@eigenkirkbot has an Oscilating Disorganized attachment is my guess.Disorganized attachment is only five percent of the general population, but among domestic abusers, people who engage in reactive violence, and substance users, particularly multiple substances and such people who wind up in prison, its around or over 50 percent.Oscilating Disorganized attachment is a conflict between desiring space, and desiring connection, which creates inner tension, which manifests as conflict seeking.When people feel threatened, this can provoke aggression. When people 100 percent desire space, and 100 percent desire connection, and their own desire also makes them feel threatened, they seek out those desires in an aggressive way.What can cause this is?When you're growing up, if your source of safety is also your source of dangerWhen people around you are unpredictableAnd when you put in effort to accomplish goals and you make no progress and it seems disproportionate to the amount of effort you put in.This makes it so that space and connection are simultaneously necessary and dangerous, and it makes it so there is no consistent strategy to succeed or survive, so you try many different strategies in aggressive unpredictable ways, aggressive like a person ripping off a bandaid, unpredictable like a person desperately trying anything.Maoist landlord one minute pretends to be a man interested in social justice who is offended by flesh simulators "fascist" views, the next minute hes calling him gay over any over again and is an accomplice to trying to take his guns away, and the next minute hes commenting on how pretty flesh simulators eyes are in his "documentary". Because in his upbringing, conflict and chaos were normal, a sustained conflict with flesh simulator is familiar and comfortable to him, it's a car that he knows how to drive. Securely attached connection and space is unfamiliar to him, and makes him uncomfortable as he assumes that conflict is out of sight and around the corner. Conflict that he is partaking in, is conflict he can see and deal with, like a predator out of sight versus a predator you have your eye on. If you can see a predator, then it isn't sneaking up on you.The sick part of this, on an unconscious level,
@eigenkirkbot probably feels something like friendship or affection towards
@fleshsimulator , friendships centered around conflict in some way is basically the only friendship that he can tolerate. Either both of you are fighting the same thing ("fascists"), or both of you are fighting each other
