gio needs pages and pages of "speculation" to make hussie seem like a really really scary monster who totally gives domestic abuser vibes and um uh you know the scorpion and the frog yeah the scorpion and im the poor little frog just trying to give a ride to this guy (uh um i mean they?) but they HATE ME and they HATE YOU TOO~~~ because otherwise the premise of "artist and writer i've said crazy shit about in the past is requiring me to walk it back if i want to keep my PERSONAL BRAND around distributing THEIR WORK" falls a little flat.
and as someone who has taken a course that involved sessions about interviewing - this is not at all how one does it. this is someone (inelegantly) looking for a very specific soundbite (or in this case, a screenshot).
also thank you cami for sharing the full context, i'm wishing you the best and as much strength as possible with all of this T_T
