sorry, man. I used to feel quite bad for this guy and would engage him trying to better understand what he actually wanted and why he'd unhinged tag me. Unfortunately he's absolutely awful at not basically driving off anyone who might support him by preemptively attacking with really terribly reasoned takes that don't hold water the second you consider them. Over time, I've come to realize his reading comprehension is really poor and his reasoning is unfortunately super disjointed. He gets about as far as recognizing that things are public on a blockchain, but fabricated weird interconnections if you don't immediately agree with him, or don't immediately ingratiate yourself when he tags you yelling at you for his beef with someone else. It's such poor logic and cognitive dissonance... I spent a week or so trying to understand what he wanted and trying to talk to him like a human, but he just ranted about how I need to force others to do things he demands because he said so. He's unfortunately unable to draw a line between that if he can't force me to do what he wants, I can't force someone else to do what he wants either. It's really funny, when you get thinking about it 😂

I kind of forget he exists entirely until someone like you mentions him, because I simply muted him out of all my feeds after he proved he wasn't willing in any way to have any form of conversation. He doesn't quite have tough enough skin to be a badass and do muting/blacklisting for himself, which is too bad, because I think if he turned it around I'd probably at least attempt to read his content. So few people learn the superpower that comes from simply refusing to center your life around someone else trying to get under your skin.

Honestly, if you don't behave the way he wants, he assumes that trying to goad you with spam will wear you down or influence your behaviour. I don't downvote at all unless it's super egregious or dangerous stuff, but I wouldn't have bothered wasting the rcs on him anyways even if I did, because it honestly seemed secretly back then like that's what he wanted with a bit of a martyr fetish thrown in. A bummer, but not worth your energy. I assume since we're chatting about it you'll be designated to be my alt account now or something similar! Sorry you put the effort in, but thanks for the reminder/laugh 😂
