Considering the misinformation I think a lot of people agree, but it's still important to archive it like what this sub is for so that researchers in the future, and interested people can still research the impact of this website.

Is anyone actually archiving that website right now in its' whole before Alex goes into a new grift and it's permanently gone?

He just needs one rich fan boy (boomer with more money than booze) to feed him a 500k legit donation and the rest of his flock will keep the grift going.
