Its a shame because they’re prominent voice on lemmy. Good on the admins for not tolerating this. I don’t understand the point of targeting a person you don’t like on the internet just because they said something that upset you and spamming their post with downvotes. If you don’t like someone block their ass and be done with it. I agree with the perspective that its harassment (and an incredibly petty ineffective form of it at that)

    Radlib is when you want to abolish capitalism, and the more you want to abolish capitalism, the more radlib you are.

      Abusive is when people stack up two hundred and thirteen comments freaking out about what a terrible person you are and insulting you personally, and you start replying to them

        These are battered posters here, subjected to my relentless cruelty of downvotes for repeating shitty unsubstantiated slander and defending myself from easily disproven accusations that I can back with literal screenshots (which is honestly not something I often have the pleasure of doing). Press F to pay respects.

          They’re the real victims here. After all, someone ambushed them and started talking about politics, which they have clearly specified in their profiles as something they don’t consent to speaking or hearing about.

          Don’t even get me started on the idea of someone doing moderation about a political topic. On Lemmy.
