11. Addition: Setting the record straight about stan projections
- Fanbase inserting „sob story“ and „idolization“ narratives in order to absolve Karl from accountability, inject empathy into otherwise sociopathic behavior or parasocially „feeling and thinking“ on behalf of him ((Screenshots (T) Examples: Claiming for months Karl has an „eating disorder“, because „he gets bullied by haters“ =/= him clarifying multiple times he occasionally forgets/delays a meal due to ADHD completely unrelated.
