    Being kicked from platforms was for this particular specimen exactly the sort of vindication this user was searching for, by banning him they had acknowledged him and given him content.

          Maybe so, but it sounds like it was on increasingly obscure platforms. Even if he has an army of degenerate worshippers, he surely gets less media exposure, his financial lifeblood, on platforms nobody’s heard of, and one would think his viewership would decline over time even without getting locked away for the safety of basically everyone around him.
