For like 5 months leading up to the last American presidential election, UM was spreading anti-democrat and pro Jill Stein propaganda, while actually shilling for Trump pretty transparently. They were a troll who loved upsetting people but finally got banned for it right before the election. JordanLund, the .world mod, really seemed to be shielding the troll but it seemed like so many people wanted him banned that they finally caved and did it after he harassed users in DMs. That wasn’t their first time harassing in DMs. I’d let them know they’d done the same to me more than once before that and I was basically ignored

There is no story. And I haven’t been banned from “everywhere.” Those two posters (and most of Lemmy) are mad because last year I voted third party in the US election.

Back then, many on Lemmy thought that if you didn’t support the Democratic Party, then you were a russian spy working for Trump. People legit accused me of living in Russia, being paid with russian bitcoin (to post on lemmy! WTF?! lol), and trying to get Trump elected. All because I posted news articles about third parties.

Several posters tracked me, one actually wrote a program to track me and the times I posted in order to “prove” I was “russian.” Didn’t work tho, cuz I’m not russian and I don’t live in russia. It was a wild time. lol

Even tho I created and mod several socialist and third party comms: Socialst, Anarchist, Green, etc. :

And I actually voted for a Socialist party. Now, third party is cool, but right before the election, oh hell no! You were a traitor if you mentioned third party. lmao.

My post history and my comment history is public both from on this instance and my former home, .world under this same username. :)

Basically they all swore up and down that I’d disappear right after the election. And blocked me. But I didn’t disappear, and since they blocked me, they don’t see my posts. So they keep going on and on about how I was banned from Lemmy. lol

Now, anytime they see a poster they don’t like, they like to say it’s an “alt of Universal Monk” trying to worship Trump. When you ask them why I would post and create so much Socialist stuff if I was really a Trump voter, they usually then attack you and say that you are an alt of Universal Monk too.

All the while, I’m over here just posting away and doing my thing and posting my fiction writing, socialist articles and anarchy articles. :)
