Dear Brothermen & Mother Huckers,
What an amazing life Pat must lead. He believes his delusions so completely, so without question, that his delusions have become his reality. We see an abject failure & drain on our overall socioeconomic system. But every morning this narcissist wakes up and thinks he is a successful science fiction author, political pundit, social provocateur & stand up comedian. He doesn’t need to work hard, invest wisely & purchase a nice home… because in his mind he already lives in a castle. He doesn’t need to buy a V8 Mustang… because in his mind he is the second coming of Steve McQueen.
We think he purposely lies when he says things like “These online terrorists doxxed my information to a white supremacist group to have my wife and I killed.” In his mind, he isn’t lying. He believes this with 100% of his being. The cognitive dissonance between his perceived & actual existence is too great for him to bare. Hell, it drove him to file a lawsuit that result in changing court precedent if a judge ruled in his favor.
He has people that love him. We think Nikki is smart enough to see through the false machismo & internet bravado… but she isn’t. This is the woman that thought marrying Patrick Tomlinson during her child bearing years would be a smart thing to do. She too has become a prisoner of his delusions of grandeur. Sure, she has the body of a high school, baseball umpire… but to Pat she is built like Adriana Chechik. He has the local pub. Even after being faxed photographic evidence that one of their patrons performed fellatio on Donald J. Trump, they still let him sit there… typing… poorly tipping… drinking his IPA.
Can we break through the dissonance? Can we make Pat see the true nature of his reality? Are we chasing a pyrrhic victory?
What would Philip Marma do?
