When speaking in ones second language, a measure of humility is needed. Despite great effort, there will be small mistakes. He may be unwilling to expose himself to criticism. (From experience I will say that the criticism on ones second language isn't fun.)

The internet is now ablaze with videos and articles explaining "narcissism". We realize that, as human-beings, we cannot read other peoples' hearts. Some narcissists, who now seem incorrigible, may actually someday change from being narcissists to being decent human beings. But this may take them a thousand years. For now, within our current life-expectancy, we just can't afford to "wait around", PINNING OUR HOPES on them making this change-for-the-better sooner rather than later. For now, we must recognize a narcissist whenever we encounter one, and take the necessary precautions to avoid being harmed by him.
Here's a short quote from a good article:
https://psychcentral.com/blog/psychology-self/2020/05/narcissists-generosity#1
"6. Professional Power over Others
Narcissists seek positions where they have power over people in need. Thats why you can find many of them in fields like teaching, self-help, religion, politics, law, mental health, medical care, and so on. They prey on people who are in need. They abuse and perpetuate systemic and institutional issues to do that, too.

By being in a position of authority, legitimately or not, they can be perceived as moral, noble, caring, giving, competent and feel better than others. But it doesnt matter to them that they hurt other people, because, after all, others are just objects to serve their needs."

As for Lloyd's "Tight Pants zoom call", he has obviously opted to revert to using the Juilian calendar rather than the Gregorian calendar.

For our next project, which one of us will pay the $50 Patreon fee to attend, as a Trojan Horse, Lloyd's next elite meeting? Whoever does this can come back here and provide the rest of us with many pages of hysterically funny "comic relief".

How long before he pays "them" to hang out with him? No,...I guess not.

I’m trying to figure out who would want to hang out with him. I’m assuming that the $50 level is supposed to give those subscribers some kind of personal access to him. It becomes laughable. They arrive at their cherished meeting with him and a few other “elite” supporters, and then... what do they talk about? Ah... well, there’s the news from Norway. Yep. Heard that one. And, there’s the big shake up over JW’s not wanting to attend meeting “in person” at the Kingdom Halls. Yeah. Heard that one. Okay, well,... come here Jessica. Say “hello” to everyone. “Hello”. Well, nice to see you all. Have a nice day.
