    So to everyone calling me a troll: what is trolling about my behavior?

    I post news articles from major news orgs. Some of which happen to be pro-conservative. That’s not what trolling is.

    I don’t advocate violence. I don’t advocate anything racist. I don’t advocate anything radical. That’s not what trolling is.

    I fucking post news articles. That you don’t have to read.

    The conservative articles go to conservative communities. The socialist articles go to socialist communities. Most of my posts go to MY OWN COMMUNITIES! That’s not what trolling is.

    Lemmy IS NOT a liberal-only online forum.

    You all being mad and calling me a “troll” just because you don’t like articles about trump is hilarious to me. I have asked you all several times to just block the conservative communities I post in, and then you won’t see any of them.

    Being mad just because I didn’t vote for Harris is a ridiculous reason to call me a troll. I didn’t vote for Trump either.

    Ya’ll need to calm down and not take Lemmy so seriously! lol

    You are allowed to create your own liberal communities. I am allowed to create my own conservative communities.

    Even though I’m not conservative, I feel they have a right to partake in Lemmy.

    And I’ll help them do that. Cool?

    Thanks, friends!

      Sure, if the instance the comms are on allows it, they have that right. Of course, looking at the member numbers, doesn’t look like any of them are taking you up on the offer for a safe place. I’ve heard the term echo chamber before, but you don’t even have enough people for that.

        So then it’s a win for you, right? I mean, I do my own thing and no one shows up. So cool

        So instead of trying to get me banned, shouldn’t you just be laughing that no one cares about me? No reason to start entire threads about me, since no one cares, right?

        No reason to be scared of little ole me. The guy no one shows up for.

        And if there is a place for conservatives, and no one shows up, then win-win for you. Because Lemmy’s can say “Hey we don’t discriminate, there are places for conservatives!” And since no one goes there, then you don’t have to worry about it.

        So no reason to be upset with me, right?

        I just talking into the void to an audience of one. Right?

        Shouldn’t the tone of this thread be, “hahaha Universal Monk is nothing! Look, no one is listening to him! How pathetic!” instead of "He’s dangerous, we gotta get rid of him. He’s ruining Lemmy!"

        Right?

          I’m not trying to get you banned. I don’t give a shit about you, other than finding a momentary bit of amusement at how sad and lonely the whole thing looks.

            Yeah, he said that to me too. I don’t care about him being banned, although making a bunch of aliases is bullshit. ESPECIALLY if they are names that already belong to people. Double bullshit there.

            Lemmy is unintentionally Lemmy. It just is itself. Creating a “Conservative Land” like some Disney park, intentionally, and trying to “if I build it they will come” it into existence?

            That’s just odd behavior. Anyone can do it if they like. And if they aren’t offensive I daresay they won’t be defederated. But the aliases bother me, and I think defederation may come because of that. Certainly using SatansMaggotyCumFart (man, I hate that that’s now going to be a spelling suggestion).

              SPECIALLY if they are names that already belong to people. Double bullshit there.

              I haven’t done that though.

              Copying section from end of my reply to here for people who don’t want to read it all:

              The parody account of me, copying my username was made several days ago. The SatansMaggotyCumFart parody was just made around the time of this fucking post. The dates are right there in the profiles.

              And the Satans parody uses the same exact wording in the profile as the parody of mine. AND the guy is STILL posting to my communities. I haven’t banned him yet, because I don’t care. But you fucking lying about this is suspicious as hell.

              Dude, you got some more info you wanna share with this thread? Doesn’t seem you are being fully transparent here.


              Let me get this straight. So someone has created parody accounts of me. And that’s fine with you. Someone created parody account of SatansMaggotyCumFart, and you automatically think I did it?

              This sounds super sus to me. Why would it be ok for someone to make parody accounts of me. But not anyone else. And if it is done for someone else, you blame me?

              Also, you never mentioned this in your first comments in this thread about me, nor the OP post.

              This sounds super suspicious to me. Not only that, but the dude modified the original graphics used from my profile. And used the wording that is opposite of everything in my profile.

              AND I pointed this out and did a screen cap. Yet YOU all of a sudden are saying, “Oh look! He copied SatansMaggotyCumFart name.” Which I haven’t done. And I have no reason to, because as you said, I have multiple alts of my own name.

              So why don’t you throw all this down right here in this thread so everyone can see?

              Why is someone copying me never mentioned, but you are trying to blame me copying some SatansMaggotyCumFart all of a sudden. And it was done right around the time this OP was made?!

              The parody account of me, copying my username was made several days ago. The SatansMaggotyCumFart parody was just made around the time of this fucking post. The dates are right there in the profiles.

              Dude, you got some more info you wanna share with this thread? Doesn’t seem you are being fully transparent here.

              I’d like the admin of these instances to look into this matter. You can call me an asshole troll all you want. But I haven’t ever lied.

              Here’s the parody account of me, that I originally posted and that I requested get banned. And it DID get banned finally:

            And I appreciate you saying that. Read the whole thread. You’ll find yourself in the minority when it comes to your banning opinion.

            Now as for sad and lonely, then again, I’d argue that there is nothing to fear by having me be here.

            Also for context, I’m retired early, I’m fit and healthy with a gf and a social life that is more active than I would prefer. There is nothing sad or lonely about my life.

            I like the idea of Lemmy. I like posting on Lemmy. And I think all points of view (as long as legal) should be allowed.

            I don’t take any of this shit seriously though. lmao I even have a selfie on my slrpnk instance of my name in a workout community I started.

            The other people in this thread need to take shit less seriously though. lol
