The man creates a pseudonym and hides behind it like a worm

Summary

This quote suggests that the individual mentioned is hiding their true self behind a fictional identity, much like a worm burrows beneath the surface. It implies that the person is avoiding personal accountability and allows their pseudonym to shield them from facing the consequences or scrutiny of their actions. The comparison to a worm highlights the notion of being small, insignificant, and lacking sincerity or authenticity in their interactions with others.
