"Pretend", a true crime podcast, did a triple feature on Pat published earlier this week. Includes interviews with Pat, Nikki and Hildy!

It's a conspiracy theory :fighter_sm:, but that don't make it not true. Pig has managed to ingratiate himself with the cat ladies, assorted degenerates, and bona-fide retards of twitter and for G-d knows what reason some of these people are in minor positions of power and influence so it makes sense
Uhm It's X now sweetie

They said we all don’t have jobs which they know is a lie, they know Dan’s info and where he works.
IMAX projection considering his biggest ballwashers are Jón Frímann, Shane Nokes, and Jackie

how humilliating that Pat uses joblessness as an insult but they're such beta side characters that they'll continue to simp for the deadbeat father

I giggled when they mentioned that "fucking idiot" youtuber, and I thought "could it be Dan, or maybe even @Turk February ", and then they played the clip and once AI Norm spoke I laughed out loud that it was Porsalin.
Relistened last night and realized they were talking about Porsalin. I didn't even consider him because of his history on the sub but guess I'm a retard for assuming Rick had lingered long enough.

Cant wait to give this cocksucker a listen once the house empties out for the day. I need undivided attention to this shitshow. I cant wait to hear him cuss out that cop, or the other highlights you guys mentioned. I do like that the podcast is called Pretend, fits with Ricks whole ethos perfectly.

He also counts the pepperoni police visit as a SWAT even though the redditors didn't call the police. Rascals just put up the ad
He also claimed that Craigslist did everything right and emailed him to verify the post but that they still put it up unverified for a split second to allow kiwis to immediately call 911 which is such an obvious lie.

20 full minutes of Pigki rambling in the first episode alone and every other sentence is a blatant misrepresentation or just plain bizarre. So much to fucking unpack here that I'm just doing a play-by-play. Probably a lotta observations made already but fuck it, it's worth exposing in detail just how much inconsistent bullshit they're spewing. It also might serve as a useful transcript for all the many deaf brotherpersons that no doubt exist amongst our highly diverse ranks.

Tape 1.
  • Pig lying about us going after Sue Lightning "just because she was trans". Said just after admitting we still hate uuhhhhffensive racist Anthony Cumia so he needs to hype up our supposed right-wing agenda.
  • Similar lie about Logan Lynn getting targeted just because he's gay, not because he was connected to Jay Mohr and couldn't handle some light ribbing.
  • He lies about us not being Norm MacDonald fans, says that was just an excuse because we're really alt-right fanatics who just love racism so much. Even given how one-sided the story has been so far, the cracks in his dumb narrative are already showing. Why would Piggy's tweet be a target if we don't give a shit about Norm, wouldn't there be far better people to fuck with if our motives were political? Stupid Rick's trying to have his cake and eat it by painting us as both chaos agents and organized political movement and it doesn't jive.
  • He's saying we don't care about comedy. We're still hilarious.
  • lol he can't mention his Twitter account without prefacing his follower count like it's something impressive. It's absolutely the one thing he cares about most in the world.
  • "MASS FALSE REPORTING" I hate this nonsense. You violated the ToS multiple times because you're an unhinged fat loon who likes to threaten and insult others. Twitter considered it valid enough to hold it up for months until you managed to muscle your way back in with legal threats.
  • His description of us changes again. We're not angry with him, we just like hurting random innocent people and he just happened to enter our sights. Doesn't exactly gel with the alt-right trolls with a specific mission either.
  • Niki says "performative cruelty", a very fat Patism. She's either a dummy who copies his 1.2 vocabulary or Rick might be writing her script for these things.
  • "In the past, sociopaths would just be ostracized and kicked out of their groups. The Internet gives them the ability to join in groups and hurt people." This is a way more apt description of the Patpack and Twitter in general than it is of us.
  • "They have no camaraderie, they eat their own." Perish the thought. Now back to Twitter to demand some liberal gets fired because he got someone's pronouns wrong.
  • "They're not friends with eachother, they don't form friendships. There is no trust, there is no loyalty. They don't even particularly like eachother." Alright, point: Patrick.
  • "People ask me: "well, what did you do to them?" NOTHING. We don't have a beef with these people other than that it gets them off" Liar pig, liar pig. I know at least 60 people who have very good reasons for hating your ass.
  • "How did you get banned again?" *squealing* "Ah..." lol even the soy host is skeptical.
  • Pig desperately trying to justify why his Twitter account is of the utmost importance to his writing career, after he dumbly admitted he spent $5000 in legal fees on what is clearly just a hobby.
  • Rick lying about the timeline of events. "They've been texting, calling, emailing for five years."
  • Niki: "They make pornography of me and send it to my family."
  • "They place ads telling people I'm looking for sex and with extreme things like "I have a rape fantasy."" No mention of the farting in vaginas, sadly.
  • Ewww Rick said "you twits" and meant it.
  • In general, Pat comes off across as such a spergy and obnoxious person in this interview. Shocking, I know. He creates strawmen third parties asking him "stupid questions" and angrily dismisses them with vulgarities and genuine bile. No wonder the host has to point out that Pat is in fact a belligerent Twitter user who'll start fights with everyone.
  • Niki arguing that changing your email adress is like changing your birth name, therefore you shouldn't do anything proactive and just whine "WHY US?" She's dumber than a box of rocks, holy shit.
  • "These people literally found my SSN number." Did we? Strange how absolutely nothing has happened in relation to that then, if we're as sociopathic as you claim. You can really fuck someone's life up if you got that number, hence why it's considered identity theft and something a victim can absolutely go to the authorities for.
  • The host gives them tips on basic cybersecurity and obviously they don't take it.
  • Niki "We're refusing these tips because things are already as bad as they can possibly get." Nigga what?
  • "They figure stuff out" Because it's all public record or info you willingly post for everyone to see, you stupid bitch. You know what would help conceal those? Those fucking tips the host gave you that you dumbly dismissed a second before.
  • "Plus we're unwilling" No, that's the entire reason.
  • "We run businesses yadda yadda, we deserve to be public" I think both of them are completely delusional when it comes to their "businesses". It's obvious zero writing or SEO optimization happens in that household but they cling to whatever vestigial prestige those nominal job titles give.
  • "Driving us off the Internet and silencing us is their goal" I thought we were psychopaths who wanted to hurt and kill people and ruin lives? Why would we let our prize pig escape before the slaughter? The real answer is that in Rick's mind, having to get off social media is tantamount to death, so that's what he accuses us of wanting when it makes zero sense.
  • "They want us to stop talking about them and they're willing to kill us to ensure that." WHICH ONE IS IT, RICK? Are we toying with you or do we fear you?
  • Host: "Yeah, you could run and disappear but that comes at a cost." Not as big as trying to stubbornly face it head on and suing dozens of strangers. The cost for that currently stands at around $50,000. A dollar for every Twitter follower Rick has.
  • Rick: "People on ona who actively harass us are limited to a handful, no more than half a dozen." Then why did you sue 60 individuals?
  • "After my Twitter was reinstated, the subreddit was nothing but threads dedicated to me."
  • "They posted stuff like my book cover and that's copyrighted material (wrong). So we issued HUNDREDS and HUNDREDS of DMCA takedown notices." Funny how actual mass false reporting is okay when Rick does it.
  • Niki: "It was the only effective way to combat what they were doing." Keep in mind that this is happened first half of 2019. The full extent of the "harassment" was Redditors shit talking them on the sub and Twitter and reporting Rick for actual violating tweets. At this point it was nothing more than a little Internet spat and Rick (and Niki, apparently) went all-in trying to get the sub shutdown completely. WHY US?
  • Host: "I've been to the various message boards and seen a ton of pictures of Patrick photoshopped into various gay pornographic images." lmao
  • "For the first time Reddit administrators changed their harassment rules specifically because of what happened to us." Yeah, because you spammed their inbox full of hundreds of fucking DMCA notices on a daily basis. DMCA notices stink because they're easily issued and there's no repercussions to filing a false one, but a website has to take every single one of them seriously or it's potentially their ass. Eventually they threw their hands up and just started mass banning people.
  • "They won Worst Subreddit two years in a row and were proud of it. They love being the worst human beings they can be." No, we love being the worst human beings according to Redditors, because that means we must be doing something right.
  • Kiwifarms discussed, horseshit suicides blamed on them as they always are.
Yeah, main takeaway is that Niki was always just as invested in #DLTIW as Pat, right from the start too as she admits culpability to the DMCA spamming all the way back in early 2019. I think most of us, myself included, were willing to give her the benefit of the doubt and assume she was kept either ignorant or subdued by Rick. It's clear now that she's just as involved as him and deserves all the shit that Rick has made come their way.

I guarantee Rick coached her like Jan and her Lawyer did to Michael on The Office in “The Deposition” “it was pattern of disrespect and sexual harassment” for Rick it was “remember child, it’s performative cruelty”

The voicemails are so obviously Pat.
I actually think that one might not be. It doesn't sound like his voice and there's none of his textbook autistic phrases. More importantly, there's no threat in it either.

Because Rick is monitoring this board, he undoubtedly knows that we call out the fake voicemails whenever he sends them to anyone documenting his story. He must've combed his phone or cyberstlaker dossier (lol) for a genuine atalker voicemail and this was the worst one he could find. Even then, the only thing the guy does is say he will never uncover us and that he should kill himself. Pretty mild stuff by the standards of reglar Internet trolling and especially for Pat's deranged narrative. I guarantee that if the voicemail is real, it was made sometime after Pat started his lolsuit and the stlaker is mocking him for it. But it's ambiguous enough that Fat thinks he can slip it in and people'll assume it's in relation to the SWATTings.

Apologies for posting so much but this is genuinely feels like Christmas. Pig and Niki refusing access to the police in part 3 at 6:58 is very damning, I can't believe they think this paints them in a favourable light?
I can't see how any objective observer can listen to these tapes and not come away with the conclusion that they're oppositional and demeaning towards everyone. Not just the cyberstlakers, but the police and they constantly come up with hypothetical comments someone might make and haughtily and crassly denigrate them. Anyone who takes a close look at Rick's case, even people who are inclined to be sympathic like Leslie, Javier and the lesbian podcaster, always comes away acknowledging in some way that Patrick himself helps escalate the situation and does himself no favors, and his response is to call them idiots who are in league with the stlakers.

Part 3 24:55 He says Torswats was under the false impression he was swatting himself because the cyberstlakers set up an account and opened a crypto wallet using his information.
We know the "setting up an account with his email" is impossible and it's suspicious as fuck that he's so adamant about pinning the swaTTings on this place, to the point where he's basically sticking up for the guy doing the fucking swatting and acknowledging that an account made in his name paid for them. A more reasonable argument by someone who genuinely wasn't involved would be that Torswats is just lying about Rick contracting him and that he has a Gemini account he uses for other shit, but Pat is very insistent that 1. he never made a Gemini account and 2. that the community he happens to owe $50,000 to were the ones responsible and framed him.

I was actually getting some doubts about the self-swatting hypothesis but perpetual rakestepper Rick manages to assuage them in an instant with this.

I’m glad we now finally have confirmation that Niki is a big piece of shit just like Pat. Pat once bragged about Niki being the type of person to go to a bar and talk shit about all the people there like that’s something to be proud of. You know she treats service workers like shit and is always complaining that everyone is a “fucking idiot” like Shane did.

They really are two awful people and never getting divorced, she prob thinks she’s “fighting evil” and painting us as “psycho alt / far right Nazi white supremacists”
