That's the balance with Kevin. He can joke about himself and whine if it nets him pity, but the moment somebody says something at his expense, he tries to guilt trip them into deleting it. Same thing with his post about Star Wars, here.
He really does just live in his own world and gets angry whenever somebody challenges it. If your world view is so tenuous that you need to constantly censor contradictory information, that's a sign in of itself that you're living a pathetic fantasy.
This is Kevin's fundamental contradiction. On the one hand he wants to be isolated from the world. He's financially independent and has gone off to live in the middle of nowhere in an off-grid shack where the only people he will interact with are just like him and share all his opinions. He has cut himself off from his family and his past life, even disavowing his own gender in an attempt to erase the past and permanently regress into the little girl he feels he never got the chance to be.
To be honest, that's so far so good. I think a lot of us would quit the rat race if we could and live with a small number of like-minded people and not bother with the world, its assorted miseries, and the annoying people that it's full of. I respect anyone who does that, even if they're weird troons. I'm a Libertarian at heart, go and do what makes you happy, and do it on your own terms. Live the dream.
But that's not enough for Kev, and therein lies his problem - he is too narcissistic to cut himself off from society. He wants "validation", but only in the form of praise or flattery (preferably sexual flattery). He can't just quietly live his ideal life because if he did that he wouldn't be able to lord his superiority over others. So he takes to Twitter and bullies his followers into praising him.
Problem with that is, if you live your life that publicly, you're going to get feedback, and not all of it positive. In fact if you're a self-obsessed revolting bully like Kev, you're going to get quite a lot of criticism. And Kev fled to the Colorado Dilation Station to get away from criticism, because his ego is too fragile to cope with dissent.
Kev wants his Internet presence to be a sort of one-way valve. His pronouncements go out, he gets praise, that's it. But the criticism, and reality beyond the bubble he's trying to build, are there, and it's getting bigger and more widespread as more people notice his antics and more former friends are mistreated by him.
He knows it's out there, as his last meltdown showed. He's trying to ignore it, but reality is seeping in through the same hole he cut in his bubble to shit on people. It's an interesting sort of irony.
