I turned a hater into $300

And I want to show you how we do it again

·4 min read

Two days ago I made a decision to exercise some power. To set an example.

A guy named Randall walked into my comments calling me an idiot. Pseudo-intellectual. Greedy. Nobody wants to read my wall of words. Nice guy. Thought he was going to be my predator.

By nightfall I had turned him into about $300. Made a public spectacle of him. Had strangers lining up with messages addressed to him personally, with dollar signs attached. One man dropped $100 with "say hi to Randall for me." A woman sent $1 with "decades of research vs. one insult, tough choice."
