There's a transphobic troll and self-identifying fascist who is posting on our instance and went so far as to create communities, including one dedicated to being transphobic. Could we get some action on this guy?

Edit to add: The user in question is "ashton1593" and the communities that they have created.

You will likely get a much faster response by emailing membership@sdf.org directly. There is also abuse@sdf.lonestar.org — you can refer to the abuse page for details.

mastodon.sdf.org/@SDF and social.sdf.org/@SDF are the Mastodon accounts.

I have emailed them and I know of at least one person that tooted about it. We do need to raise a reasonable amount of fuss here.

I've reached out via mastodon albeit privately

[–] jawa21@lemmy.sdf.org 22 points 1 month ago (3 children)

Which user? DM me if needed. SDF seems to be most responsive on Mastodon. You might try there.

Much appreciated. I can never remember who to bug on the unix comms. It's ashton1593

They also, potentially, have a series of alts and sockpuppets they may also be using.

I'm sorry that I keep spamming comments here, but I made a post to let a wider Lemmy audience know.

No apologies needed! I'm just happy that my fellow SDF folks are on the same page here.

[–] xmanmonk@lemmy.sdf.org 9 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Maybe post the username and community names?

[–] nickwitha_k@lemmy.sdf.org 12 points 1 month ago

Edited to add them. Pretty much every community that they've created is problematic in content or purpose, beyond them being a self-identifying fascist.

Is anyone an admin of an instance? Those doenvotes here should be checked for possible alts.

Anyone have an mbin account… that would also show who’s who.

I've been saying for a while now, downvotes are a tool of the oppressor.
