The post claimed that the president is hoping the tariffs will force the Federal Reserve to slash interest rates, allowing it to cheaply refinance trillions of dollars worth of US debt.
I’ve dealt with that on another site. It kills all the fun. Easier to just spin up an alt than to continue to deal with it. Plus it’s just good internet safety, keeps you from getting doxzed
Wow, turns out that some clues may point to your friend, PapaSkwat@lemy.lol, being involved with the ‘Nicole, Fediverse Chick’ spam. And people are saying that the spam looks like some type of revenge situation. Spamming different pics of her and putting her info out there because the spammer is trying to get personal revenge on her or something.
As soon as admins started looking into it, and putting together clues, PapaSwat@lemy.lol deleted his account. Pretty suspicious.
Well, it definitely fits his M.O. since he stalked me and took glee in trying to get me to “snap” (his word choice).
Seems like the poor fellow really was an unhinged stalker. Just like I figured he was. Guess he overstepped his bounds arranging for his spambots to follow me around and try to downvote everything. Because it ended up getting them closer to catching him.
Guess I’m not really the bad guy on Lemmy after all.
Vote manipulation is bad thing for Lemmy, not just me personally. If they were allowed to do that to me, then it could be used against non-controversial users as well.
Disliking someone and downvoting them is totally fine. Creating bots to stalk and do it in order to make a point, is not fine.
Yeah, he does. He’s stalked me under lots of names. I’m still not leaving Lemmy though, so don’t worry. :)
I know how caring you are and I know ya wouldn’t want me to be bullied off of Lemmy, so I know it makes ya feel good that I’m never going to leave Lemmy.
He just got banned from this community because his comments were getting more and more aggressive and weird.
And it didn’t stop me, and I know you’d be happy to know that. You’ve always been so kind, supportive, and unjudgmental towards me. Especially when you would say “Thanks, friend!”
So I was just returning the thanks for all of your support. I’m not going anywhere and people like you make me even more determined not to go anywhere.
Yeah, some guys just can’t adjust well to real life, so they live through trolling. He doesn’t bother me and he definitely won’t make me snap or quit Lemmy. But he’s definitely a troll and people should see it and ban/block accordingly.
I’m not the only one he stalks. He just happens to be really obsessed about me.
Very unhealthy. Seems like a mental condition where he can’t let go of things. Hopefully with medication and therapy he can get the help he needs.
I know how caring you are for the mentally ill, so maybe you could help him? Your heart is always in the right place and you always want to help people who falter into that type of mental illness. :)

Oh, he has the alt thing all figured out

Actually looks like that user really was up to no good. And not just because he stalked me.
Seems he may have been taken part in creating/using a downvoting bot army. Not cool.
Someone uncovered a downvote manipulation scheme that was being used on my posts.
And now PapaSkwat@lemy.lol vanished and/or has been removed from Lemmy.

Won’t engage. You are an admitted troll trying to get people to snap.
