Really, it's not. He's always done this and to this degree, it's just particularly blatant because it's Glinner-related. Glinner is one of the few people Jake will actually name, I think because along with Jesse Singal he knows that everyone else in his bubble knows to hate him so he won't accidentally be calling out someone's friend, something that has burned him badly in the past. Glinner is also one of the few people who we can prove actually knows who the fuck Jake is and probably still knows who he is now. This is as opposed to people like William Shatner and Adam Baldwin, both who have burned Jake in replies on Twitter, both of whom Jake has elevated to 'death threats and Nazi stalkers' even though there is no way either of them have the faintest idea who he is.
But it's in keeping with Jake's usual pattern that he exaggerates an interaction to the point of parody, then the next time he refers to the same events he repeats the process, on and on until we get from 'Glinner and I exchanged tweets a few times about GamerGate', through, 'I don't want to say for sure because I'm just an innocent girl but I think Glinner was hitting on little ol' me before he became a TERF', to, 'Glinner was constantly hitting on me and I'm not saying that's why his wife left him, but I'm not not saying that either.'
Also, Jake is a greedy, grasping, consooming little bitch. It doesn't get commented on as much because all troons appear to beg for cash from the internet, but he gets a thousand dollars a month for doing absolutely nothing, and yet complains constantly about how he can't afford rent and food even though there's every indication that he doesn't pay for either of those things. It fits in with his belief that he is the king Queen of the Unseen Victims, that he's the one who's suffered the most through every single bad thing (that he's forcibly brought upon himself) and yet no one cares for poor, trans, buxom redhead Violet Cassandra Ocean. So of course he's going to pitch a bitch-fit about anyone else getting even a cent in regards to being a troon and dealing with Glinner and the TERFS - because all of that money, in Jake's mind, should go solely to him.
Jake is getting worse. But these are both very established character traits for Jake, nothing odd for him at all. He's a pathological exaggerator, narcissist, bully, clout chaser and catastrophiser who thinks he's too good to do anything he doesn't want to do and that free money should just drop in his lap. If it is those troons, then those $40 are rightfully his - don't they know he's the troon Glinner raped repeatedly at a convention several years ago, only stopping once Jake told him that he was having sex with yon woman? They should give Jake all the victimbux!
It's amazing how Jake "owns" his friends, his former friends, his rivals, and even his adversaries. Anything to do with any of these people HAS to do with Jake, because he's the only real person involved or something. It's all about him, all the time. The entire Third Reich was just a dress rehearsal for the day when the Nazis were going to go after Jake Alley. And of course, no one's suffered like Violet's suffered, and she's so brave just to keep breathing,
Worth remembering when Glinner comes up: before becoming king boy-terf, Glinner unfollowed Jake on Twitter and Jake demanded to know why like a little bitch. (This
Post from a year ago shows.)
Jake was genuinely humiliated by that, I think, in ways he can never admit to anyone, even himself. Fun fact: I went through a similar process to Glinner, though less intense, in that I knew the name SecretGamerGrrl (though Glinner hilariously seems to get this wrong whenever possible) and just kind of accepted she was some random trans person who felt the need to comment on absolutely everything in that irritating manner so many trans people have, and transplain shit she couldn't possibly have any actual first-hand knowledge of or experience with.
Then I found this thread and the photo in the OP just fucking sent me. The rest is history.
Difference is, Glinner went before an audience and told his story of how Violet single-handedly turned him into a TERF, a feat accomplished almost exclusively by that fucking beard. And that was before getting to the ubernerd-loser qualities Jake has in spades. So Jake wants to be a big wheel in the trans/gaming community. That's what Chelsea promised him, above all else (along with a comfortable salary and generous benefits package). He was supposed to be Important and Successful and finally be Influential in his Field (that field being "trans person who exists"). But he's the living, breathing stereotype of the laughable, lazy, insane, loser tranny and he fucking knows it. He's the opposite of a credit to his people. And thanks to Glinner, everyone else knows it, too.
Jake can never forgive this, but he also can't admit this because it would confirm his dox, verify his worthlessness, and absolutely destroy whatever passes for his ego. So it's the opposite, actually! Glinner luuuuuurves him. Wanted to fuck him. Was rejected by him. Now Glinner's got the sour grapes and lovely Violet needs the asspats and Patreon money because even if she wasn't too traumatized to work, that powerful, vindictive man who works in another industry in another country has guaranteed she's unemployable in this one.
What I'm saying is that Jake is so obsessed with Glinner, he thinks Glinner must reciprocate. Ditto Randi Harper, Chelsea, all the various and sundry Nazis he seems to encounter constantly, etc.
