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!

    .ml is very obviously like 20% right wing trolls pretending to be leftists. Literally everyone on the fediverse can see it except for the admins who protect these trolls because of Poe’s law blindness.

          If you think liberalism is the left most position on the scale, then you’re exactly what I’m talking about

        Nah, I am a leftist, I have just actually studied enough political science to understand the difference between leftism and braindead campism.

          Your post history is 85% left punching, 10% defending Israel, and 5% advocating for new deal style capitalism.

          Like I said: liberals literally cannot imagine people existing to the left of them.

            I don’t see it as left punching as much as calling out campists and .ml mods. I see it as holding up actual leftist values rather than forming a political philosophy around relitigating the cold war. I have never defended Israel, I have called out the issue with religious fundamentalism in this conflict. I have and will continue to call Israel an apartheid state.

            Like I said, MLs literally cannot imagine the existence of political theory after 1924.

            Also, my account is at least 5% femboy worship. At least do your homework.

              Average chaser lol. People will unironically just declare “hey, I have a fetish for objectifying crossdressing twinks!” and then act like it’s a completely normal, not creepy thing to say out of nowhere because it’s funny when it’s queer people being randomly fetishized

                I’ll let my partner know that you think they are a fetish. They’ll get a kick out of it. If I was you I’d probably find your comment offensive.

              I don’t think anyone really cares how you see it: its all just you railing at anyone to the left of Elizabeth Warren.

              I see it as holding up actual leftist values

              Leftist values like western chauvinism, anti-communism, pro-capitalism, and Zionism.

              I have never defended Israel

              Lol, sure thing.

                Yes, Marx definitely wrote a lot about “western chauvinism.” Perhaps you mean “social chauvinism?” Because it’s definitely very confusing language for the under studied. Perhaps you should pick up some German language.

                Again, I just can’t help but be struck by the stark chasm between this liturgical internet “leftism,” which seems confused between the principals of pragmatic worker liberation, versus the fantasy that Lenin’s autocracy ever achieved anything noteworthy. But I guess populist fan service gets engagement, so who cares about results, right?

                  "MLs cannot imagine political theory after 1924! But also, unless Karl Marx himself explicitly said it, it isn’t real!’

                  Because it’s definitely very confusing language for the under studied. Perhaps you should pick up some German language.

                  Lol, perfect. I can tell you watch Oppenheimer recently…

                  You think the USSR wasn’t a noteworthy improvement on imperial Russia? And your calling other people ‘under-studied’? Good lord, liberals really are proudly ignorant.

                  so who cares about results, right?

                  MLs. MLs are the ones who care about results and ‘practical workers liberation’, rather than liberals, who simply demand instant utopia while defending capitalism.
