I know they’ve always been on Lemmy, but it seems like the past few weeks it’s slowly increasing, making me want to just stay on beehaw /local. Showing up on more communities, even on instances that ban that type of trolling explicitly.

Anyone else notice this?

Note: When I’m saying Tankie here, I’m not referring to far leftists, socialists, anti-capitalists, etc. I’m talking about trolls that act leftist but their actual intent is to cause infighting and support authoritarian regimes. Sealioning, all that stuff.

    Yep. They come in waves whenever there’s a hot-button issue happening. Same thing as all the RWNJs. They away their programming and then hit the message boards/forums with their up-to-date-rhetoric.
