Problem with the MCU is that it's creatively bankrupt and not wondrous. It's lazy, formulaic, and rarely if ever feel like there's any stakes at all. Too much constant winking and nudging at the camera to make sure audiences know "it's all just one big joke"!!!!1 That's because the people who make the MCU are ashamed of comics. If they weren't, they would make earnest and unironic adaptations of their Z-list characters. Now that the actual A-listers, Fantastic Four and X-Men and Spider-Man, have been sleazily wrested away from their rightful owners due to various and sundry acts of corporate espionage and treachery by Disney, maybe the MCU won't be so uncomfortable making straightforward superhero movies that real comic fans truly want to see, instead of cringe trash catering to posers like WeirdRaptor, who's never read a comic book in his life. Innit?

It does make you wonder. But he joined ages ago and doesn't appear to be active enough for it to be a sock account for one of those board defenders. Maybe he's decided somebody needs to fight the good fight? it's neither of them. But the guy was a confirmed resident of raptor's darknet. So: 1. Most Plausibly: Considering the sect-like echo chamber the darkness is, we may deal with a fugitive who sports acute symptoms of brainwashing (including raptor-sam lingo), PTSD and Stockholm syndrome. 2. Its a deliberate troll attack conducted from the darknet; their last desperate stand. 3. A Dance off stratagem to distract from the real raptor/sam socks. 4. Raptor and Sam have taken over the account of the poor guy and steer him like a puppet in "Get Out" or "Being John Malkowich" to fight the good raptor fight.
