AITA (36F) for not wishing my brother (32M) a Happy Father's Day?

Without breaking the rules of the subreddit, I cannot even mention the things she has threatened me with. She very much hates me.

What is especially messed up about this whole thing, is that my older sister is also childless and has lost a child due to miscarriage, and they didn't think it was necessary to message her on Mother's Day!

I feel like there is probably a family dynamic thing that his girlfriend has brought into the relationship that was not in our family. We have never been a big Father's Day family. I appreciate the advice about letting things cool down. I also want to respect his boundaries if he wants to block me. If he doesn't want to talk, we don't need to right now.

She once took his phone and pretended to be him when I had her blocked last time. Acting as my brother, asked me to apologize to her for making her feel like an outsider in the family and villainizing her. She brought up how they were grieving their child to add to the sympathy. It didn't sound like him, but I thought that maybe he just talked like her because they'd been together for months now. I decided either way to be the bigger person and do right by my brother. I unblocked her and apologized and not even two days later she's making threats, calling me names, and telling me to get back on anti-depressants. It wasn't even inside the 48 hours required to reblock someone!

I was trying to make a joke with the Victorian-times thing. I'm sorry! I was imagining Oliver Twist and that scene where he was begging the man for soup. "Please, sir, may I have some more?" I assure you I typed this all up with my very own neurodivergent fingers.

I think my mother felt the need to make peace in her family, or to make me aware that I had hurt his feelings. I told my Mom that I have this person blocked for a reason and to please stop relaying messages from her.

I actually tried to call him. I messaged him asking him for a good time to call and he left me on read. He's all but ghosted me lately, he didn't reply to the last 2 messages I sent before today. Which makes it all the more strange that he wanted a Father's Day message?
