He can't keep a straight story for whatever reason - maybe it's because he lies so much
Very typical behaviour of an elder’s son, especially when it’s a veteran elder who has some sway. Elder’s sons often commit a tonne of worldly offences that would get grannies disfellowshipped without a second thought. They are notorious for turning on the tears when they fuck up, like Lloyd tried and failed to do during the livestream. Lloyd displays these behaviours so often it is not difficult to understand that his dad ran a lot of interference for him.
Lloyd’s never been been “worldly” until he got whoever is pathetic enough to associate with him in Zagreb. He moved from the JWs right into the exJW world and he was highly touted in both groups.
Now that he’s out of that marriage, he’s been desperately trying to create a new life before it is too late (which it kinda already is). His options are limited at 44, and his looks limit him even more. This is why he wears crazy Jesse Pinkman clothing, excess jewelry and that ridiculous dye job. It distracts from the way he really looks.
And that nose! I can’t see how anyone could kiss that without thinking they got mouth raped by a Muppet.
His physical rebranding is all part of the lie. I would have loved to have been a fly on the wall when those friends of his gave him feedback on the Jake video as he related. Where to even start? So he retreats to the lie he keeps repeating ad nauseam: Jake lies within the first 20 minutes. He’s playing stupid like he doesn’t understand sarcasm. Jake made a joke, but Lloyd keeps pointing to it like it validates him throughout the entire video.
It doesn’t. That video absolutely slaughtered him and it’s noteworthy that it still resonates with people over a year after it was made and with people already inclined to believe Lloyd’s side.
His children are going to find out the hard way to never believe a word out of their father’s mouth.
