James Hind, known for his obsessive and relentless targeting of individuals, has once again attempted to skew reality through his misleading and disingenuous statements. In his recent blog post titled, "Matthew Taylor (Brighton) breaks truce inside 24 hours," Hind falsely claims that a truce existed between Project Night Watch (PNW) and Matthew Taylor, only to declare that Taylor has broken it. Let’s set the record straight: no such truce ever existed. What did occur was Taylor publicly conceding that Hind had achieved his goal through a campaign of lies, harassment, and relentless provocation, he declared that "James Hind wins." Hind’s insistence on interpreting this statement as some formal "truce" is not only misleading but further evidence of his continued efforts to manipulate narratives.
Breaking Down Hind’s Narrative.
Hind claims that Taylor’s supposed truce lasted "less than 24 hours" before Taylor allegedly violated it by posting a video titled “Sock Puppet Blues,” which Hind interprets as an attack on PNW and the “retired” James Hind brand. However, there was no agreement to break in the first place, making this entire assertion baseless. Taylor’s concession was a statement of frustration and exhaustion in response to Hind’s sustained campaign of harassment - not a pact or a promise to stop responding altogether.
This distinction is crucial because it highlights how Hind continually warps facts to suit his narrative. He has positioned himself as a victim, feigning indignation at Taylor’s actions to justify his continued aggression.
The False Victimhood and Deflection Tactics.
Hind’s narrative is built around a recurring pattern: portraying himself and PNW as victims of Taylor’s obsessive behaviour, while simultaneously using this supposed victimhood as a shield for his own misconduct. In his blog post, Hind frames Taylor as a “stalker” with “obsessive-compulsive disorder,” attempting to pathologize Taylor in order to invalidate his legitimate grievances and criticisms. This tactic not only dehumanises Taylor but also attempts to shift focus away from Hind’s own unethical behaviour.
Hind goes on to mention Taylor’s supposed “obsession” with xxxxx xxxxxxxxx, citing a blog post where Taylor lamented being silenced by a Stalking Protection Order (SPO) that prevents him from telling his side of the story. Hind conveniently omits the context here, which is that the SPO has been a tool used to suppress Taylor’s right to respond to a smear campaign against him-a campaign that Hind himself has been actively perpetuating.
Misrepresentation of Events and Continued Harassment.
Hind’s portrayal of Taylor as a dangerous stalker who needs to be contained by legal orders is another cornerstone of his narrative. He claims that Taylor is a “serial liar” and a “delusional fantasist,” whose social media presence is nothing more than a platform for spreading false allegations and terrorising his “many victims.” This language is intentionally inflammatory, designed to paint Taylor as a dangerous threat while ignoring the reality of Hind’s own provocations and inflammatory statements.
What Hind fails to acknowledge is that Taylor’s public comments and social media posts have largely been defensive in nature-responses to ongoing attacks, not unprovoked assaults. The fact that Hind continues to publish defamatory and accusatory content, even after Taylor’s declaration that “Hind wins,” is proof enough that the real instigator is not Taylor but Hind himself.
A Cycle of Harassment and Gaslighting.
Hind’s strategy is clear: provoke a response from Taylor, then use that response as evidence of Taylor’s instability or aggression. This cycle of harassment is fueled by Hind’s relentless need to control the narrative, ensuring that he is always seen as the innocent party while Taylor is cast as the villain. By repeatedly accusing Taylor of breaking non-existent truces and using labels like “stalker” and “abuser,” Hind attempts to justify his own behaviour while gaslighting Taylor into silence.
Moreover, Hind’s assertion that there is “no reason for Taylor to focus on xxxxxxxxx anymore” is both dismissive and misleading. It ignores the fact that the very reason Taylor is compelled to address xxxxxxxxx and others is due to the false narratives and accusations that Hind and his associates have continued to spread. When Hind states that xxxxxxxxx has “moved on” to focus on his “Star Trek interests,” he is attempting to erase the harm that has been done and the ongoing impact of those false accusations.
Hind’s Continued Aggression and Lack of Accountability.
The underlying irony in Hind’s post is that while he accuses Taylor of breaking a so-called truce, it is Hind himself who has shown no intention of ceasing his attacks. His fixation on Taylor remains as strong as ever, and his willingness to fabricate narratives to maintain control over the situation is indicative of his own obsessive behaviour. By framing Taylor’s exhaustion and concession as some kind of victory for PNW, Hind reveals his true intention: to beat his targets into submission, forcing them to either disappear or conform to his version of events.
In the end, Hind’s latest post is not an update on some broken agreement but rather a continuation of his strategy to dominate and discredit Taylor through manipulation, distortion, and relentless harassment. His rhetoric is tired, his tactics transparent, and his obsession evident.
Conclusion.
James Hind’s latest post is not a reflection of Matthew Taylor’s failure to honour a truce, but rather a testament to Hind’s own inability to let go. His continued fixation on Taylor, even after the so-called “retirement” of his James Hind brand, is proof that he remains as engaged in this toxic battle as ever. If anyone needs to take a step back and reevaluate their behaviour, it is Hind himself.
Until he does, we can expect more of the same: lies, manipulation, and a relentless campaign to rewrite reality to suit his needs. The question, then, is not if Taylor will respond but how long Hind will continue his obsessive quest for domination. As always, the real story lies not in what Hind claims, but in what he carefully avoids acknowledging-his own role as the true harasser in this saga.
