Perhaps folks have information about post sources that I do no have. The difference in persona is large enough that serious creative fiction would be necessary for them to be the same person. That's not impossible but both being controlled by the same propaganda system is a simpler explanation.
I thought Chap had the right idea with the exorcist.
- Word usage, misspellings and substitutions are the same between the two accounts.
- Repeated topics, characterizations of others and named targets are the same.
- Excuses for acting out are the same.
- Gripes about old posts from 5 or more years ago are the same and refer to the same two or so posts.
- The Hound account has also screwed up its own timelines when referring to actions, exposing both accounts to be from the same operator.
The Hound account has had to tone it down a bit to stay on the board. This new version of AtlanticMike apparently sees this as having taught the board how to behave, when all that’s really happened is that resurrected Atlanticmike clones end up having to progressively (lol) ratchet back their excesses in order to keep from being banned, making the Atlanticmike clones almost exclusively and the most dramatically affected by his own behavior.
