That was Jacob Curnow. He was also a regular on the Injustice boards. I dont normally use this term anymore, but he was a legit lolcow.

Jacob once made a YouTube video that was like 20 minutes long where he threaten to kill me because I was responsible for sending UFC fighter Ben Askren to his house to beat him upor something.

It was at that point I realized he actually needed help. I made a whole topic apologizing for bullying him, and owning it. I encouraged others to also not bully him.

The thing is Jacob was labeled a witch and for good reason. So since 75% of the damn NRS boards were ragging on him, I did as well. I never even considered that I was the bullyas did nobody elseit was just par for the course.

The sky is blue. The grass is green. Lets make fun of Jacob on the NRS boards.

We sometimes forget that awful people can also be the victims of bullying and harassmentand honestly that just descends them further into madness. Thats how supervillains are created.

Unfortunately, too little too late. Jacob is actually in legal trouble (maybe even prision) for drunkenly assaulting his family members with a machete. It was on a twitch live stream too.

But I do believe that I, as well as all the other posters, indirectly contributed to him going mad, which is why I try to be more aware of my actions these days. Even if I feel as if someone deserves it I still do my best to restrain.

Like me or hate me, thats a sticking point of my personal moral compass that is unwavering. Its what got me into conflict with all the Reddit folks. I didnt let them harass people, so, they made their own platform to do it

I do believe in general a community like Current Events while not all toxic, does inspire a certain type of bully mentality to it, I suppose you could call it seeking conflict with others that you disagree with.

That type of vibe just needs to be quarantined in my opinion. Doing so should make the entire platform more accessible to new users.
