You’ve done what again? (Comments)

Quite often, we hear folks tell us, “no one pays attention to you” or “your website sucks” or “you’re a racist, ’cause you only go after folks of color.”

Allow me to retort.

Who the fuck do you think you are?

In this business, I really only listen to two people — Fane Lozman and my legal team. Lozman, because he’s ultra bright with an amazing track record and my attorneys, as they’ve kept me out of the Court system.

Now, onto MAOS’ methods and means, let’s look at our track record.
