I've also fallen for and followed a fake account before. It was some neckbeard pretending to be a female disabled doctor. Apparently, he actually was some kind of advocate for the disabled, possibly started with the self-justification to "help".
Oh wow, apparently it was a bigger deal than I thought back then: https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jule_Stinkesocke
Is the one about Kirk unbelievable? Some parts, yes, such as the immediate registration as Republican (not shown in screenshots), but in general, there are favorable non-Republican responses, such as "Shoe on Head". I'm also upset about quotes out of context, that part seems to be real, and so it builds a bridge from reality to fiction. It's just that I wouldn't turn full MAGA because Stephen King smeared a conservative.
Stink e sock e? And the name was fake?
Before I sarcastically say I'm shocked I should look up if it's a real surname.... No dice. Gamers and a furaffinity account appears to be referencing the person, and there's a children's book that includes the word in the title.
So without further ado, I'M SHOCKED! SHOCKED I SAY!!!!
It was a shock, and my faith in the internet will be lost entirely if it turns out that your name is not actually Killgrind.
(Her supposed real name was Julia ~~Goethe~~ Gothe, in case anyone wants to know. Former Twitter handle @JuleStinkesocke.)
Well I did not look up enough! That was the real fake part of the fake whole.
