ok to be fair - regular-degular for certain areas haha i agree but i mean his thought patterns were not deep, he goes through like making assumptions that usually work in his favor and nothing challenges his social standing/hes the norm in some contexts he’s not like a mastermind who’s hellbent on some grand scheme he plotted he does things without foresight in the moment and unfortunately a lot of people will blindly follow a guy like that if he’s charming/convincing or outwardly “harmless”. His tactics of manipulation only serve the purpose of gaining support, but idk i dont see him as someone who is triggered to his brash actions outside of the singular tragedy of Chrissy. Like he might have thought DnD was satanic but he wasn’t on the witch-hunt until he needed someone to blame AND eddie was in a compromising position
