The issue was him misrepresenting his fBSinterest in Mormonism to the missionaries, but he reframes it as: “if you think reasons for believing the LDS faith should be kept secret and never spoken about publicly unless it’s through the filter of the church, that’s very telling”. Yeah, nice try Lloyd. Nobody said that. They are objecting to you being a slimeball.
Eww he's so infuriating. He uses stock insults in the same way he claims the cultists he denigrates do. In this case it's the "you are silencing criticism of the church!!" when the issue was entirely different and focused on his treatment of the women.
"I always leave my audience to draw their own conclusions" yeah.... absolute cobblers! At least stand behind what you do and don't pretend to be a neutral observer!!🙄

I think he is "gaslighting".
From insider .com
"What is an example of gaslighting? Gaslighting happens when an abuser tries to control a victim by twisting their sense of reality. An example of gaslighting would be a partner doing something abusive and then denying it happened. Gaslighters may also convince their victims that they're mentally unfit or too sensitive.Jul 23, 2021"

In a twitter post from February 2, 2022, Evans wrote, “...I’ve never been to Asia so Thailand seems like an interesting place to start...”.

I’d mistakenly thought that Evans’ had been going for years to Thailand for immoral purposes.

Mikejw: How can he sweep these lawsuits under the rug?
Technically, by ignoring them. Or at least, no longer mentioning them. It's a criminal suit filed in Croatia, which will probably be dismissed. I suppose the court could convict in absentia, but I bet that would require at least some extra paper work and effort which would be a waste of time. Dismissing it is the sensible thing to do. If he understands this, he may prefer to let the matter play out as slowly and quietly as possible.
In a practical sense, he won't be able to sweep them under the rug. Either there will be a judgment --in which case he'll claim vindication-- or he will proceed with the civil suits and people will want to know what happened to the criminal suit. If he decides that he wants it to go away, he could just not file the civil suits. But that would lead to such a firestorm of mockery that I don't think it's an option for him.
Then again, there is no path that does not end with his targets making fun of him. His own pride led him to build a trap for himself.
