This user is going completely crazy, but not in a funny way. They deserve an account wide ban. How do I even report this?

yeah it's ... pretty clear they're a troll account--but also quite possibly running smokescreen for Schrodinger's Racist: Whoever is operating this account, they'll hide behind the excuse that it's a "parody" or "just a prank bro". This is likely just their attempt to shift the overton window of the spaces in which the account is operating rightward so that lesser racist and fascist activity doesn't seem 'as bad'.

i expect they're using at least one VPN proxy so that the forcible excision of this account is less likely to trace back to them.

edit: oh shit. it just occurred to me that this may in fact be an impersonation-based character assassination.

The profile is linking back to other social media accounts under the same name, but it's entirely possible that the account is not actually who they say they are, and are acting as disgusting and repugnant as possible so as to 'expose' the REAL person for views and opinions they may not even actually have.
