There is a recent desant of Russian trolls attacking Ukraine, with some of them even blatantly saying they support Putin and some others trying to put into doubt evidence of Russian crimes (kidnapping children etc.)

I have been banned from world by @little_cow@lemmy.world for calling one of them out. Also both of my comments, the one in the screenshot and another one where I explain to another user that he is arguing with paid Russian troll have been removed.

Accusing a user of being a paid troll account is against the rules in most instances, even if you somehow have strong evidence for it.

It's an unfalsifiable claim and is frequently used as a way to harass another user over a disagreement.

YDI.

    YDI

    Clear violation of the rules regardless of whether they are a paid troll or not. It doesnt matter.

    Use the report button next time.

    The community rules:

    • Rule 5 - Keep it Civil - It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative).

    You deserved it, you broke the community rules by accusing someone of being a bad faith actor, which isn't nice.

    Looks like YDI. Badjacketing like that only breeds paranoia

    YDI, you broke the rules. Not everyone you disagree with is paid.

    How ignorant and close minded are you to post this...

    You disagree with someone over an inherently subjective topic and then harrass them. So the mods ban you. Then you proceed to do the same to the mod by posting this.

    No one is allowed to have a different opinion than you?

    Omg he got banned due to my report lol

    For anyone who bothers to read this, @FelixCress@lemmy.world harrassed me for difference in opinion about geopolitical issues. He then proceeded to harass me by following me around and downvoting all my comments and replied to my comments which didn't involve him. He also used multiple accounts/community (which he admitted to) which then did the same.

    I also reported his comments. But mainly since I was checking his profile as I recall agreeing with me on a few topics. Broken clock and what not.

    He has so many posts in this community. Looks like he is used to getting banned and then throwing a hissy fit.

    Is it possible to check other user's mod log?

    If you click on the 3 dots below a post or a comment, there is a mod log. $USER moderation history is what you want.

    I temporarily banned you for violating the rules of the community more then once

    Please use this time to reflect, read, and pray for you have clearly lost your way

    News communities are very important to the discussion of events which impact many people lives

    When you make these sort of comments the quality of the post is degraded

    In addition the rules are clear for all to read

    I will pray for the malice which poisons your heart against the fellow man to leave your body and mind

    Since you are here mod, make sure to check how he brigades others (or maybe his alt accounts) to downvote and comment on a single target. He has admitted that he posts my content to other communities for such behaviour (the comment has since been deleted by mods). I have some names but I don’t want to take names without proof.
