Of course he's on the losing side, and he's been there since Day 1. The purpose of his convention should be to make money, to make sure he can repeat it's "success" the next year. He's not billionaire who can chalk off a loss of money to philanthropy, he lives in a dingy apartment with his child bride and her kid(s). Since the beginning he's sided with liars, and the louder you scream on Twitter, the more likely he is to show up on your side. He's tryign to play the "Jinnie encouraged and supported this activity" while ignoring that by his own admission he did as well for multiple conventions, and so did Manjaw. The difference is that unlike them, Jinnie's managed to not lose her daggum mind and her income with it, while both Shane and Manjaw lost any chance of being part of the convention scene where they could affect any good. Oh, they'll try to play it off as outsiders tryign to fix a corrupt system, but they can't do that when they don't have any pull with anyone, and they continuously act like spoiled children/unprofessional individuals that no one in their right mind in the future will want anything to do with. If this passes appeals and goes to trial as we expect it will, he's got to be afraid: it means he can be put out publicly as a liar and piece of garbage who did it all for attention. He may not have money to take, but Vic's team can take the one thing from him that he covets: the ability to part of the con scene as an organizer in the future.
