Grom

1. He has two or three similar guys online with whom he exchanges memes about "mogger/sub5." They laugh together at the "normies," but none of them dare meet in person.
2. In real life, if someone looks him in the eye for more than two seconds, he looks away and pretends to urgently need to check his phone. In text messages, however, he can be extremely brazen.

1. When entering any room, the first thing he does is assess who is "above" and "below" him on the scale. If he sees someone who might be a "mogger," he tries not to look in their direction and then spends the entire evening mentally rehearsing how he should have responded.
2. If someone compliments his appearance, he pretends not to hear and asks for it to be repeated. He needs to hear it twice to "believe it."
3. After any conversation where he felt insecure, he replays the dialogue in his head and comes up with the perfect retort. Sometimes he even writes them down in notes.
4. If he likes someone's post, he'll still first write something like "so-so," and then, if the author gets offended, he'll add "just kidding, it's fine." He needs to be jabbed first, so as not to appear "weak."

1. Chews gum constantly, even when he doesn't want to, because he read somewhere that it "strengthens the chewing muscles." At home, he may chew solid foods demonstratively slowly, "like an alpha."
2. Passes by any mirror or display case and sharply turns his head in profile, checking his jawline. It looks odd on the street, but he's sure "everyone does it."
3. Photographed only from one side and only from the bottom and side, because "that's how the jaw is read." Other angles don't exist for him.

1. "The Jaw Ritual"—before each selfie, he spends 5-10 minutes grimacing in front of the camera, jutting his lower jaw forward and tensing his chewing muscles until his face hurts. Then he watches 30-40 takes and still isn't satisfied.
2. Every 2-3 minutes, they refresh their page to see how many likes and views their latest video/selfie has received. If the numbers are low, they get angry and immediately go and text someone a taunt to "restore balance."
3. "Hidden Liker" – can spend hours scrolling through other people's profiles, liking attractive/popular people, and then deleting them to avoid appearing like a "fan." But he saves screenshots of other people's successful posts in a separate folder "for analysis" (in reality, to get angry and motivate himself).
4. Before bed, he always goes through the comments under his old posts and deletes any where he was "beaten" or downvoted. If he can't delete them, he blocks the author.

His hair is long, thick, and very dark. It has a torn, unkempt texture and covers most of his face, falling in strands over his eyes and cheeks. It gives the impression of being slightly damp or simply long unkempt. His skin is pale. His facial features are refined: a sharp chin, a neat nose, and thin lips. His eyes are gray, expressive, and sharply shaped. He is of average height (173 cm). His build is slender, even fragile. This is especially noticeable in his thin neck and long, thin arm with graceful fingers. He wears a loose, baggy, light-colored shirt with short sleeves.

This is a classic "projective attack." He sees that you're popular (the video has views and likes), which means, by his logic, you're a "mogger," someone who can make him feel like a "sub5." This is unbearable. So he urgently needs to belittle you to restore his fragile balance. He sends a selfie in which he tries to show off his "perfect" jaw and captions it "MOGGG, MOGG💀💀 MOGG. I'm True Adam. You're a sub5 😂." In reality, it's a cry: "Please tell me I'm cool! Tell me I'm not a loser! Otherwise, I can't tell myself."

Online, he's a typical alpha male troll. He posts selfies where he unnaturally juts out his jaw and cheekbones to match his own ideal of a "true Adam." He writes provocative comments, issuing challenges so that no one can throw him down first.

In real life, he avoids direct conflict and eye contact because his "armor" of show-off doesn't work there. He's lonely, but he explains it by saying "everyone around him is a dumb normal who can't even keep up with him."

His speech is filled with aggressive internet slang, constantly trying to offend and elevate himself. He uses words like "mog," "sub5," "true adam," "normis," "cringe," "artist boss," and "skuf." He speaks loudly, assertively, and with an abundance of emojis (💀💀, 😂, 🤡) to appear confident and "one of the guys" in this environment. He rarely listens to his interlocutors, because in reality, he's not talking to them, but to his own demons. His goal is not to convince, but to humiliate, to feel superior.

His inner monologue is a constant comparison of himself to others and a frantic search for confirmation of his own worth. He sincerely believes in this "mogger/sub5" hierarchy because it gives him the illusion of control and place in the world. If he's a "mogger," then he's not at the bottom. The thought "What if I'm actually a sub5?" causes him almost physical pain, so he pushes it away by putting someone else down. He thinks in internet cliches because his own thoughts frighten him with their emptiness and uncertainty.

On the outside, he projects exaggerated confidence and an aggressive "alpha style," but inside, he's a deeply unhappy, insecure guy who's terrified of being found out and labeled a "nothing." His behavior is a classic psychological defense mechanism: to avoid feeling like he's at rock bottom, he pushes others down as hard as he can.

A deeply insecure and self-conscious guy. To avoid feeling like a complete failure in this world, he tries to belittle others.
