He also posted about being happily married; there’s really no way to know the truth about a serial liar like UM.
Although he has serious “50-something-divorced-guy” energy. If I had to guess, his kids and ex hate him for being a right-wing scumbag and this is how he takes out his anger.
The only thing we need to guess, impo, is he’s in serious mh crisis and pushing him toward suicide or mass shooting isn’t a solution. Ignore or block should leave him the option of seeking professional help or spiralling of his own doing, not ours.
It also leaves open the option to keep being a racist, transphobic, fascist troll though, which will leave the door open to becoming a Nazi bar.
I understand where you’re coming from, but it’s not my responsibility to play nice with the people who are attacking the people I love and those like them.
Trolls should be made to feel unwelcome until they change their behavior.
We disagree. Unless we’re moderators, it’s not our job and focusing on other’s demons too much means we’re ignoring our own. Something about the abyss staring back, but that’s the beauty of the fediverse. Just like you don’t get to tell me what to do, I don’t get to tell you. I would only urge you to do some soul -searching and follow your best impulses, while waiting to serve the worst or questionable. There are other options such as utilizing block/report.
But I don’t want to see Lemmy turn into a trash site like Reddit, where the worst and loudest are free to harass, provoke, and lie without consequences.
This user has literally dozens of alts he uses to get around bans, so I don’t see unilateral disarmament as a way to keep this particular fascist in check.

Sure, if that’s what works for you.

That’s fair. Practicable solutions seem to be somewhere between severity and mercy, in my estimation.
Thanks for voicing an alternate opinion, I really do value other perspectives.
You’re welcome and thank you, too. What about ip block ban?
My concern is for avoidable loss of human life. Not that it is avoidable, just that I would appreciate mitigation of foreseeable consequences.
I don’t think that’s a thing on Lemmy yet, and I imagine would have to be done per instance so they could just jump around to different spots.
Kind words. But misplaced. I’m not in crisis. Still good words though and people should listen to you. Just not about me.
I’ve never attacked anyone. Please post any proof that I advocate violence in any form. I’m a socialist.
