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?

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
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.
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.

no tankie propaganda for me, thanks. I prefer facts.
In Jerboa, click the triple dots by the post, and then click “block [username]”.

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
A nice enough psychopath
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).

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.
Yeah, I can be an asshole online sometimes but he can reach another level. I guess you just gotta laugh at the situation: a guy passionately simping for a foreign government of a country he’s never visited. 😂

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"

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!
Following up… I think the guy is so disillusioned and angry at his own country (rightfully so, IMO) that he romanticizes China as the only viable alternative.
Any hole in that balloon threatens his sanity. I honestly feel bad for the guy. He’s probably not well… I wonder what he’s like IRL

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?
Are you OK?
Ah I guess I’m a school shooter now too?
You care an awful lot about online strangers’ opinions of you, so actually maybe you are
