The second someone wastes their time in your post history you've already won

Sometimes you see a wild political take on Lemmy and you open their profile and see them praising Russia and China.

[-] Pricklesthemagicfish@reddthat.com 41 points 1 month ago

Whats wrong with chinese food? Is it not suculant and delicious?

[-] W98BSoD@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 1 month ago

Ooh, that's a nice headlock, sir

[-] joelfromaus@aussie.zone 3 points 1 month ago

You know your judo well.

[-] SubArcticTundra@lemmy.ml 18 points 1 month ago

You don't even need to open their history – you just look at their instance. I love Lemmy.

[-] Pat_Riot@lemmy.today 6 points 1 month ago

Oh that? That's just .ml

[-] wizardbeard@lemmy.dbzer0.com 5 points 1 month ago

Sometimes? Often, lol.

Pretty sure some bingo cards have even been made.

I don't know if I'd go that far. It's one of the easiest ways to identify troll behavior. Sure going through and analyzing every post is insane, but being able to click on someone's history and see that oh they say stupid stuff for reactions regularly is pretty helpful. I'd also argue that it's helpful when people are making intellectually dishonest arguments when they have ulterior motives. Racist dog whistles for instance, when someone makes an argument that's a pretty obvious dog whistle and then claims they're just asking questions the Post history can sometimes help cut through that nonsense.

Nah bro, I remember that post where some guy was criticizing OP's cooking, so OP checks that dude's post history and finds how he drinks his own piss.

I'm pretty sure OP won that argument by just mentioning that

[-] Fleur_@aussie.zone 4 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

They just wasted their time deliberating the opinion of someone who drinks piss instead of having confidence in their own abilities all to "win" an internet debate. That's not winning. At best they both lose

You need to escape them, like this:

mass downvoting

There are accounts that exclusively downvote random comments. Not controversial comments, random ones. I have no idea what the person running the bot gets out of it.

[-] fonix232@fedia.io 2 points 1 month ago

A false sense of power and control.

Probably kids practicing their first bot or something

I would argue that the second you get into an argument online with strangers you've already lost

Wait....

Fuck.

[-] Fleur_@aussie.zone 3 points 1 month ago

This is the real answer

[-] mech@feddit.org 3 points 1 month ago

Whenever I feel the need to check the post history I now just stop replying and move on.

[-] Fleur_@aussie.zone 1 points 1 month ago

Winning lotto numbers are in my comment history trust it's a good use of time
