I got one that sounded even more threatening. Said your voting record is public, which is sketchy as fuck and implies who you vote for is public as well, but skirts actually saying it. It does, however, not explicitly say who you for for is secret either.

Casual Ohio voter suppression, nbd.

Failing to denounce Hamas, Palestinian journalist attacks bullet using his head as a cudgel.

I’ve had a tag on the user I think you’re referencing for a minute now. It’s quite helpful.

The problem with riling up crazy people is they are crazy, and as a result somewhat unpredictable.

Overall though they seem connected: not wanting to defederate from either lemmy.ml with its constant calls for guillotines (I mean… not that I don’t understand the reason for such:-) or from hexbear.net, mainstream users are being turned away.

If I hadn’t found a way to block Hexbear I’d have been gone. It took me about 2 weeks to realize the users that were the most insufferable to me were largely all from there, and I was a hair from quitting Lemmy because of it. So, for me at least you have it exactly right.

Is .ee one of the ones with bad rep? I picked it randomly.

It isn’t about taking from the rich either. It’s about letting THEM take less, so there’s more for everyone else. Slight distinction, but they are the ones taking, not the workers.

He’s on a .ml instance

That shit is still everywhere where I am. Vote as if he’s a popular as he ever was, because in some areas he sure seems to be.

Save a click: Google found to be a monopoly (obviously),. They will likely appeal the decision (obviously). No detail on whether a penalty that would actually penalize the behavior in any real manner is being considered/enacted, but I think we know.

Cope.

I have never encountered a posting like that, but I’d be interested to see an example of it if you have one. Happen to have a link to one?

Edit: So that’s a no then. That’s a… problematic thing to make up.

I would guess that it’s all about emphasis.

Kinda like:

I never said we should kill him

I never said we should kill him

I never said we should kill him

Etc etc. Each emphasized word changes how that entire sentence is read, regardless of which one is emphasized.

I have a little orange kitty that drools if he purrs hard enough. He first showed me this tendency as a kitten by drooling on my face when I was asleep, hahaha.

All hail the gigantic casserole.

What, and I mean this sincerely, the fuck.

So are you just one guy with a lot of time and accounts to use, or is this like, a group of people working to make these low effort bait posts? I realize that might come across as dismissive, but I’m genuinely interested. Let’s chat!

It’s like you’re not even trying.

I see. I appreciate your taking the time to explain your point of view. Still not my preferred method of engagement, but I understand better where you were coming from, and that’s what I was trying to accomplish!
