Mini Manson 🦇
Mini Manson is a man on YouTube who is obsessed with Marilyn Manson. He performs cover songs in his home (not just Marilyn Manson).
I'll give you the run-down:
He has pictures of Marilyn Manson and licks them on camera.
He admits to having a bladder fetish.
He claims to have once pooped on his partner's sofa. He then hid behind the sofa, waited for his lover to come home, then proceeded to use the soiled sofa as a puppet to communicate with said partner.
He was used by Jesse P.S. of Pod Awful to troll the Highland Park mass shooting (which Mini Manson now "kinda" regrets).
