Way back Violet was one of the people banging the drum of it being abusive to try to contact someone that blocked you, it was like violating a restraining order and don't try to use a middleman to contact that person it is also abusive. It's none of your business why they did it and you don't have the right to police other peoples feelings, just suck it down and move on instead of being a creep. As I remember it it was of course related to Zoe or one of his waifus blocking someone who then freaked out and wanted to know why, probably for a good reason: is it a sign that they will be cancelled?
That's what made it so funny when Jake desperately tried to find middlemen willing to forward messages to Quinn when it was clear that she didn't want anything to do with him. From that came his idea that if only he could explain that he's not wrong, they are wrong and should unblock him, apologize and let him into their twitter-lives again, then everything would be right in the world. That's actually disturbing and if it happened in a real life breakup and continued for years afterwards it would absolutely be abusive and completely insane behavior.
It's indicative of Jakey as a whole, really. Over half a decade since GG has been relevant, he still calls Notch a neo-nazi, still badmouths Brad Wardell, still claims 8chan is a child porn site (despite 8chan as most know it dying ages ago),
still claims Frederick Brennan is a threat to his life (that last one's been pinned to his Twitter for a fucking year now), and so on. Neither the people Jake is going after, nor the people he does this shit on behalf of want anything to do with him and ages after the
entire conflict's been forgotten, he's still there, still attempting the same shit with only token changes in tactics or techniques.
One of the key traits of a true abuser is that they do not change willingly. This is because they do not see genuinely see themselves as at fault. Abusers that legitimately want to reform have to accept responsibility for what they've done, and Jakeyboo will never take that step. In fact it's kind of amazing just how immature and bass-ackwards his thought processes are for someone of his age.
One of the key traits of an adult and one of the surest signs that an adult has a mature capacity for self-improvement is that they can own up to their mistakes. Jake never has; it's always someone else's fault, either because they dared attack one of his white knight targets or because they blocked Jake. Excuses are a juvenile mechanism for mistakes; Jake has never stopped making them and never stopped blaming everyone
except himself for his problems. Concepts like mercy, forgiveness, and temperence are all necessary to a mature worldview; Jake has never once tried to make amends to anyone he has ever wronged, and that list goes on for pages. Jake demands any action on his part to be met by massive, sweeping accessions on the part of everyone else, ignoring that friendships are not one-directional (Jake is allowed to be infinitely needy, and you exist to serve him in a parasitic relationship). He does not carry his weight in any relationship and leverages his personal power solely for selfish gain, never for others, even when he was active in groups like CON. He never even listens to the grievances of his own side or listens to their complaints, because he genuinely doesn't see what he's doing as wrong. Jake doesn't even accept the consequences of actions that he knowingly conducted, pretending they were accidental, even when obviously conducted with outright malice.
If Jake wasn't so openlysocially retarded, I would fucking swear he was a fucking psychopath.
