Okay, late to the party on this one. WHY IN THE FUCK DID SPECTRE CALL SCHNEIDER?!?!?! IS THAT NOT TOUCHING THE COW?!?!?!
It is, but given that he was halal'ed back in 2021, and run off the site, it's basically a moot point now from an administrative standpoint. I suppose, as an officially halal lolcow, he's free to touch as much poo as he wants.
The thing about Spectre is that what he desperately wants... more than anything in the world... is to be an e-celebrity. Lacking the requisite charisma and intelligence to succeed as a mere commentary channel, his M.O. is to try and rise above everybody else by
directly involving himself in the e-drama he discusses.
Case in point: Very shortly after Spectre's halal it came out that he was interfering in
another court case in which he (as a non lawyer) wrote one or more of the defendant's legal briefs. He bragged about it on the Farms, but then tried to cover his tracks by deleting those posts. Null was tipped off to this, and undeleted the posts. The named defendant in that case also admitted that he had a
quid-pro-quo arrangement with Spectre whereby, if Spectre's motion for dismissal was granted, Spectre would be paid in clout. Which is to say that Spectre would be able to brag about his legal acumen and dunk on the Plaintiff and his (actual) attorneys. (Spoiler: The judge subsequently denied the motion for early dismissal that Spectre wrote).
Somewhat similarly, the reason we know that Spectre was the other participant in the "Schneider affair" is not because Nick or Schneider have said so, but because Spectre was over on his own channel mouthing off about it. He does Nick no favors in bragging about this and outing himself, because most people have figured out by now that Spectre is a pathological liar. Meanwhile, Nick has always said that one of his mods solicited info from Schneider. Not mentioning Spectre by name. If this whole thing didn't involve Spectre, I think people might actually grant greater credence to this alleged phone call. And I think Nick is aware of that fact.
Has Schneider actually confirmed this weirdo contacting him? Because if you know anything about that guy he could easily have made the whole thing up and just sold Nick a bill of goods and Nick is too drugged and retarded to tell the difference at this point.
That was part of my point when I said that this whole thing is fucking insane.
Nobody knows what actually happened there except Spectre and Schneider and, as far as I know, Schneider hasn't said shit.
That Nick just takes Spectre at his word, and nurses a hate-boner that might inhibit any form of settlement or negotiation, is fucking cray-cray.
I don't know much about Schneider, but I know that if Spectre says the sky is blue, you open up a window and check that shit.
OBVIOUSLY, the solution here is for Nick to pick up the phone, call Schneider, and get Schneider's side of the story. You know... like an
adult.
But this whole case is in fucking clown world now.
