Ayo I'm in the screenshot letsa fucking GOOOOOOOOOO-

For context, Bungiefan_ak has no fewer than 4 alts that I've seen (all on different instances with the same username) and has spent his time on !memes@lemmy.ml continuously spamming heavily transphobic, homophobic, and objectifying sexist "memes". Just about every one of his alts is now banned but I'm sure more will pop up.

Now, why the fuck he cares so much about pirates at this point, I haven't a clue....

[–] mp3@lemmy.ca 90 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (2 children)

There's likely going to be more

[–] empireOfLove@lemmy.one 41 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

Doing the lord's work. What a shitfest of a modlog, real winner this guy is

Edit: dear God he keeps MAKING MORE. This dude seriously needs to get a life or something

[–] mp3@lemmy.ca 5 points 1 year ago

I'll keep an eye out, and I sort everything by new anyway.

[–] reddthat@reddthat.com 12 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (3 children)

Yeah we banned them on reddthat 2 days ago. I'm glad to see I'm not an outlier. Initially we should a 7 day ban should suffice. But then that user decided to message the admin directly and insult them.

Probably the fastest way to get your account banned.

Edit: The message in question. 👀 (Attempted spoiler open if you dare)

I believe the spoiler tag is the following on Lemmy

Wwwow that's some offensive bullshit

[–] user224@lemmy.sdf.org 67 points 1 year ago (4 children)

Maybe he just likes to argue with people. I have 1 such classmate. His "opinions" are always just opposite to who he's talking with. But apparently outside of school he's normal.

[–] theneverfox@pawb.social 2 points 1 year ago

I love arguing with people, I'll even argue points I don't necessarily believe, but that's not the same as trolling. The difference is doing it in good faith

Trolls aren't trying to convince anyone or engage in debate, they're in it to russle jimmies, own the libs, or whatever. There's not really an intellectual aspect to it, it's arguing on emotion

Probably because one of his alts was on dbzer0 and was banned for transphobia

[–] empireOfLove@lemmy.one 36 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Oh. Oh that makes so much more sense. His sad little idea of vengeance is to now attack anything piracy related and get dbzero ostracized from LW just because pirates have more morals than he does lol

[–] faintedheart@lemm.ee 4 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (4 children)

Out of curiosity, just someone not supporting trans people or lgbtq are getting banned or they are taking asshole behaviour and spewing hate speech?

Edit: good fucking world. I am not against lgbtq. I am supporting it. I am a bi curious guy. I am all in for their civil rights. I was asking a question about why that guy was banned. For asshole behaviour or just having a different opinion. I don't believe just for telling someone doesn't care about lgbtq is not a reason for ban.

[–] gabe@literature.cafe 42 points 1 year ago

If not supporting means you feel that we don't deserve civil rights then yeah they should be banned

[–] 14th_cylon@lemm.ee 39 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

is "not supporting someone" your newspeak for being asshole? because i am pretty sure that any group of people doesn't give a flying fuck about you or anyone else not "supporting them", just let them be and they will be happy.

[–] uriel238@lemmy.blahaj.zone 0 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

My experience is that when someone discovered they need certain civil rights but don't have them, often staring down thr barrels of police service pistols, then yes, they give all the flying fucks in the universe about being supported.

This is one of those reasons that Leopards Ate My Face is a known trope and community. Sadly, the ones who empathize already have their share of leopard teeth marked scars.

Given I and many people I know are not going to survive genocide in the US, if ever it goes full post-Wannsee, I have little patience for anyone who does not stand at least against the transnational white power movement (aka the white Christian nationalist movement). That includes even conservatives who wish the GOP would less extreme like in the Nixon and Reagan years. That train was always going to inevitably lead to the political crisis in the US, today.

[–] 14th_cylon@lemm.ee 1 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

you missed my point and you wrote three angry paragraphs about it, good for you! 🤣

My experience is that

my experience is that when someone tries to put inequality sign between being an asshole and "not supporting them", he is trying to make an excuse for being an asshole.

what do you even mean by "supporting them"? do you bring them food and your old clothes every sunday or something? how do you express on the internet that you "don't support" someone/something?

when i am indifferent to a topic, whatever that topic is, i don't feel the need to go on the internet and express that indifference. when i talk about something, it is either because i am for or against it. so when you are being called for being an asshole, you weren't just "not supporting them", whoever them is in the context, you were probably an asshole and now you are trying to mask it.

(to prevent further confusion - i am aware you are not the person i originally replied to, so any "you" in this text is just a figure of speech)

[–] empireOfLove@lemmy.one 7 points 1 year ago

Well, there's a pretty wide spectrum in "not supporting". Can range between "cool bro, not my thing but you do you just leave me out of it", which is a rational albeit reserved response.... or you could be like Bungiefan, who spams memes calling transgender people pedophiles (multiple times).

[–] EremesZorn 5 points 1 year ago

The guy posts anti-LGBT memes everywhere. He's one of these losers that likes to use "cuck" in his comments. I'd ban on that alone. Hell, I'd ban anyone for being a Trump supporter or a tankie. Then again, that's why I'm not a mod, never was, and shouldn't be.

[–] db2@sopuli.xyz 39 points 1 year ago (1 children)

The troll doesn't care, at all. It got banned clearly or it would be trolling here directly, it's retaliation. Child psychology will tell you everything you'd need to know about that "user".

[–] Tetsuo@jlai.lu 25 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Maybe we shouldn't feed that troll ?

I think in that case a shadowban would be the best way to do it. Or an IP ban if that's possible.

In any case this is giving him even more reason to keep on harassing people for attention.

[–] Landrin201@lemmy.ml 8 points 1 year ago

An entire instance just fed the troll, pretty sure the cats out of the bag on this one...

[–] ptz@dubvee.org 31 points 1 year ago (2 children)

These are the alts, counts, scores, and ban status my instance is aware of:

Well that's a record, not a single positive score in sight from any of the accounts

[–] Gsus4@feddit.nl 7 points 1 year ago (1 children)

16 comments, 512 downvotes 🥲

Quite the sense of pride and accomplishment this Bungie fan must be feeling, huh

[–] WarmSoda@lemm.ee 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Trekkies don't fuck around apparently.

[–] ptz@dubvee.org 8 points 1 year ago

We do not 😂

[–] Risk@feddit.uk 19 points 1 year ago (1 children)

For context, Bungiefan_ak has no fewer than 4 alts that I've seen (all on different instances with the same username)

I mean, this is one of the benefits of the lemmyverse - using the same username across different instances. It's not subversive.

That's not to lend a defence of this guy - just didn't want having Lemmy alts presented as a bad thing.

[–] Varyag@lemm.ee 24 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Having Lemmy alts is not a bad thing. Using them to circumvent bans very much is, tho.

[–] empireOfLove@lemmy.one 11 points 1 year ago

At least he makes them super easy to find by reusing the identical name lol

[–] 14th_cylon@lemm.ee 17 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

that guy is the most succesfull troll in history. he single-handedly created havoc that big that russian trollfarm wouldn't have to be ashamed for and you continue to give him audience. just ban him and move on.

[–] paralyze@lemmy.basedcount.com 10 points 1 year ago

That's so funny, I'm just waiting when lemmy .world will defederate .ml and beehaw because of them.

[–] style99@kbin.social 14 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I reported that mother fucker. Scum like him are easy to spot and clean up.

[–] empireOfLove@lemmy.one 3 points 1 year ago

As did I, multiple times.

[–] TvanBuuren@feddit.nl 6 points 1 year ago (1 children)

How do you people find these alts. I scroll by, like or don't, but I have no idea if they are related.

Do you guys have a 7th sense or something?

[–] mp3@lemmy.ca 16 points 1 year ago (1 children)

He's using the same username on different instances, not the sharpest tool in the shed.

[–] TvanBuuren@feddit.nl 6 points 1 year ago

That's kinda a giveaway.

[–] HellAwaits@lemm.ee 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

And yet you just yeeted all this attention to the troll, so congrats. You got played.

letsa fucking GOOOOOOOOOO-

[–] empireOfLove@lemmy.one 3 points 1 year ago

I wasnt the one who chose to repost the screenshot, I just call trolls as I see them
