Friend, you are gonna get in trouble for saying that around here! lol
Fuck tha haters. You all do great work on the instance!
I bid $1,000 on it. But that was my max. So out of my league now.
What misinformation am I spreading? Articles from ap news and Reuters are misinformation now?
Ohhh, wait, you mean they are articles you don't like. Be sure not to clink on the links to read them then.
Thanks, friend!!
Meh, I actually don't take Lemmy very seriously. I'm a retired dude that thinks it's interesting. I fuck around on here until I decide what to do with my day.
It's not my identity though, so not tiring for me at all. I think some of the nerds here are WAY too invested in what gets posted on a little-known online forum.
It's fun and all, but I don't think it's very important to real life at all lol
Thanks, amiko!!
Do you roll out the red carpet for them and explicitly say you are helping them?
Nope. And I haven't done that for Trump either.
I DID say that for the Socialist Workers Party tho, and I'm setting up a local office in my city for them.
I'm not supporting anything of the sort. I am posting links to news articles that are published by major news orgs. I don't write the articles, and I've never said I support everything in the articles.
If you post an article by AP News or Reuters about someone who hates Luigi, does that mean you subscribe to that point of view?
I also post news about earthquakes and ufo's and tornado's. Does that mean I support all of these things?
I post news articles that I think are interesting.
If I were a conservative, then why wouldn't I just say that?
People are already annoyed by me. I already have calls to ban me. So admitting I am a conservative wouldn't change any of that.
In other words, I have no reason to lie.
And even if I were conservative, there is no law or rule against that. Trump won the election. Does that mean the US is full of nazis? No.
There are already thousands of anti-trump articles on Lemmy. Me posting ones few that don't paint him in an unflattering light isn't going to end the world.
Now having said all that, you are certainly welcome to disagree with me and block me. I have no issue with that. I am merely defending myself against false accusations.
I also created and mod community for Socialist Workers Party--who I voted for in the election by the way. I also host a mastadon account for them and an x.com account for them. And I have had my views published in their paper. So by your argument that I post things that I must agree with, then that means I agree with Socialism. Correct?
Thanks, friend!
Actually I am a socialist. To be totally accurate: a libertarian socialist.
Thanks, friend! :)
Yep!
Thanks, friend!
I have no reason to block ya. I rarely block someone just because they may have different political views. I respect diversity of opinion.
And I like you.
Thanks, friend!
and trying to figure out your actual views is probably what is pissing some folks off
Why should someone's political views "piss someone folks off"? If there is no racism or bigotry or anything illegal involved, is shouldn't piss anyone off. You guys take Lemmy WAY too seriously. But of course, you are welcome to block.
I don’t think you should be banned, but I don’t need to interact with someone helping to spread pro-trump messaging.
I appreciate your honesty. Especially in these times. I respect and support your right to disregard me and move on.
And bruh, I gotta follow your example and save me a folder of quips!
Thanks, mate!
So this doesn't get lost deep in the thread. In the thread, OP is accusing me of using someone else's name. Saying how terrible I am for it.
This is a section of my reply to him. Which of course he refuses to comment on:
The parody account of me, copying my username was made several days ago. The SatansMaggotyCumFart parody that you are falsely accusing me of 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.
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?!
Here’s the "parody account" of me (really just a bad imposter), that I requested get banned. And it DID get banned finally just today. Notice the wording is the EXACT OPPOSITE of my real profile and it's also the wording used on other people's fake profiles. It has been up for several days:
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:

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?

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:
Hey! I resemble that remark.
Great post! I consider myself a “libertarian socialist," but most on Lemmy doesn't know what that is, so I just say socialist.
And friend, I have been burned at this stake many times! lol
Fair point! I have just spent all day arguing against people trying to get me banned from the fediverse. So I guess I left the blinders on.
In this very sub, there was a post yesterday: "TrumpsTruth, Conservatism, TheNewDonald, what's happening on this instance? Is this a thing?"
And it's around 60 comments of people telling me how much they hate me, and calling out admins to ban me! So my joke was mostly to them. And a few months before that a thread, "TrumpsTruth, Conservatism, TheNewDonald, what's happening on this instance? Is this a thing?"
I spend so much time being yelled at that I forget that I'm actually not that well-known. It come because from comments of, "Everyone hates you!" and "Your name is everywhere."
Good to know that it's not everywhere. Maybe then they can shut up about how I have ruined the Fediverse and should be banned..
Thanks for calling me out. Edited.
I actually don't know what that means. Break it down for me?
Put my bid in. Man, lots of people on Lemmy hate me already...just imagine when I own hexbear!!!!
