He examines how peace offerings get weaponized into escalation tactics, how panel-style streams function as modern arenas for public grievance settlement, and how niche livestream communities operate as conflict-production systems where interpersonal drama fuels engagement and relevance—ultimately framing these dynamics through spiritual and demonic warfare frameworks.
