Why?
Posted disinformation and shut off comments when people questioned his source.
What specifically is a lie?
The claims about the attackers framing the story are not supported by the story or the police report.
Just coming online this weekend now. Can you someone link why this is a lie and why it matters? I feel like I'm missing something.
It's a lie because it's not true. It matters, because telling the truth is important.
I feel like we're in agreement about this. I'm just not sure what the untruth is. Was Big Balls not assaulted? Was he not harassing someone? Was he in a different city when he got wounded? Was there only one assailant instead of two? I'm seriously just a bit lost.
As I understand it, there are no reports that Coristine was trying to pick up the girl or harassing here.
Yeah, that's the part that's fake. He did get beat up, but the stuff about him picking up the girl is made up.
There’s no evidence that he was trying to get with or otherwise harass the 15 year old.

At least they didn’t use the Dutch communist burned down the Reichstag story to kick off the take over but it’s just as ridiculous.
Maybe it's a lie, but isn't it just horrible that it *could be true?* ...is what maga says about every lie Trump / Fox News spreads. You know what, let us have this one.
clearsky.app/thomaspayne.... you can verify the rate and nature of the blocking here.
Yeah, he's definitely worth blocking.
You know, I was genuinely in the realm of 'Well, maybe they have real information about this' or 'Maybe they haven't looked into it and got mislead by something' up to like, 2 hours ago. It's, uh, difficult to model a reasonable thing where they don't post anything, but block (manually) hundreds.
Something like 1500 people over five minutes. That was done via script. Looks like the account did something similar back in January, but only blocked a couple hundred that time.
Fair enough, I wasn't entirely clear on how many, I scrolled back to the start and saw it at a rate of a few every minute or so starting over an hour ago, I had just assumed that rate was constant, but you're right, apparently they jumped an order of magnitude later.
And they're just posting other things now, which is certainly a Choice (nothing you likely haven't seen elsewhere, not worth looking at, was just shutting down windows). Still no actual things said about this whole situation.
Note also the shitty genAI avatar made to appear like a person. I'd call that a red flag.
They copied a Reddit comment verbatim
Is it bad that I want it to be true that Big Balls got beat up by a teenager?
It is true. What isn’t true is that he was sexually harassing a teenager (well, aside from his own self-abuse).
I guess that’s good though.

Nah
So the kids have been released in that they've been stepped down from juvenile confinement to being allowed to go home pending additional proceedings. But that's typical with juvenile defendants.

That’s a lot of blocking!

The clout! We must haves it! We needs it!
I respectfully disagree that his blocking people is an admission that he's lying. To me, it reads like an unwillingness to admit that his favored narrative is wrong. Something you do see occasionally on social media.
I'm more impressed that he's gotten nearly 8,000 people to block him, mostly in the last half hour! Mind you, I don't fault him for falling for the "BB is a sexual harasser" story — I fell for it too. His sin is not admitting that he did.
Dude with genAI profile photo spreading lies and he has 2.7K followers. This site really has a problem.
