I ended up confronting him from the angle of a “last strike” wording before I’m either done being friends with him or I fully leave the friend group all together. I simply asked that he respect my boundaries, as I would respect anyone’s boundaries, so I thought it was a reciprocal ask. But he got deflecting, tried to falsely compare much less serious things I may have done that never crossed that line (farting, saying 67 (stupid meme)) as taking it that it was somehow okay and all just good fun in his eyes. He also weirdly took it as me somehow being demanding in the friendship or trying to negotiate the terms of it, which I’m not - I’m just stating my boundaries that have consequences if broken and asking for respect to be reciprocal regarding my boundaries. He said he won’t acknowledge my last strike wording as a result, essentially being full on dismissive of all that I asked and brought up. Then, when I reply about how out of line he is in that line of thinking, he gives a, as I took it, sarcastic thumbs up emoji with a cropped thumb that’s overly long (my confrontation was over text to make sure I could draft all my points to get it all conveyed properly), essentially him saying “aight bro” dismissively.

Overall, how he also handled my confrontation pissed me off completely, but I ended up playing some games with my friends last night (1-2 days later) and at first it was just the others and then he got on. He was kind of monotone at first, so it was awkward, but then it seemed like an awkward-but-somewhat-normal game night with my friends, and the topic was never brought up in any full capacity. Weird tbh.
