BIPoC, the LGBTQ+ folks and their allies.
You are the product of inadequacy and shame consuming too much radical misogyny, toxic masculinist rhetoric and stupidity. I use dipshits like you to train my snark. It's how I got so good at it. Thanks for volunteering to be the asshat of the decade, if not two of them. By the time I'm through with you, you should be well equipped to flap that gum of yours elsewhere. You go right ahead and have yourself a miserably wretched day now (just as awful as you are), you schmuck!
I can offer you no further insult, since all your flaws are evident to all whom care to scrutinize you thoroughly. You have done my work for me.
How does it feel to be on the receiving end of unbridled hatred and open threats for once, from the people whom feel betrayed by you and your team, unsafe and afraid to be there and to openly speak out against you when they know they'll likely be silenced or targeted? Utterly terrifying, isn't it (or are you so arrogant and self-assured that not a word of this reaches/perturbs you)? Now imaging receiving content like this in your DMs every single day of your life online. (Yeah, we know, you never will, are utterly unwilling to do that emotional labour.) That's other people's reality here. Now be a good boy and run home to Momma, because "bad" men and women attacked you in your own playground! Don't say you didn't deserve it or didn't see it coming. You've told far too many lies already and played innocent victim far too often, for far too long. Some might believe you, but millions (hopefully) won't. We hope that's enough to take you down and bury you for good. May you rot in bits.
You are one of God's mistakes, you crying, tragic waate of skin.
Some of the content of this post was provided to me privately, through DMs and other means, by a number of users of John Baku's antisocial media Website (hence the use of words such as "our", "us" and "we"). They wish to remain anonymous/nameless for obvious reasons. We feel that others need to be warned, loud and clear, so that they do not make the same mistakes we have or, worse, become victims of Baku's Chosen People if that can be avoided. Thank the FSM I never decided to get verified and got the hell out of there before posting this. He'd surely have this taken down and most likely come for me for speaking out if I posted it there (assuming he ever stopped sobbing uncontrollably in the fetal position).
