Russia has over a million casualties.
Is this what winning looks like?

This post got brigaded; you know, that thing that the very same people accuse us of π½

Some of them even broke out their alt accounts, which they use exclusively for vote-spamming. One of them has a two year old account thatβs never made a single post or comment. We ban those.
Anti-communist social chauvanists arguing with each other over what socialism and communism are when none of them have read theory and all seem to be allergic to joining an org will never stop being funny. Plus there's one person asking for an upvoted zionist opinion, and when another user linked a zionist comment from a MWoG mod, they got banned for doing so.
Genuinely not sure what the world looks like when viewed through their myopic viewpoint.
CW gross ideation about /u/davel:
spoiler
these people are seriously unwell, absolute nazi bar.
I came across one of them saying I was a degenerate roach in another thread there:
What's interesting is that davel doesn't put pronouns in their name, so that comment is confusing.
Lemmy federation still has a quirk regarding display names. Most instances still have my display name cached like that.
Huh, interesting. TIL!
for whatever reason they do show up in the modlog in the op
I had to do a double take reading that comment too, because while davel is an admin, the post did say "moderator"
Huh, interesting, I never saw that. Maybe an issue with federation?
The stormfront / kiwifarms strategy seems to be to set up shop anywhere that won't ban them, and lets them doxx whoever they want. And there are A LOT of lemmy servers that won't take action and ban them.
The "Every Accusation a Confession" rule of thumb strikes again.
Thank you for staying on top of this kind of shit and exposing them when necessary.
