The Florida gay community should be absolutely relieved that Joe Winko is dead. Imagine a parallel universe where Jeffery Dahmer got the impulse to kill himself before he went on to kill anyone else. Florida gays just got this lucky break because Joe Winko had all the ingredients to become a serial killer; the extreme narcissism, the rage towards gay men who saw he was damaged goods and rightfully rejected him, the obsession with death and the occult.
If he didn't have the suicidal impulse, eventually there would be a collection of severed heads of elderly gay men in his refrigerator to give him the hours of endless blowjobs he always wanted and he will imagine their ghosts as the obsessive never leaving adoring fan he always wanted. Dahmer had the exact same issues with abandonment, but wanted a brain dead sex zombie instead.
I never saw any redeeming qualities in this sick freak. He was not a harmless schizophrenic. He had constant fantasies of using his occult powers via magick spells to enact mass death and revenge on his perceived enemies. His narcissism would preclude him for getting any treatment. He told his critics on this thread to kill themselves with sodium nitrite. He could have just as easily spiked the drink of one of his gay sugar daddies with it the moment he thought they were going to give him the boot.
If the farms somehow goaded him into killing himself online, to use his own words SO MOTE IT BE. He was eventually going to kill somebody, good thing it was himself and not anyone else.
