Putting ideology (“voting legitimizes the illegitimate authority”) over pragmatism is goofy IMO. Like, whether you view the state as legitimate or not, in the here-and-now it exists and has power, giving up your influence because you don’t like it is counterproductive.

Also this post reeks of Sovereign Citizen nonsense, “I do not consent to being ruled” okay well you are, might as well have a say in the rules.

I suspect that there are people who make a habit of targeting particular “anti-tankie” or anti-troll users who are in a role of authority

Sure, those people probably exist, but also “anti-tankie” is an extremely common position so you’d expect there to be more “victims” if that is what they are being targeted for. It’s far more likely that PJ is instead just an insufferable person who makes bad posts and comments, and therefore there are many people that don’t like them. PJ hasn’t even been accused of transphobia or zionism in this thread, so I think your theory is pretty widely off mark.

but I suspect that the personal innuendos about PugJesus in this thread and their popularity in the voting mean that the overall bullying effort is working pretty well

Or, perhaps, they are just not liked for reasons other than politics.

You literally asked for our help though

Back again with the nonsense, begone troll.

Because you are a troll and I’m not engaging. You are clearly a very sad person desperate for interaction judging by how you are up and down this thread replying to people with debatebro nonsense. You are not worth the receipts.

aww fuck he got me

silence troll, you are wrong again

If someone who doesn’t like metal music enters !metal@lemmy.world and downvotes every post there

See, that’s not what is happening, I’m not against the concept of the community, I think they are poor quality submissions for that community.

That’s pretty ridiculous, obviously one can want to see an uncurated list while still judging the value of individual items, that’s not mutually exclusive.

Your “contributions” to mass downvote every post in that community (as you seem to freely admit doing?)

No, I downvoted the 5-12 posts that were placed in front of me because they were submitted within hours of each other and therefore were shown sequentially.

The Threadiverse needs MOAR content, not less

Disagree, it needs better content, not more. You can upvote every post if you want, no one else is obliged to.

If not troll, then why behave like troll? Well, now you know.

Voting on content is not trolling, it is a base mechanic of the platform. Are you trolling? You sure seem to be behaving like it

Also, you lied. You were corrected that “my frontpage” (emphasis my own) is NOT the same thing as the “All” feed

Yes, I addressed that, and that’s not lying either way.

(Edit: you also seemed to attempt a deliberate spread of misinformation by stating how you did not post or comment, while ignoring your mass contributions across many existing posts by other people.)

Voting is not posting or commenting.

Seems like you think any opinion you don’t like is a lie or a troll, trolling confirmed. Now you know 🥴

I’m not, I was viewing all. Sorry, “my frontpage” is probably misleading, I meant the all page on my device.

I do, but I also like going on all to see what is out there. Unfortunately it can get buried when the same person is spamming a dozen submissions in a couple hours.

You’re weird, I stated a fact about what was said. If you’re so desperate for interaction, take it up with the person who said it.

Nobody said reverse racism

Am I still gonna watch the porn. Well yeah, probably

You’re the problem then, stop giving those videos views.

Time to stare at the sun

Yeah but I would have to bootstrap myself on Android first to get an ios devkit :(

Although I have also considered cornering the Mac gaming market for basically the same reasons

A dream of mine is to make good mobile games, no ads, just a single low purchase. Realistically it just wouldn’t be economically viable at all unless there is a free version with ads. But also realistically most mobile gamers aren’t using a controller and touchscreens suck.

Ancient One and Scarlet Witch

That’s because woman

I think everyone is equally fucked/blessed in that scenario
