I was going to say that it’s not nearly as much of a problem on lemmy with the lower user count and lack of allocated per-account karma (karma is only per post/comment), but less than a month apart is silly.

Edit:

It’s Stamets. C’mon now. There’s a lot more you should recognize their account from than just “reposter”. They’re a mod of many of the Star Trek based communities and one of the most active posters on Lemmy. Seems to be a stand up person but can let their righteous fury get the better of them at times.

Lemmy is small enough that the community can legitimately self manage this sort of stuff, and we probably need the content anyway. Downvote. Block if you feel the need to. Lemmy is small enough that curating via blocking users is still very effective.

Lemmy doesn’t seem to be in any danger of growing influencers yet, and again: karma isn’t a thing that collects on accounts like it does on reddit. Karma farming isn’t possible here.

It’s my understanding that the model used for “modern Jesus” was Leonardo DeVinci’s gay lover.

Jesus was a white god fearing American. Everybody knows that

Right, considering it all happened in Jerusalem, which is in the middle east, where there probably weren’t any white people.
