Anyone remember Prioryman?

Well, Chris "Prioryman" Owen, one of WP's most successful long-term trolls in the late 2000s, a former admin who resigned in disgrace, is now passing himself off on X-twitter as an "expert" on the Ukraine war. This made the front page of Reddit today.

And the Reddit account that posted it just HAS to be Chris Owen. He rants in an identical manner to the squabbles surrounding ChrisO's and Prioryman's legendary editwars over Scientology and military history. Christ what an asshole. A very intelligent and well-educated asshole, but still....

Owen even authored a "book"(?) about L. Ron Hubbard called "Ron the "War Hero"" or something. I think it was "self-published". Never seen a print copy. It ended up posted on Dave Touretsky's website--he's a fellow Scientology critic.

The book wiki has a massive article about Owen's Wikipedia history. Too much to post here. He was dragged or dragged others to arbitration many times. The current crop of admins and arbitrators probably have no idea who Owen is, and that he's still operating his main Prioryman account, plus a number of sockpuppets that support each other....he socks, and certain people protect him. He cut back greatly in 2018 but is still in there pissing around with whatever attracts his ADHD interests.
