I swear, ~~every time~~ most of the time I see someone being particularly rude, ignorant, and inappropriate on a post (usually political in origin, or they swing it to being political) I click on their profile and see it has been created that same day.

They are only there to sow discord. Only to piss people off. Idk if we can just report them (for what?) but I'd like to try exposing them before responding and interacting..

I am guilty of gobbling up the bait. I've started looking at profiles of people that piss me off exceptionally and noticed they're burner bot loser accounts.

I guess i just want to say I've noticed it!

Wonder what you said three hours ago to get banned from the Dunk Tank. You're really lucky the modlog doesn't elaborate on what it was, or I'd post the receipt here.

The person who makes Hyperland was blacklisted by freedesktop (Linux stuff) over saying something transphobic as far as I understand from a glance.

They made a post in response in which they said 'This other person threatened to sexually assault people as revenge for something small. I'm not the only person deserving of shame'. I'm sure there's more to this story, I don't care.

A hexbear user in response to this story wrote there's a false equivalence between a trans person calling for violence in a hyperbolic tweet and this app developer using their platform to spread anti-trans hate. I think, again, I do not care about the actual story, Fictitiousexistence's comment doesn't need context to be bad.

@fictitiousexistence@lemmy.ml replied with:

This leads me to believe that anyone who disagrees with Lyude is a Transexual Nobeards shithead.

Yeah nah, fuck that guy then. All the modlog had was that he'd got banned; but the comment didn't have a removal message in the modlog, so I didn't see that-- that's fuckin gross.
