He generally shows most of the signs of the misinformation accounts:

  • Wants to repeatedly tell basically the same narrative and nothing else
  • Narrative is fundamentally false
  • Not interested in any kind of conversation or in learning that what he’s posting is backwards from the values he claims to profess

I also suspect that it’s not a coincidence that this is happening just as the Elon Musks of the world are ramping up attacks on Wikipedia, specially because it is a force for truth in the world that’s less corruptible than a lot of the others, and tends to fight back legally if someone tries to interfere with the free speech or safety of its editors.

Anyway, YSK. I reported him as misinformation, but who knows if that will lead to any result.

Edit: Number of people real salty that I’m talking about this: Lots

    It’s not even remotely isolated to “Western politicians”… I spent 4 months battling on a few articles, and it turns out, I wasted many hours with a troll farm ran by the CCP…

    I’ve also wasted many hours on reps from the Church of Scientology, NY State Police, SCO Group, the GOP of Arkansas, and the Dem Committee in Nevada.

    Any state or corporation you can think of has been trying to attack WP like this.
