    The reason he did it (besides being off his rocker on K) was that he expected the crowd to reciprocate. The crowd cheered, but he hoped they would return the salute. It was a litmus test of how far they’d gotten in terms of total mental control of their drones.

      I don’t think he thought that far ahead. I think he likes being the edgiest of edgy boys. He’s also a gigantic loser, a living repudiation of the idea of a meritocracy, and a Nazi. BUT he is also the guy who unironically called himself “Dark, gothic MAGA” and did stupid little jumps to try and do some pseudo ymca bullshit by making an X with his body.

      Dudes a cringe lord like before anything else, imo.
