This is just a partial list of this POS’s ban and block evasion tactics. Every two to three days, this asshole forces an instance to federate out, wasting their resources, and doesn’t give a shit who has banned or tried to block them. Then a large number from every one of these account is very heavily upvoted. Oh, that isn’t suspicious at all, especially when over 90% of what this fuckwqd posts is the laziest kind of repost (just blatantly ripped from .ml in a likely automated way similar to the the account creation likely is since they will make accounts on instances less than a day old).
I am fucking tired of this shitty, bad faith action and this is proof that it is high time that an instance needs the ability to straight up perma ban a username from any instance. I am aware that PieFed has this feature and right now it seems like something so incredibly basic. One person has the power to make all of Lemmy effectively useless, and it needs to stop being that way immediately.
Update from OP on this, imagine reacting like this in defense of someone acting like a bot
Editing to delete all of this. I am getting real threats again, and I am not willing to have a complete mental collapse over fucking Lemmy for a 2nd time. Fuck this place. And especially fuck all of the transpose assholes bent on making my life hell. I am deleting my accounts permanently, but will leave the content up. Don’t worry, you won’t need to kill or doxx me, I intend to take care of the former myself.
wow that’s fucked; all the lemmy power users showing up to shit on op was certainly telling though
Also noticed as sdf was down & looking locally for updates on the issue the volume of what cm is doing. Gave up counting after seeing about 15 posts from them by 2nd page.
And then how often that Philip users almost always commenting on same posts by cm
“I’m not botting I just have an rss feed of .ml that sends me notifications for every post so I can repost them”
When I first noticed they were doing this I snuck “cm0002 is a nazi” into a meme image and they reposted it anyways
no I work really hard to filter out the bad stuff
Oh and they got banned from rants lol
They? was that cm0002 or the poster?
cm0002, 2 week ban for posting their usual list of hyperbolic paraphrasing of ‘tankies’ over and over
OP deleted her account citing threats and not wanting to deal with transphobes
Yep, that’s shit libs. Transphobia is okay when you find someone spending too much time on the internet is weird.
Says a lot when the criticism of bot like behavior just leads to the one pointing it out getting threats instead of addressing the issues brought up
Yeah the cm user was banned. Then another said that’s why they blocked the rant comm.
We’re going hard defending cm so 🤷
Yet according to op enough to start throwing threats for ranting about them.
Wtf is wrong with people
watching andor was worth it for this meme alone
ah hahaha good ol cm0002. i wish i had ⅒ of their energy. i do find myself wondering sometimes what their real life circumstances are; that they can and would dedicate so much energy into making lemmy into reddit when reddit is still right there.
their willful ignorance angers me, but I’m comforted by the idea that they arent happy or smug as they pretend… no way. that boundless energy must stem from a nameless, aching, screaming fear that keeps them up at night… typing them screeds with shaking hands
Blows my mind someone will leave the enshittified capitalist slop trough because it sucks, which is directly attributable to systemic reasons, and then come to the place Marxists made on a volunteer basis specifically to overcome the shortcomings, and then get mad because there’s Marxists. So they make “Marxist free” instances which inevitably enshittify because of systemic reasons…
I almost want to say teenager based on how much they’re online but who knows
For other people blocking me, I don’t really care if they do or don’t, it’s just unfortunate unintended side effects for the actual reasons below. If I was really ban/block evading I’d just make up an entirely new user name each time, it would be FAR more effective and longer lasting.
Trolling .ml or Why am I cross-posting .ml content?
I cross-post from .ml to the nearest relevant non-.ml comm to reduce the influence of .ml comms and indirectly, the instance as a whole, to make it an easier decision for other instance admins to defederate because one key reason I identified that admins don’t want to defederate is because .ml still has some very large comms and some niche comms.
Some highlights from the link: “Don’t worry guys, the Uyghur Genocide was REALLY just birth control! ~dessalines, .ml admin, dev https://lemmy.world/post/30580167 “See! nobody died IN Tiananmen Square, just AROUND it, so it doesn’t count!!” ~ Davel, .ml admin https://lemmy.world/post/30673342
.ml admin, Nutomics continued transphobia https://lemmy.world/post/29222558 The original transphobic Comment from Nutomic: https://lemmy.world/post/18236068
“NK is actually good and anything counter to that is Western propaganda!” ~dessalines, .ml admin, dev https://lemmy.world/post/31595035
General negative sentiment to other instances who haven’t “seen the way” yet ~davel, .ml admin https://lemmy.world/post/27426510
“If you don’t support Russia then you just don’t understand geopolitics” ~dessalines, .ml admin, dev https://lemmy.world/post/27352415
And so so much documentation on clear heavy handed censorship and bias also on the link. So much I can’t even put them all here because this comment would be really long.
I believe the behavior of its admins (the main admins are Lemmy devs) does harm to the overall growth of the Lemmy-verse and maybe even the Thrediverse (since Lemmy kinda kicked off the Thrediverse) because of its association with the devs of Lemmy and their insistence to use .ml as their personal political platform to spread harmful propaganda
On the outside, bringing up Lemmy frequently leads to comments like “Lemmy? Isn’t that the place with a bunch of tankies?” Or “Tried Lemmy, but found it full of pro Russia crap so I left”. The best way forward from that I see is to either widely defederate from .ml like the rest of the Triad, or pressure them to put a fair and unbiased as possible admin team.
Lmao what a fucking loser
LOL This is incredable! Imagine if you could harness and weaponize that kind of energy, but for good.
I’m not that up to date actually, did something happen there cm0002 become banned in nearly every instance? I thought these were troll accounts or just cm0002 being cm0002
I have educated myself.
- He is claiming the accounts so that no one else impersonates him
- This is a rant and the fact it’s overblown is hilarious, people are more mad about cm0002 being potentially criticized than cm0002 himself, is this the spectre of communism?
- The general consensus is that ‘this is good, actually’ because they’re simultaneously mad at .ml and afraid of .ml backlash on a public, open source software
- Other viewpoints hold a position where either this is causing redditification (correct) or that cm0002 is doing this for a senseless crusade against authoritarianism which isn’t even there (also correct though you will be put on a stake for saying this everywhere outside here)
- It was never actually explained why cm0002 posts on them anyway because all he said was that he likes to view algorithms from those instances, why post from so many accounts?
- cm0002 is very unapologetic and very smug, just like a Redditor, not because I want to insult him but because it’s a very apt description to how he behaves currently
::: rant All this reminds me of is that there is no overton window for foreign policy, these people are hunting a spectre that doesn’t even exist, this being done, according to cm0002, to rescue Lemmy from irreverence or being called tankie or pro-russia is absurd, obviously I don’t want a reddified Lemmy but if that’s what they want then what can I do? Hexbear is insular, we won’t be affected, but watching from the distance is frustrating, not that I am volunteering to venture into there, I rather not, but the utter disconnect from what .ml actually serves and discusses vs. what they think it does is utter madness, it’s just there! They’re your neighbours! You were fine with them a year ago, why not just ask questions? Who am I kidding they obviously know what they’re doing. :::
I think they finally realized how terrible lw is because they kept jordanlund around. But now can’t work out a new home? (or get rate limited so much needed alts?).
Who knows, they’re basically another pugjeasus
im confused
Oh this weirdo again.
that admin sounds exhausted. godspeed, troll.
