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?
In Jerboa, click the triple dots by the post, and then click “block [username]”.
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
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 actually a nice enough guy, but he has a rose-colored glasses when it comes to China and the CPC. As someone who worked at China Daily, I assumed he works for state media! He said he doesn’t but he hoped to go to China someday.
Given how often he posts, I’m a little concerned about his mental health, but maybe this is what keeps him sane. Better than shooting people in a mall, that’s for sure!
I’d actually like to meet the guy and have a cup of coffee
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).
