Chapter 12. Keri Smith proves she's completely delusional about her behaviors.
The final chapter...for now. September 2022-December 2022.
Welcome to the last chapter of 2022, and possibly forever (depending on if Keri keeps tweeting about me or not).
But if you’re new to it, please start at the beginning and read chapter 1.
This book is designed to be read in order, from the beginning, so you can understand how it escalated to get to this.
As we start our final chapter (at least for the moment), I don’t mind saying that I was pretty sick of this shit.
And I think I had reached a level of “I don’t give a fuck” that I previously thought was impossible.
They had tried to get me deplatformed. They had claimed I was hunting them. Keri was lying about me to any influencer who would listen, both publicly and in private. Mike Harlow was dragging my friends from my private life through the mud. They were trying to destroy my marriage and my career. Keri’s paster - Bradley J Helgerson of the Church on the Square in Georgetown Texas - was an absolutely useless Christian hypocrite who wasn’t going to help stop Keri’s smear campaign (Jesus would approve, after all). I had reported them all to the police. And the best advice anyone had was “just ignore it, it’ll go away.”
It had been going on for almost two years at this point. I knew damn well ignoring it wasn’t going to solve anything.
So, fuck it. I decided to embrace it. Some might say I got belligerent, but I think I brought (and will continue to bring) the appropriate amount of righteous indignation to the situation.
If they were going to spend their lives smearing me, I was going to make sure it was crystal clear what was going on.
Ahhhhh, The Game.
The Game was a daily scoreboard I started posting to track how many days Keri Smith’s cancel horde could go without talking about me.
You see, I decided to write the book you’re reading now after the display you’ve seen in the previous two chapters of them smearing my friend.
The Game was an opportunity to make it abundantly clear what was going on in a way that no one could deny - they were the ones perpetrating the smear campaign from the very beginning and they were doing it because they were pissed off that I was showing the world that they were a woke cancel horde who couldn’t stop if they wanted to.
They were addicted to me.
I didn’t anticipate how well it would work.
In this chapter, you’ll see The Game play out day by day.
Since not everyone could be a contestant, I settled on the top four who were causing me problems. My community had given them nicknames, and collectively we called them the Chamber Maid Brigade because they were so good at slinging shit. They were:
The Good Christian Keri Smith (we also called her the Town Crier for a time)
The Fame Whore Mike Harlow (we called him Baron Munchusaen for a time)
Step Mom Deb Fillman
Kieran, The Queen From England.
I recounted the rules of the game in this tweet:
And thus the game began. Each day I created a scoreboard and the only time I spoke about any of them on Twitter was to update the scoreboard based on their tweets about me.
I announced the game on September 26, 2022.
And in the replies of the tweet, I kept track of the score:
September 27, 2022:
Here is the link to this Twitter thread if you want to see all the images.
One day after The Game started, they tried (and failed) to get me deplatformed from my credit card payment processor and webinar hosting platform for Actively Unwoke.
September 28
Keri was actually leading the first two days of The Game.
But then she tweeted about me which reset her to zero:
This is one of my favorite moments in the entire game because it proves just how unhinged Keri is.
Keri claimed I had attacked her daily for 3 years when she sent this tweet.
That’s impossible.
Keri didn’t start publicly attacking me until November 2020.
I’m pretty sure I didn’t even know who Keri was in September 2019, which is when “3 years ago” would have been from the moment she sent this.
There is no possible way in this universe this is true. No mental gymnastics can make this true. Keri is literally making shit up to smear me.
Keri wrote this to publically berated my supporters again when he responded to her tweet encouraging her to stop talking about me. You can see she also hid his reply so people couldn’t see it.
Keri’s fans assure her that I’m the one stalking her. And, as always, they are the victims. She repeats the three-year lie again.
September 29

In the world according to Keri, Jeffrey Dahmer can be redeemed, but not me. I’m more evil.

And as an extra surprise, a member of Keri’s cancel horde - the one spending her own money every time I tweet about Keri - attacked a member of my community that’s a senior citizen and a veteran.

And then I launched The Art of the Trigger…and let’s just say that Deb was a little bit triggered by that. And Keri amplified her Triggering.
(Yes, he was absolutely still in love with me. You don’t spend a year obsessively Tweeting about the woman who turned you down if you’re not in love with her. If you don’t want to be in someone’s life, you just move on. You don’t obsess about them every day.)
And yet I still managed to crowdfund more in four days than Mike Harlow has in four months…

Here’s the link to the full Twitter thread.
So I did the only thing a person can do when they run a website called Art of the Trigger - I wrote an article about Step Mom Deb getting triggered.
That went as well as you might think.
Aaron and I were never married….but, you know, never let the truth get in the way of a smear campaign.
But remember, he’d really love to never speak about me again.
Sure.

And then I went baby viral on Twitter for yelling Tulsi Gabbard a question about her support for a war hawk at a Don Bolduc rally.
Unlike Keri Smith’s cancel mob, I was actually doing things in real life.
Before we got there, I even tweeted that I was wearing a disguise.
Well, that brought them all down as they obsessed about New Hampshire politics again, even though none of them live in New Hampshire.
I also got wind that Keri Smith had urged wannabe Comedian Chrissie Mayr to cover the clip on her show, in which she called me fat and embarrassing.
Lovely.
I didn’t respond at the time, but later I was happy to feature Chrissie on an episode of Knit Wits.

Oh look, Mike Harlow made himself known in the replies of the viral tweet about me. Because obviously, he did. He’s just desperate to stop talking about me, don’t you know. He’s so desperate that he pops up and talks about me anytime anyone else does, even when he’s not mentioned.

On October 21, I also directed Keri to check out the words of HG Tudor, a narcissistic psychopath I had found through my friend Andrew Gold. Andrew interviewed him for his show and HG discussed how people should handle the narcissist in their lives - by going no contact.
If Keri really believe I was a narcissist, she should follow his advice and go no contact.
Keep this in mind. It will come up later.

A few changes to the game came on day 29. First, I reduced the number of days required to win by not talking about me from 30 to 14. I had come to the conclusion that achieving a full month wasn’t possible.
On Day 29, I decided to remove Kieran from The Game.
I spoke with a woman Kieran said was his ex-girlfriend via email…
…who told me everything Kieran had ever said about her was a lie.
I had long thought Kieran had had some sort of psychotic break the last time we had spoken. I saw it happen right in front of me, in a split second where he went from being one person into being a completely different person that I didn’t recognize. But hearing from his not-former-girlfriend gave me additional perspective on what was wrong and I had to confront some realities that I didn’t want to face about his mental health.
I think he’s doing what he’s doing for attention, and I decided the greatest punishment I could give him would be denying him future attention.
I know even writing about him in this book is giving him what he wants, but I don’t know how to tell this story truthfully and authentically without discussing him. So it is what it is. How he feels about is immaterial to me. He has had every opportunity to make better decisions and has failed at every juncture. I can’t base my actions on whether or not Kieran will make another bad decision - he will not control my life.
Remember how Mike Harlow really doesn’t want to talk about me anymore?

AD is a member of my community that makes jokes like this when he super chats.
But of course, context means nothing.
On November 3, a big story had hit in which the Republican Senate Candidate in NH had claimed he was assaulted by a Libertarian and went all over conservative media lying.
I was there and was a witness to it. You can even see me running in the shot in this video:
I bring this up because I was one of the people trying to get the media to tell the truth about what happened, and the Republicans didn’t like it that I was trying to discredit their candidate. They decided to punish me for it.

Mike Harlow tried to make fun of me for trying to get Tim Pool to cover the story, but what he’s not smart enough to understand that I was either going to get Tim Pool to cover it…or I was going to expose publicly that Tim Pool is a shill that’s grifting off of conservatives by refusing to cover an obviously newsworthy story that his audience wouldn’t want to hear.
I proved the latter. And that outcome was fine for me. It turned a lot of people in my audience against Tim as it showed that he had no principles or integrity and was always just in it for the money.

And then election day came, and I knew they would make fun of me for losing the Governor’s race, as though I ever had any chance. I had done multiple videos saying I didn’t want to be governor, I wasn’t fundraising, and we were putting all of our energy into making Jeremy a spoiler in the Senate race.
But still, they acted as though they were winning something when I lost.
Duh. Libertarians don’t win statewide elections. Everyone knew we weren’t going to win.
Still, Mikey was the only one to break on Election day. I was surprised.
November 9, 2022
For the record, the LPNH hasn’t distanced themselves from me. At all. I’ll be at the state convention at the end of the month. The only place that has occurred is Mike Harlow’s deluded head.
November 10, 2022.
On November 10th, I posted this clip to Twitter saying that what happened to Aaron was the biggest thing I regret about running for Governor.

Remember how I had tweeted about HG Tudor, the narcissistic psychopath? I don’t know if Keri had heard of him before or if she found him because I was talking about him. Having looked through all of Keri’s tweets for two years, I haven’t seen her mention him once, even though she claimed she had been listening to him for a year and a half. Anyway, at some point, she got him on her channel for an interview that was basically about her working through her feelings about me. It was obvious to me watching it that Keri had never listened to his content because she didn’t understand the basic concepts that he talks about in almost every video of his I’ve watched (and I haven’t watched an excessive amount, though I did binge his content for a week when I first discovered him).
I did have fun watching Keri interview HG Tudor, which turned out to be her chance to talk about me.
Yes, if it means that Keri Smith will follow HG Tudor’s excellent advice and go no contact with me, I will absolutely say I’m a narcissist for that to happen.
I’M A NARCISSIST KERI. GO NO CONTACT.

And then I decided to end the game. I was just tired of it, didn’t think there was any hope of any of them ever winning, and I think I had made my point.
I also wrote this thread.
The next day, I launched my Knit Wits series, which is a stream that I do where I knit and watch other people’s content and talk about it. I enjoy pulling apart of the psychology of so-called influencers and explaining to people what’s really going on. And I enjoy being sassy. It’s not supposed to be a series stream.
I decided to start with Keri Smith’s BFF, wannabe comedian Chrissie Mayr. Remember, Chrissie had shit talked me as fat and embarrassing a few weeks prior to this, and I hadn’t forgotten about it. Honestly, I had no idea who Chrissie Mayr was other than she had insulted me on the internet because she’s friends with Keri.
Let’s just say I was unimpressed. You can watch the full stream here.
And Chrissie responded in typical influencer fashion, by calling me fat. Which Keri Smith, the Good Christian, retweeted.
Chrissie also accused me of swatting her house. Her evidence was that I was talking about her on the internet.
One of my community members had created a parody account of Keri, and after years of telling them no, I finally said I didn’t care anymore.
And Chrissie Mayr, because she’s not the brightest crayon in the box, retweeted the account believing it was Keri.
And of course, Mike Harlow responded by harassing my supporter who had nothing to do with it.
The next day, Keri went on Chrissie Mayr’s show to declare again that she never talked about me but she was thinking about starting to.
Alex and I later recounted it on our Sassy Holidays Year in REEEEEview stream:
I also started creating a thread of all the tweets Keri had ever sent about me.
That thread later was transformed into this book. I realized that documenting it on Twitter was going to be untenable, given just how many tweets we were talking about. It needed a different format. Thus, Surviving Keri Smith was born.
There are far more than 55 tweets.
Keri will be getting a compilation video of her own when I’m doing this book.
Of course, me documenting everything they’ve said publicly is apparently proof of my mental illness.
And Chrissie Mayr jumped up every once in a while to call me fat.
And Keri Smith continued to retweet it, which is the perfect example of her Christ’s love.
And of course, Mike Harlow continued to do what Mike Harlow does, which is nothing of value.
That is a really bad picture of me, I will admit. Possibly the logical end result of having been harassed by a woke cancel mob for two straight years.
Mike Harlow also convinced himself that I set up a parody account that was set up by the same member of my community that set up Keri’s. Because, of course, everyone who defends me on Twitter must really be me.
Not gonna lie, I had fun with it. Keri was so bent out out shape about The Art of the Trigger I thought why not embrace it.
Keri and her woke cancel horde used this stream to make clips out of context to call me a psycho, so I made this video showing explicitly what they were doing.
And then I published chapter 1 of Surviving Keri Smith.
And suddenly things got very quiet.
Suddenly, Keri decided to shut her mouth.
Suddenly, Keri realized she was about to get hit with the consequences that had been coming for two years.
There were a few things here and there, but it was mostly Keri’s cancel horde doing her dirty work for her, not Keri herself.
It wasn’t a coincidence we watched how the stream played out because I watch content from start to finish, to see everything in its full context. But never let the truth get in the way of a good smear.
Keri seems to think it’s better for her horde to hate-watch me and report back to her with ammo to harass me (this screenshot was taken on the evening of December 7, in case the 3 hr state stamp is confusing. I caught it in real time as I was working on this project)
Keri pops up again on December 9, again posting that compilation video. She’ll be getting her own soon enough.
And then Gays Against Groomers, which Mike Harlow works with, issued an internal code of conduct against their ambassadors participating in online drama.
I’m sure it was all just a coincidence.
And then it was quiet.
Until New Year’s eve.
One of the last tweets Keri sent in all of 2022 was about me and this book, demonstrating that she has learned nothing.
There are over 1,000 screenshots in this book of tweets that Keri Smith has sent about me since November 2020.
And yet, even with an irrefutable amount of evidence, she still claims there’s nothing to see here.
She’s either lying, or she’s delusional. And the latter is probably far more dangerous.
That concludes Surviving Keri Smith…for now.
I have an epilogue with my collective thoughts and messages for some of the people mentioned in this book.
There may be future chapters in this book. There may not be. It all depends on if Keri Smith keeps up her smear campaign.
Stay tuned…and thank you for reading.
I stayed up late to read this whole thing. It is..un fucking believable. Wow. Thank you for writing about this deeply bizarre, disturbing crusade by a deeply troubled person (Smith) and--what makes it so much more unsettling--the cult that Smith has gotten to join in and participate for over two years. I looked up the word "psychopolitics" after reading. That is the word that came to mind. And it fits.
I just don't understand why these people can't get a life and instead want to destroy yours. You are doing amazing work and I'm here to support you.
