In addition to that person, you should also know about me. I'm awesome!
This unactionable vaguepost is what suffices as a YSK?
Rule 2- Your post body text must include the reason "Why" YSK
Why should I know this, OP?
Oh hello mr Russian-pretending-to-be-American.
You've never answered why you pretend to be American while at the same time clearly supporting Russia and spreading Russian propaganda.
Are you such a weak-willed American you've bought into Russian propaganda?
Isn't it annoying when you can't just delete my comment and ban me like you alway do, mr Pro-Russian?
(This guys has said things like "reality has a well known Russian propaganda bias".)
He's pro-Russian, and will never answer that particular question despite being ready to lie about everything else, because he knows even a clear lie of "I hate Putin" written by him in the context of him being American could be reason enough for him to accidentally fall out of a window. Because Russia is a shithole autocracy.
This guy never states shit, goes around spamming wannabe good looking lists of links of shit that's incredibly easily shown to be utter shit, but because there's so much, it'll always just diverge from the actual point.
It's got a name.
An outgrowth of Soviet propaganda techniques, the firehose of falsehood is a contemporary model for Russian propaganda under Russian President Vladimir Putin.

Spreading FUD everywhere.

All you need to do to prove this is try to get him to answer whether he's pro-Russian or not. Not a hard question, yet he just can't manage answering it.

Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.
Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.
Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Posts and comments which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding non-YSK posts.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-YSK posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
Rule 7- You can't harass or disturb other members.
If you harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
If you are a member, sympathizer or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
