on Snapchat, "premium accounts" are private accounts set up for permitted followers only. Online sex workers have been using private SC accounts (as well as similar features on other social media sites) in order to monetize their nude photos. The idea is that some thirsty guy pays a sex worker some money to be added to her premium account, through which the woman periodically sends nudes for all of her followers to have a wank over.

Unsurprisingly, a lot of these snapchat strippers haven't put much thought into their taxes. Apparently, a large number of them are potentially guilty of tax evasion.

A guy called David Wu has commenced Thotageddon by approaching these sex workers pretending to be a customer, getting them to state their snapchat username and a demand for payment, and then reporting them to the IRS in an attempt to get them audited.

His path of destruction has spawned a bunch of imitators and is currently causing a significant twitter shitstorm.

W.I.P. KYM entry

I guess is true what they say here: people are more afraid of the IRS than the wrath of God.
And while I'm here, please someone move this image:

oh wow is this tweet just wrong. In another tweet, she at least corrects part it is, the min to file a tax return is $10,400 or more, not $20,000, and that is total from all income, not just from snapchat.
2. No. Marking it as friends and family does not negate anything. Lying about why you got the money is also illegal.

Ummm, that's also kinda wrong in another way. What she's talking about is W-2 Income, tha'ts for being part of a larger business with multiple employees I believe.

What this kinda of service would fall under is more along the lines of a Schedule C, to quote from the IRS itself,
"Use Schedule C (Form 1040) to report income or (loss) from a business you operated
or a profession you practiced as a sole proprietor. An activity qualifies as a business if
your primary purpose for engaging in the activity is for income or profit and you are
involved in the activity with continuity and regularity."

Now, the thing about a Schedule C, is if you earn more then 400 dollars, you need to report it to the IRS. And, even if that's not the case, and indeed these self-employed women are in fact covered under the W-2, you still need to file how much you make.

Their Thirsty-Boy Dispensary is not a 501©(3) Charity, and they shouldn't be using it as Such.

What I'm also kinda disappointed about is the coverage of this. Are we really going to just use the term Incel to describe anyone who stands up to these Vapid and Destructive content creators? They fill their platforms with unruly harassers, who go into other women's stream demanding their thirst be quenched, and then go and try and get other content creators banned if they critique them. They're the worst, and now this is how we treat someone doing something good.

We call them an Incel, one of the worst things on the internet. That's a new low, imo.

>that's also kinda wrong in another way.

You are completely right. I was fairly certain you only had to make a few hundred to need to report, but couldn't remember the specifics.

>What I'm also kinda disappointed about is the coverage of this.

I don't really get the headlines I've seen demonizing the "incels". Nothing wrong with reporting someone who isn't paying taxes, but they probably are abusing the system by just reporting a bunch of people they don't like hoping some charges stick.
I don't don't understand the hate that "thots" get. Just don't watch their stream of whatever if you don't like that. Personally, I like them since my buy merch from my shop and advertise it.

Thot Culture attracts, creates, and nutures, the type of toxic male culture that everyone complains about online. The problem with this culture however is how very invasive it is for other social media outlets.

Being a thot on something like Chatterbait is fine, its pretty much what the platform was designed for. But these women go to Twitch and turn it into chatterbait, along with instagram, youtube, and any other site they can share softcore porn on. Because they're willing to encourage toxic behavior in their audiences by answering their pms with offers of services for money, it makes people think this is how all female content creators should be treated.

Thus my comments earlier. The thots feed the thirsty boys, the thirsty boys flood and overpopulate the service, theh drive normal people and normal content creators off the platform, and then cause negative press so that those who do stay have to adhere to much stricter guidelines. All because someone wanted to exploit the system to vet Money out of desperate people with no self control.

>Thot Culture attracts, creates, and nutures, the type of toxic male culture that everyone complains about online.

how so?

>it makes people think this is how all female content creators should be treated.

Makes as much sense as saying violent video games teaches people to be violent. I'm really not sure where you are getting the idea that "thots" create a toxic culture that can't be avoided. Where is the evidence?

don't bitch about "incel" if you're going to use "thot". Both are fair game.

Well if the used panties sold via g-mail fit.

To me it feels like people are doing this for the wrong reasons. I don't mind it when lawbreakers get what's coming for them, but the way that these guys are presenting themselves makes them look they're doing just to be assholes. Is there a more acceptable motive that I'm not seeing here?
