"Lloyd Evans is like herpes"
More like a parasite.
There's currently a controversy at the moment regarding someone called Eliza Bleu, she alleges she was trafficked, but her back story does not add up. This controversy has so many similarities to how Lloyd operates too.
These people are parasites and will cling to anyone who shows the slightest interest, they will search for people who be suckered into listening and prey on them. Parasites need hosts to survive. These hosts are usually empathetic people because they are easier to put under the parasite's spell.
Unfortunately, we have to realize that the world is not full of good people who would never think of hurting another human being, in fact, those who want to see a divide in the world are grooming people like Lloyd. Lloyd would gladly put that brown shirt on.
Sometimes we have to step into the uncomfortable shoes of a psychopath to understand what these people are capable of. To a psychopath, those uncomfortable shoes are the best, most comfortable shoes they have ever worn.
