    Hell hath no fury like a competitive nerd being put on a pedestal.

    I think this happens a lot anytime someone who perceives themselves as being shunned by society gets too much positive feedback and an iota of power over people.

    I think its the same reason why every nerdy twitch streamer ends up being outed as an abusive child predator.
