Anths social media deletion theories thread:
22 2018-09-04 by Toss__Pot
His publishers have demanded it.
Anth's had a moment of self-awareness.
An outlier of the sub has actually done something naughty & Anth's reported it to authorities, he's been told not to engage during the investigation (Derick & Kathy(?))

The purpose of the Fire Island trip was an intervention and to get Ant help.

I could see some version of this being true. An honest discussion that his presence online is bad for business and self-destructive. About 5 years too late.

Keith: "Anthony look around, you see all these men with their dicks hanging out?" "It's ok, we support your dabbling in cock, even Missy does, we know she's in it for the money"
Missy: "I'll be your beard for as long as you need me, this is the island of your people"

Keith waited until Anthony was sucking his dick to start the intervention. He won't talk with his mouth full and doesn't stop until he gets his sticky treat.

The only person in Ant's life who cares for his welfare is Dawn and maybe Ron. Everyone else is just an employee. I don't see what people like Keith or Missy have to gain from trying to help him.

They gain financial stability, and missy gets a free roof over her head.
1 Christopher_Barton 2018-09-04
Missy deactivating, too, lends credence to this theory.

Keith is his publisher

He thinks he has a game winning strategy, but he'll Cumia it up, as usual, to our delight.

I'm guessing it was a relationship thing, strongman Missy and him are going to work on their RL.

Hopefully all those tweets directed at activist groups and news organizations accusing him of being a filthy child groomer are catching up to him.
1 Dr-Seepage 2018-09-04
Why would he delete his social media because someone else was in trouble?
1 Toss__Pot 2018-09-04
he knows he can't control himself
or
authorities might tell him to stay away from social media while they investigate
ALSO
You can bet he says all sorts of shit under alt-accounts, he might be scared of getting backtraced if a real investigation is going on

Ant/Joe/or both may have been contacted by official Twitter representatives or finally read the Twitter terms of service notifying them that every tweet and private message is recorded and stored indefinitely on Twitter servers whether you delete the message or comment, disable your account, or delete your account. He may also now be aware that your IP address when logging in to Twitter or posting a comment is recorded. Logging into different accounts doesn't necessarily hide your identity. I wonder what things the Cumias have been up to...
1 Hassan_iBlackSabbath 2018-09-04
My best guess is he's stuffed those accounts up his ass to try to get the vibrating egg out.
1 Toss__Pot 2018-09-04
I always assumed he had his twitter notifications connected to the ass egg, hence he was so prolific, trying to get his buzz on

There's only one proxy reality where this sentence makes complete sense and is saliently correct; this hellscape we tirelessly document °_°7
1 BoardroomBimmy 2018-09-04
Its definitely not the second thing, that's for sure.
1 Mu_Scevich 2018-09-04
One thing that could've saved Ant a ton of problems is a social media PR person. I know, I know... He would've never have done that, but when you already have a platform to spew your opinions for hours every week, why do you need to continue to do it on social media 24/7? It really makes no sense. Especially when they were on an international media platform at SXM and syndicated on FM, why was twitter and going viral on youtube so damn important? YOU'RE ALREADY ON THE RADIO ALL DAY LONG! You have the fame and the platform to express yourself to millions of listeners and somehow that's not enough? They both fucked up their careers out of an obsession to basically downgrade their fame for a viral video and shout racists shit on twitter. They really are stupid people.
1 anjabro 2018-09-04
Good point, and one which I seem to remember him making about Opie's "trying to go viral" obsession at one point... (Was it in Greggshells.? ) Another case of him not taking his own advice.
1 Sternacthegreat 2018-09-04
Don't think intervention, Anthony's too pig headed to listen, and would take it as a slight. Also Missy deleted her stuff, etc....
I didn't think of the publisher angle, but it's a good one. I don't think Anthony is gone from social media, he needs that for sales. Part of the sales model for the book and podcast is an unspoken thing between Cumia and his fans that if they buy, sub, etc.... there is a chance of a personal interaction with Cumia. Whether it be a retweet, like, follow, or the mythical Compound invite, he needs that connection with fans to drive sales.
Instead, I think a deep cleaning of Anthony's social profile is being planned, which might include all new Twitters and Facebooks. There might of been a lot of unfound gold in them, waiting to be discovered (eg - like that Venmo ). So it's quicker to delete and start over.
Also, there's the troll problem. I still think him and Keith will launch a quiet Twitter cleansing during the next week or two. Or perhaps a direct legal assault on the sub in some way for harassment or similar.
Realistically he needs a personal social media presence by October at the latest. So we'll know soon.
Strange times.

Its definitely not his publishers. He sold less than 300 books on Amazon
1 Toss__Pot 2018-09-04
maybe that's why they're concerned
1 JohnJJohnsonMN 2018-09-04
More likely he just got really drunk and deleted everything.
1 Toss__Pot 2018-09-04
wow, how did I miss that one.
Or maybe Missy got fed up, judo-pinned him down & deleted everything.
1 ChadKensingtonBulge 2018-09-04
A vanity press company doesn't tell the guy literally selling 100s of books to friends and family to delete his Facebook.
1 Toss__Pot 2018-09-04
like a man in orthopedic shoes... I stand corrected
1 PFCBloodFart 2018-09-04
Or it was the terroristic threats to certain individuals
