Today I noticed a huge wall of spam from UniversalMonk from 2 different accounts and didn't initially think much of it and blocked their communities but more spam came from different communities.
At this point I checked and saw that they had created several communities which then led me down the rabbit hole to discover that their posts had almost entirely covered the new posts page of both sh.itjust.works and lemm.ee. Later on I discovered that they're posting right-wing propaganda and misinformation from breitbart, foxnews you name it.
He's already caused and stirred shit 2 months ago and clearly I can see why now.
At this point it's difficult to believe that UniversalMonk will learn proper netiquette in: not post spamming, being considerate to others, and not sharing right-wing extremist content that no one wants.
Everyone wanted to know how it would go for the "I just want people to support a 3rd party" folks after the election... Well, now you know!
Apologies I don't really understand what you mean by that
I'm guessing this is a referral to the US election?
He was banned on lemmy.world for excessive Jill Stiein/3rd party spam prior to the election and the discussion at the time was "What will they do after the election?" Well, now you know. Right Wing all along.
ahh I see
Thank you for the clarification👍
I want to push back on this just a little. Clearly UM isn't the bastion of consistent good thought, but others that were maligned like return2ozma have been pretty consistent in what they post.
This is to say, "Great, one person is a fuckup. Why are we attributing this to the whole group?"
Becuase 3p vote is the threat to neo libaral regimes... They requires polarization and two choices to lock us into endless cultures warz lesser of two evils, trust me bro vote for my guy...
