I have a really hard time believing what Klick dumped in that crazy powerlevel post from hell last night. If Luke were even half that far gone, you would know it right off the bat from his videos. You can't hide that level of it.
At worst, he becomes a space cadet for a few hours after one of those crazy ghetto spliffs he smokes in the park.
I know the DMs I have with him.
People can have a completely different public persona vs. private or lack the ability to pick up on how much of what I posted (after being asked, mind you) leaks through involuntarily or just more subtly in his videos and posts.
You can see a great deal of it if you pay attention to what he posts and especially in what he comments if you catch them before he deletes them.
He's not hiding it, not well anyway; it comes out in seemingly unrelated statements he makes mid-rant in videos, it comes out in his obvious, "I do it IRONICALLY" whenever confronted about saying racist or misogynistic shit nonsense, it comes out in the obvious way he projects his insecurities onto flatbills, cockblockers, women, or anyone else he's ranting about.
Hardly consider it a "powerleveL" to answer a question about insights I have after talking to the freak for a couple of years. Someone asked, I answered, but go off, I guess.
This is something I do because it's entertaining to see such a complete fucking lunatic up close through the glass, it's not something I
have to do or even continue doing. Frankly, it's exhausting to try and have conversations with him because it's like talking to a See 'n Say.
Believe what you want.
It could be Memory, but my cynical brain insists that he's just trying to cover his own ass, dunno.
With Lucas, it's probably a bit of both. Excessive and long term weed smoking is known to cause short and sometimes long term memory issues. Depending on how often he smokes, and it seems to be pretty often when he can afford it, it'd be stranger for him to not have any memory issues.
If he drinks as much as his videos seem to imply, that would only compound it. Being blackout drunk doesn't always mean you pass out, after all, but it nearly always means you've got chunks of while you were drunk missing from memory.
If he does have memory issues due to that, there's a very good chance he both doesn't remember AND is trying to cover his ass whenever he's told he did or said something entirely damning, like post about being a pedophile.
In terms of the pedo posts, I don't think that's a "memory" issue because if it were and he was truly horrified by it, he'd have immediately gone and deleted those posts and all of them are still up.
Considering he only switched to "18-24" from "16-24" from "under 26" between 2016 (basing that on his first youtube videos, I think he was saying under 26 a few years prior to that as well) and 2020, it's definitely a CYA thing.
That all aside, the Cannon St. Warming Shelter seems to be run by the city of Spokane; they might want to be made aware of the kind of degenerate creep they're allowing to stay there.
