Its a shame because they're prominent voice on lemmy. Good on the admins for not tolerating this. I don't understand the point of targeting a person you don't like on the internet just because they said something that upset you and spamming their post with downvotes. If you don't like someone block their ass and be done with it. I agree with the perspective that its harassment (and an incredibly petty ineffective form of it at that)

The guy denied sexual assault by Hamas during Oct 7, got upset when I called him out for it, and then immediately downvoted a bunch of anti-fascist posts, for which I banned him from the comm that he did it in. In that thread, for that matter, there are all sorts of people falsely calling me a transphobe and saying I refuse to use neopronouns.
Man, you definitely were running some major hostility towards world at one point. I'll concede that the comment was probably overstating the point, and definitely unnecessarily hostile, but it also wasn't unprovoked.
He was also involved in the 196 forced migration attempt: https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/post/35965565?scrollToComments=true

Man, I will be the first to admit I'm abrasive and do a hell of a lot more than 'post about cool stuff and chat', but my only involvement in the 196 migration was that when the mods did move (or try to move) 196, months after I'd stopped using Blahaj entirely, I started using it on .world.
