I get past a few posts in all and then it’s just him posting in political communities.
Half of his stuff is downvoted
How do I stop seeing this? Is there way for blocking particular user to not see their posts?
From what I’ve gathered from others who’ve been bothered by them, they are a ‘tankie’ who fantasises about communism and thinks China is still a communist state. That they do so while living in a western democracy using all the tools of freedom of expression is an irony that’s lost on them
they also twist themselves into knots defending Russia’s illegal invasion of Ukraine. Any attempt to engage in discussion with them is met with literally every logical fallacy in the book, along with insults, bullying, and dogpiling from other tankies that seemingly (and suspiciously) appear out of nowhere.
they’re extremely toxic.
My most upvoted comment on Lemmy so far is calling him one lol. I think it’s just that it feels like an anti-West “propaganda” account more so than an actual person and normally do not actually provide thoughtful unbiased looks into things without using whataboutism.

i’m glad there are some people willing to be anti-anti-NATO 🤔 brave of you
I wouldn’t even call them communist, they just post pro-China propaganda. They’re furthering the agenda of a specific government, not an economic ideal.
I just blocked them soon after joining so I don’t have to see the braindead posts/comments they keep submitting.
He’s terrible. Yes you can
How come Yogthos is all over my Hot page with months-old posts though? Is tankie-ism the secret to blazing hot posts months in the future?
maybe post better

He’s actually a nice enough guy
not if their comment history is anything to go by— insulting, hostile, and combative comments, many of which are heavily-downvoted (except on lemmgrad.ml, which is an echo-chamber for tankies).

Maybe you should keep your guard up instead of going around asking for “porn instances” and complaining about Asian countries 24/7 lmfao.
lmfao
How very sweet and empathetic of you. Really. And you’re probably right, to some extent.
Regardless, it’s really no excuse for their behavior.

I look forward to seeing you develop an inferiority complex around my posts as well

how sad. it’s been 2 weeks, and you let something like this still bother you. clearly, I’m not the one with the “complex"
what a weird response. I’m doing post necromancy?? who cares. 💀 Someone linked me to this. I “came out of nowhere”, like everyone does on the internet.
your psychobabble is corrosive to the fediverse and is repugnant to me & anyone who cares about freedom of information.
yogthos & SeventyTwoTrillion & other power-posters are like “seeders” on a torrent, whereas you are a “leecher” on a torrent. people like them are the lifeblood of niche platforms like lemmy. they are self-curating content aggregation machines. instead of trying to muzzle people you disagree with because engaging with them went south, disengage and post something contrary. you are trying to bring friction and conflict to lemmy.
you may as well be paid by Zuckerberg or Google to be here to destroy an open source project.
interesting rationalization for your toxic, rage-bait ramblings. I recommend you consult a medical professional, as they would be better-equipped to help you with your… problems…
best of luck!

I like how you guys think that him posting a lot of informative links is a sign of mental illness.
But stalking his account, trying to “get his guard down”, and fantasizing about him in a nasty, passive aggressive, parasocial way, that’s all normal and good for you.
Are you sure you’re not a little addicted to propaganda yourselves? Why are you attacking him like he is your mom trying to take away your bong?
link?
mass shootings are a decidedly right wing phenomenon. this goes back to columbine. dummy
if you think you can just make hostile replies to someone who posts things you dislike and call them mentally ill for repaying you in kind, what would that say about your own behavior 😂
i guess you miss reddit already huh? want to post about how tencent is censoring the tiananmen square massacre posts?

Ah I guess I’m a school shooter now too?

In Jerboa, click the triple dots by the post, and then click “block [username]”.
Speaking as a Lemmygrad guy. He’s a Lemmygrad power poster. I honestly don’t know how the guy does it. Not only does he have the articles, he’s got the sources to back up his claims in the comments. It’s truly admirable. I’d love to meet him sometime.
While most Socialists let Reactionaries shame them into silence, Yogthos posts the truth despite negative criticism.
they spam several top communities with Russian and Chinese propaganda - often from dubious sources - and instigate hostile, combative arguments in the comments. when others point out that it’s just propaganda, they respond with more hostility and more propaganda. a quick look through their post history shows a clear pattern of toxic abuse towards anyone who disagrees with them.
that’s nothing to admire.

Yes lemmy is full of evil tankies seeseepee bots and their evil propaganda. You should never read any, it’s forbidden. Please go back to 100 wholesome keanu reddit.
