+**Neutralizing Narcissism: Sockpuppet Identity Attribution Archive**  
+*Documenting false digital personas used to distort narrative, evade accountability, and sustain narcissistic power structures*
+
+---
+
+## Overview
+
+This index tracks known or strongly attributed sockpuppet accounts connected to the case study of **Joel Johnson**, an individual engaged in complex manipulative tactics involving narrative warfare, emotional inversion, and recursive gaslighting.
+
+Each entry documents the **sockpuppet alias**, **date of first known activity**, **primary function or attack vector**, and **evidentiary linkage**—establishing a trail of pattern coherence across multiple platforms.
+

+
+## Sockpuppet: `Dex Anous`
+
+- **Alias**: Dex Anous  
+- **Platform**: Substack  
+- **Date of Appearance**: February 14, 2025  
+- **Primary Function**: Attack Mark Havens’ credibility and derail narrative integrity on *Preliminary Case Study: Joel Johnson and the Tactics of Performative Intellectualism*  
+- **Tactics Used**:
+  - Ad hominem smearing  
+  - Emotional hyperbole and false projection  
+  - Scripted accusatory narrative with no evidence  
+  - Linguistic signature errors matching Joel Johnson’s known patterns  
+- **Evidentiary Artifacts**:
+  - `Gmail - New comment on Preliminary Case Study...pdf`  
+  - `expert-forensic-report/Expert Forensic Report_ Attribution of Alias _Dex Anous_ to Joel Johnson.pdf`  
+  - `field-note_dex-anous-as-early-sockpuppet-mask-construct.md`  
+  - `rhetorical-patterns-and-truth-distortion/` directory  
+- **Attribution Confidence**: High  
+  - Based on linguistic fingerprinting, reactive narrative timing, emotional symmetry with Joel’s known ruptures, and metadata correspondence.
+
+---
+
+## Canonical Significance
+
+“Dex Anous” is the **first known sockpuppet** used by Joel Johnson in the published record. As such, it marks the **prototype pattern** for later identity-masking strategies. The alias functions as a **reactive mask**, constructed hastily in the wake of perceived ego rupture. Its design lacks structural realism—demonstrating a narcissist's desperation to collapse external narrative coherence.
+
+This case serves as an anchor for triangulating future digital personas by their rhetorical and behavioral echo.
+
+---
+
+## Future Additions
+
+This index will expand to include:
+- Sockpuppets used on Facebook, Substack, Reddit, and other platforms
+- Cross-referenced triangulation threads
+- Metadata clusters for identity linkage
+- Affiliated triangulation proxies and “flying monkeys” used in reputational warfare
