Thanks for the perspective.

I dont know if I feel less or more gross about finding nathen amusing now

Don't feel gross at all! There's so much fodder to laugh about when he's lucid, and he's mostly lucid. And I'll be honest, sometimes I laugh when he's full-on manic and says absurd things. Just stand back and take it all in, is my advice.

The central concept of Arabiolosis to convert from feeling species to thinking species (or was it other way round?) is extremely dumb. Those things are not mutually exclusive to any species, and you don’t just stop one of those behaviours to increase your XP for the other one. I question to what degree Nathen thinks or feels sincerely about anything. There’s a failson angle and a failed businessman angle and I feel like both have got to be weighing heavily on the psyche.

Well, the first thing you gotta' realize, brother, is this right here is the future of entergagement. You can call this the Arabiolosis World Order of eating, brother. These two cartoon animals right here came from a great licensing organization up north and everybody was wondering, who would be the man to put them on lasagna boxes? Well, who knows more about farm to plate than me, brother?

Well, let me tell you something. I made Garfield Eats a monster. I made landlords rich up there. I made the people that ran that run Nickelodeon rich up there, brother. And when it all came to pass, the name Nathen Mazri, the man Nathen Mazri, got bigger than the whole organization, brother. And then, Jim Davis, amigo; he wanted to talk turkey with Nathen Mazri. Well, Jim Davis and 20th Century Fox promised me movies, brother. Jim Davis promised me millions of dollars if I took care of the cat. And Jim Davis promised me world-caliber tomato sauce recipes. And as far as Jim Davis goes, 20th Century Fox, and the whole Canadian real estate business goes, I'm bored brother.

That's why these two cartoons here, the so-called "fake animals," these are the men I want as my friends. They are the new blood of frozen eating, brother. And not only are we going to take over the whole grocery store business with Nathen Mazri and the new blood, the dog and cat with me, we will destroy everything in our path, Mean Gene.

I do find it funny that he’s basically denouncing capitalism with his anti profit anti landlord screeds but is still wanting that system to fully succeed for him instead of gaining any class awareness (I guess self awareness would be a precursor to that)

Assholes like Nathen don't want to abolish the system, they want it to pander specifically to them because they're entitled solipsists.

That is one thing I'll dispute. Nathen is a spoiled, delusional failson and I'll never argue that. The conspiracy theories come out when he's delusional and psychotic, though, and I think it's unfair to hold that against them. I have a brother who is mentally ill AND an rear end in a top hat, so I'm familiar with Nathen's type. My brother is mostly a dick, like Nathen; but when he starts calling relatives several days in a row, to brag about his non-existent stock market fortune for hours, that's the bipolar disorder talking. When he's not delusional, though, my brother never talks about his finances. Nathen talking about Covid and creating his own army, is Nathen when he's delusional. Like, delusional enough that it could be argued he's not responsible for his actions when he's in this state. (NOT excusing him for ignoring his mental health and so on.)

The thing to remember is, Nathen doesn't espouse these kinds of beliefs when he's not manic. Sometimes we're convinced that someone with a mental illness is speaking their "true," unfiltered feelings, but that's just not true. My brother doesn't believe he's a millionaire genius being persecuted by the CIA when he's not manic.

Counterpoint: Maybe he's just an immature eccentric with spoiled rear end in a top hat tendencies and some delusions of grandeur, who gets overexcited periodically from an excess of booze or something similar, or whose resentments and conspiacy hypotheses just build up periodically until he must rant and rave... and being pretty friendless (a strange person in a strange land) he does it via social media posts.

Aside from amateur psychiatry, is there any actual hard evidence he's bipolar?

He lists it in his books' preface:

Preface posted:

Nathen, a young Arab-Canadian man is leaving Laval in the French province of Quebec with his family to settle in a soon to be discovered a tyrannical kingdom of Arabia in the middle of the desert sinking his soul in monotony, an unspoken epidemic, and defeated by suppression for over 12 years of his life lingering with broken dreams, Scoliosis, sexual identity crisis, bipolar disease, and the struggle to claim true elusive love.
