The SMAC legal arm of the Mormon Delusion and Deception Board has a short expose on all the money stolen from the Feds through PPP loans by John Dehlin and the Open Stories Boards.

You might say, why should anyone listen to that crank when the Church and apologetic Mormons have taken even more money? Because Mormons are shameless in their attacks and unable to acknowledge their own deeds.

SMAC posted this gem:

I wonder if any "pro-Mormon" outfits have sought/received government handouts. I hope not. Thanks, -Smac

Two posts later, Dr. Steuss delivers this devasting response:

From a brief look through ProPublica's searchable database, the More Good Foundation has had over half a million in PPP loans forgiven. $301,258 forgiven as of 3/7/22, and $233,980 forgiven as of 11/3/2020. FAIR had $13,401 forgiven. The Mormon Heritage Association had $27,569 forgiven. The Book of Mormon Foundation had $18,900 forgiven.

A humiliated SMAC then quickly changes the subject by posting about politics and the Ensign Peak Fund. As this board's self-appointed missionary, MG likes to say, that guy is a total loser.

Steuss is a total bad ass.

I find it amusing that DCP wasn’t savvy enough to grab some of that PPP rain that every other Mopologist organization took full advantage of. Interpreter really is a Mickey Mouse organization.

I have to second that. He's been that for years. He's controlled and reasonable, the perfect antidote to the Mormon virus.

On the reverse, SMAC sounds like a really bad lawyer. Not checking your facts before presenting an argument? That’s Day One Law School stuff.

For what it's worth, he is generally in the minority over there in whatever thread he participates. Most posters who would have agreed with him no longer post there and he is regularly challenged by other frequent posters there. His proclivity to turn a discussion into an agonizing lengthy cross examination makes any point he might have not worth the time to read.

I do wonder how he actually does RL work given the amount of time he spends creating the absurdly long responses he posts?

He does not have to be good or make sense to lead the Intelligensia Mormonium at that website. He just needs to make noise, allowing those who fund such Mormon projects to know they exist.

Smac defines Mormon morality quite well. Things are either malum in se or malum prohibitum, with the malum prohibitum being the category of concern. Mormon morality is whatever they can get away with.

He obviously has a blind spot for cojcolds.

Nehor just called Smac out for botching a report on Trans surgeries. I assume Smac posted it because the LDS Church is one of those right-wing hate groups that do not mind lying if it helps bash the LGBTQ community.
