      Oh, I remember that thread. Mr. Monk here got all bent out of shape thinking that the person who replied to its thread was calling it a shill or plant, when it was obvious the commenter was referring to the subject of the article, the “Libertarian” who dropped out when it became clear he was drawing more votes from Democrats than Republicans, a shill or plant. I laughed at that. Dude has a persecution complex for sure. And then he accused you of being an admin of that instance he got banned on? I really want to post a Bugs Bunny “What a maroon” meme, but the mods might delete the comment for attacking Monk. So I’ll just say the convicted Sealion sure acts like a fool…

      I actually had nothing against the article, but this was one of them that clued me in that this guy was nothing good.

        Yeah. I especially like that I supposedly created a Lemmy instance with a very specific name (associated with West Virginia, no less…?) a year ago, waited 10 months, banned the troll from it, then waited another month or so to come taunt him about it. And of course to keep this all secret, I use an account on lemm.ee! muAhAH

        The actual takeaway here is that he gets really butthurt when banned. Might have to do with the fact that reddit banned him. I saw a post here on Lemmy that claimed UniversalMonk was also a reddit shitposter for a decade or more. Wouldn’t surprise me if true

        Any luck getting banned so far? I bet if you point out their reddit ban, that’d do it.

          Nah. I really haven’t spent that much time on that poster. I have a life, and I think the mods are trying to tell me ‘engage with this person less’. It’s sad that the Mods aren’t taking this behaviour by this poster more seriously. All I can really do is call it out on its BS, and wait until after the election when its BS won’t be as effective at depressing Dem turnout. That’s all I’m really waiting for. The sad thing is we will be playing this game again in 2028 because this kind of BS is more effective than it should be, given the cruelty and stupidity of the average American voter.
