Robert Komaniecki @komaniecki.bsky.social · 23hI shared this sentiment on Instagram and a man—a former fraternity brother—obliquely threatened me and my family from what he thought was a private account. It wasn’t. I called him directly on his cell phone this morning. Panic, apologies, excuses, hung up. Don’t bring piss to a shit fight. 21074
