wasn’t this guy a genocidejoespam maximoleftismist before the election?
Yes. Claimed that he was a socialist, not a republican, etc.
And here we are.
Just another liar.
Block the instance, move on.
Even if this person is a troll, setting up all of these communities and making multiple posts all across the place to audience of none is pretty fucking sad. I mean, look at this:
This person actually spent time typing all of this as if they’re speaking to all of their close friends. And two days later there it still is with the one default upvote and no comments.
In fact, this is making me literally sad for this person now. They probably need professional help.
i reckon monk thinks they’re trolling. they certainly think they’re doing something.
it is uniquely sad to watch though, like an injured animal snapping at it’s only hope for assistance.
It occurs to me that this could be corporate or even governmental.
Otherwise it’s a lot of time and thought going into nothing or at best a long game. Very sad.
This is automated, not even that hard to code. More so if done in an separate instance. Also not hard to detect and autoban in theory on regular instances.
Lemmy needs a decentralized reputation system where all the big instances score people automatically so the fakes don’t appear at all.
Hard to do in a manner that is resistant to gaming by bad actors (see: Reddit).
If darknet markets can do it, so can we. I’m a distributed systems security specialist. This is existing technology. We would require something like spamhouse etc. Everybody can run an email sever, but building reputation takes a bit. Blockchain can do some parts of that to make it auditable.
Not my area of expertise, so, I’d defer to those such as yourself. I absolutely think it’s possible but, not simple to do in a resilient manner. Even with a publicly auditable ledger, there’s a risk of becoming realistically unauditable due to massive quantity of data (as seen in some open source projects), which would need mitigations.
If you have any recommended readings or the like on such things, I’d appreciate them.
Universal Monk? Why does that name sound familiar? Is that one of those Trump trolls that was around pretending to be a leftist to depress dem turn out? If so: called it.
Yes
Fucking called it! And can i take the opportunity to just say; fuck .world and their mods, c/politics mods in particular. Man it’s nice to look back and be completely proven right. That dude is guaranteed to be at least two different people as well!
Lemmy.world needs to get with times and institute a “no fascists” rule that autobans American conservatives.
TrumpsTruth
