Its a shame because they’re prominent voice on lemmy. Good on the admins for not tolerating this. I don’t understand the point of targeting a person you don’t like on the internet just because they said something that upset you and spamming their post with downvotes. If you don’t like someone block their ass and be done with it. I agree with the perspective that its harassment (and an incredibly petty ineffective form of it at that)

    He tends to get into a fight every single time I see him post and somebody says something that’s even slightly controversial, which results in an easily hundred long comment thread.

    I dread to think of what you consider only ‘slightly controversial’.

    He’s more than willing to follow you around from thread to thread to and from community to community If he sees something on your profile he doesn’t like or he disagrees with your political opinions.

    lmao, what.

    If this is a Lemmy, anarchist instance, full of a bunch of super lefties, they’re not gonna appreciate a Radlib coming in trying to start shit up and downvoting a bunch of people. They’re probably just gonna block him like they have.

    1. I’m literally a DemSoc, and I’m quite open about this. Sorry that I don’t fit your convenient stereotype for “Bad Poster”?

    2. They literally haven’t blocked me.

    3. If you count “disagreeing with someone without commenting” or, as accused elsewhere, “disagreeing with someone and commenting once when your name is mentioned” as “starting shit up”, I question what level of disagreement you think is appropriate.

    I think the recommendation here is if you’re gonna downvote people, you probably want to just stick to downvoting people directly in the thread you’re engaging with and not go in that person’s profile and downvote every single thing they’ve ever done. Or claim that every single thing they’ve ever done is something you disagree with.

    Again, as pointed out in our conversation, and, for that matter, by the admission of the person being discussed here as ‘harassed’, none of that is true.

    But I guess backpedaling admission in order to peddle blatant falsehoods in a new comment chain is all you have at this point. You already backpedaled twice in that comment chain; gotta get a new thread out for exposure of repeating the same bullshit talking points, huh?

    I don’t care, I am just pointing out the hypocrisy of the situation.

    You don’t care, of course.

      SocDem is not a marxist or an anarchist.

      Liberal does not count as a lefty. I’d much rather deal with anarchist comrades than liberal comrades.

      Please keep posting that screenshot. If people actually read it, it does not say what you think it means.

      No, I don’t care. I think you should go touch grass. I think this is fucking hilarious. I think you’re a whinger for having to go create your own community just to go whine about this.

      • Liberals can be lefties. They can’t be leftists.

        PJ has claimed to be both an anarchist and a liberal when we were arguing, that’s why I blocked the guy, lying about his positions as a rhetorical tactic. Since I assume he’s the blocked guy swinging in the comments I also assume he’s now claiming to be a DemSoc, which is funny.

        On the other hand, maybe he’s just figuring stuff out as he goes along like everyone else :)

        DemSoc. Holy fucking shit. Literally read theory.

        Please keep posting that screenshot. If people actually read it, it does not say what you think it means.

        I’m not sure if you’re being disingenuous or if your literacy is legitimately at that level.

        • This crashout is fucking legendary, I’m really enjoying the back and forth between you and the dude who talks exactly like you, bucket guy. I’m not saying your the same person or anything, it’s just amazing another one of you exists!

          DemSoc is not Marxist and hasn’t been since before the fall of the USSR.

          No, it’s just clear your comprehension isn’t where it actually needs to be and you didn’t read that screenshot carefully enough to see what it actually says.

          I bet the whole reason you don’t read Marxist theories is because you literally don’t understand what they’re saying.

            DemSoc also just bugs me as a label, all socialism is democratic. What DemSocs should really label themselves is reformist socialists, but because they can’t help but attack Marxists, they stick to cold war slander against AES by pretending reformist socialism is the only democratic form of socialism.

              Oh, so the Soviet Union wasn’t socialist, you agree, then? And neither is the PRC?

                Nah, the PRC is democratic, and so was the USSR. Both are examples of socialism in the real world. I really don’t know what you’re trying to do here, I think you need to step away from the keyboard for a bit because you seem to have been here for hours now.

                  I think we do know what he’s trying to do, because he’s been doing it every, single, day, for the last year; though I may never understand why.

                  “Democracy is when there’s one candidate approved by the government, and you can only vote for them.”

                  Okay, fascist.

                    Lmao, you and I both know that isn’t how democracy works in the PRC and it isn’t how it worked in the Soviet Union. You should also be aware of the historical tie fascism has with anticommunism. You’re just doing word salad now, please just do yourself a favor and take a break for a few days or something. You’ve been all over this thread.
