Due to the twatwaffleish actions of Nick Denton, all Oppos wishing to eject themselves from the Kinjaverse can safely converse with other Oppos on our Facebook page, Oppositetalk.

Yeah because Facebook is so much more on the up and up.

Twatwaffleish? Nick denton is a Twatwaffle and always has been, even before this particular kerfuffle

Facebook is still better than Gawker. If you don’t like either, time to go over to R Saldana’s post and show support for a crowd funded forum system.

I am woefully ignorant here. What happened?

Facebook would never do anything unsavory right?

Dick Denton decided to blackmail a noted internet figure, simply for being bisexual.

TBH, I really just wanted to use the words twatwaffle and kerfuffle in the same sentence, but my point still stands

Why not Reddit?

I might just sign up for Reddit, although I find its format difficult to follow.

He didn’t actually do that. Gawker just reported it.

I guess I don't completely get it. Can you explain it to me?

This is why we need to fund a forum that is operated by R Saldana.

I’m fine with Gawker same old shit they’ve always done. Plus this guy they “outed” was actually trying to cheat on his wife with a prostitute so I’m not sure why he gets so much sympathy.

Didn’t think he was an internet figure so much as the relative to a government official and executive at a publicly traded company.

You're right, my mistake.

Joining Reddit because Gawker is run by a few morally corrupt people?

So Dude Guy tries to hook up with the prostitute. Prostitute figures out who he is and trys to get him to use his influence. Dude guy bails on prostitute and he goes to Gawker who reports the thing.

This is supposedly “outing” this guy for trying to cheat on his wife with some gay pornstar.

Why are we so concerned for Dude Guy? I don’t have a clue. Maybe because he’s gay/bi? I feel like is Dude Guy was hooking up with a lady no one would be so concerned.

Just seems silly to blow up an otherwise nice community due to the actions of some dbag on a different page. Just use oppo like this... :)

Fair enough. Maybe this will help Oppo to become the small, close-knit community it used to be.

Meh, people come people go. Oppo is fluid. Oppo will survive.

Gawker Media just assisted in the blackmailing scheme of a for-hire escort, and in the process of doing so also ruined the lives of a husband, mother, and three children. This story has no public interest except to generate page views and ad revenue.

At this point, I don't even know exactly what kind of fustercluck we are caught up in.

We don’t actually know he was cheating in a secretive way. His wife may have known and been complicit. It wouldn’t be the first time a couple was together for reasons other than love.

In the end, Gawker made a post about someone’s personal life that was no body’s business and possibly committed a crime in the process.

The first part is a good point.
