He knew I thought it was him. All along. We all did. Every one of us attached to that account. I mean, come on, ALL of his messages seemed clear enough. Regardless, after a while I started suspecting ALL he wanted from me (us) was to praise him. And praise him. And advise him as he talked about his troubles. He wanted to bitch about his family and friends, but make it seem justified – you know, like it was coming from an objective 3rd party. All the while deflecting all of the blame, like only a narcissist could. In everything he was the hero and put upon by everyone else. I’m telling you – the DMing… was not even a little bit fun. This fella deflected enjoyment as well. DMing with this guy as he constantly complimented himself, pontificating endlessly about how deep a thinker he is, really started feeling like a giant energy suck. Like I was speaking with a vampire who fed exclusively off other people’s goodwill and positive intentions. And oh my god! I was talking to (or so I believed 100%) the guy I based several stories around. So, of course, I only had goodwill and positive intentions when it came to him. I mean... there was definitely something about him… that felt so compelling. At first. But as we talked… as I watched what he was posting on his faked 'managed fan account', as I watched him lure and drag other broken women along this pity-strewn road - I started to suspect his humanity. I even asked what had happened to the man’s soul – because he was so self-centered, selfish, and vain. Of course he didn’t answer me. Instead, the DMing stopped for a few weeks. But then he came back, just like he always did – in that dragging, pathetic kinda way, that makes you feel like he just can’t feel good unless someone is praising him. He certainly didn’t try to reciprocate any of the kindness I had shown him - in any way. He couldn’t even say ‘thank you’ after I made him a ton of memes. Though he did immediately tweet about the importance of being thankful. Meaning… how important it is to show our ‘betters’ our gratitude for their existence. I mean, how else could I have taken it when he’d brushed me off just moments before, despite my hours of effort? MY GOD, DOES THIS BOY LOVE ADMIRATION. I thought. Repeatedly – as I watched the man seek praise in every encounter he had. Look, from what he told me about his family, especially his mother – I get it. But the way he uses those hurts against others – I just couldn’t get behind. For months I debated with myself over the merits of wasting any more of my precious time and energy on someone so broken, so shallow, so vain, and narcissistic. I mean sure, I’d written a few stories using him to help me flesh out some rather hinky characters, however, to waste any more of my time on SOMEONE WHO REFUSED TO SEE ANYONE ELSE’S WORTH seemed plain stupid to me. But I kept watching and hoping the ‘signs’ would prove he could improve. Let’s face it - that account loves posting cryptic signs – to keep all of us poorly socialized women, men, and transgendered folks on the hook. But outwardly, on the streets, his actions matched the same shallow, clout-hungry, energy vampire of his DM personality. So, the more I watched – the more certain I became it really was him. He never tweeted during activities he was present at. Events he attended - tweeted directly to the account I was DMing with. Even his then-current friends and then-current coworkers acknowledge this account - that was flirting with me – and only this account. (Hint: NONE of his new friends or his new coworkers act like it even exists. Funny? Ain't it?) Plus… it was followed by his then-current TV show 'Raised by Wolves'. I mean… let’s face it – THOSE WERE ALL BIG SIGNS. So too was the fact his former co-workers, his Lockington friends, and his Echuca neighbors would not acknowledge that account for anything – in fact, they treated it like the plague – giving it an extremely wide berth - at all costs. ALL OF THEM. I mean… that seemed correct about him too – from what I’d learned in DMing with that account. By every means necessary I proved (to myself at least) the twitter account I had been speaking to for 2 years was really him – and boy, by then all I could think was this guy is both extremely stupid AND viciously cruel. Of course, the script pages he DMed me, along with other very private info he shared about his family and homelife could only have come from someone super close to him. So, for me, at least, it was him… and he, for all intents and purposes, seemed really rather evil. Yet despite this account seeming to be nothing more than a desperate man begging for strange and unusual attention – nobody seemed to be too bothered about it. Nor did they seem the least bit bothered by the plethora of complaints about other similar accounts preying upon his fans. *Accounts he has supported all along by feeding information to unverified sources. However, they (the folks who own heavy investments in his 'work') did seem to care about his crazy narcissistic deflections where he often confessed in interviews; ‘I know people who… - fill in the blank with words like “orgies”, “whores”, and “partner swapping”. At least they cared enough to cut those comments out or to disappear the interview all together. Just like they buried articles linking him with a porn star, as well as ads from magazines that read like adverts – for him – rather than the clothes he was dressed in. In a DM he told me during the South African Comic Con – "he loves South Africa more than he loves Thailand". Bangkok sex workers instantly sprang to mind. Because he just gives off that vibe, you know? Still… I shrugged it off. Why? Why? Why when I knew better, when I’d been manipulated and gaslit and treated like a human battery for narcissists before, would I allow some drunk I didn’t even know, someone who had never in his life done anything remotely noble – to fuck with me in the brain like this? I finally realized I couldn’t answer that question sufficiently. So, I blocked his ass. No more DMing about tantric sex or me dressing up in a nun’s habit with a man who couldn’t even grow up enough to be honest with himself, let alone his fans. No more letting him act like my better, just because he has sold parts of his soul he’ll never recover. And that’s when he got really really mean. This man… who more than anything yearns for unearned esteem from everyone he meets. So, he sent his flying monkeys after me. And one of them got me fired. (Or… perhaps it was him who got me fired… I mean, we all know he likes to fake his social media status.) Despite the years I spent trying to be nice to this fella, he took it upon himself to seek revenge. Despite trying to inspire him to see the world through his heart – instead of his dick – he had zero compunctions about acting horribly to me and the rest of his fans. What a phenomenal waste of time. PSA: Despite creating several of their own beer commercials, Travis Fimmel, Xavier Campbell, and Andy Allen (his business partners) have taken ZERO steps to warn people, or to protect them from the predatory behavior of the many social media accounts linked to Mr. Fimmel. X (Twitter) Accounts run or supported by Fimmel, Campbell, and Allen include: @_Travla, @RangiFim, @TravisFimmel, @TFScamAlerts, @TFScamAlerts1, @Travis_Fimmel, @TeamTravis, and the one I DM'd with personally for a couple of years: @Travis_F_Tweets - which has been operational for over a dozen years, and even claimed for a very long time to be: "The Managed Account for Travis Fimmel Fans". This in no way is a comprehensive list of all the Twitter accounts linked to this group of people. It also does NOT include the dozens of stalker accounts I strongly suspect are associated with Fimmel and/or his friends. Please note: I am not on other social media platforms. However, Mr. Fimmel, Travla - his beer brand, and ALL of his Echuca buddies are. The expertise this group of men possess - regarding the running of multiple social media accounts - seems quite evident by their long-standing activities. The fact none of them have taken responsibility for the predation of Frimmel's fans - is totally unacceptable - and pretty unbelievable - when you think about it. Until you figure out what this group is hiding... *Ever notice how he has to update fans on his locations everywhere he goes? (wink wink) **If you're paying close attention you'll notice the complicit bahvior on the part of Google, Twitter, Facebook, and instagram - done in order to protect media investments (such as actors who behave terribly). Their agenda is not to preserve the actor's career - but rather to protect those who have invested in them (HBO, NBC, Netflix, etc.) The model of Hollywood (and the media in general) is to protect criminals at all costs. ***If you're paying extra close attention - you'll also notice -- these times --- they be a changin'.
