More details about this for new folks, please?

Ms. Penny Oaken, SkyWitch (@skywitches.net):

Trolls purporting to be Kiwifarms are making sockpuppet accounts & spamming likes on target accounts' posts / comments to harass.

DON'T screenshot and post these kinds of trolls; they want that reaction. DON'T give it to them.

Add them to blocklists, report them to labeler services, block them.

Ms. Penny Oaken, SkyWitch (@skywitches.net):

In short:

There's a type of troll that tries to get as much attention as they possibly can, through outrage or followback spam or likespam, so they can then pivot to harassing a specific target or group to a large audience. Blocks here prevent it.

Denying hate groups & trolls the Oxygen of Amplification

BlueSky's "Nuclear Block" feature works for this purpose.

We don't dunk on or entertain bigots. They get their fuel supply choked off by the block.

I don't think Jim Stewartson, John Luc Potcard or Palmer Report do that.

Ms. Penny Oaken, SkyWitch (@skywitches.net):

I don't believe I have any of those people listed.

Elizabeth Wingfield (@quirkygrrrl.bsky.social):

The block list curators have some select big blue accounts buried on some of those lists. Read through them first.

Ms. Penny Oaken, SkyWitch (@skywitches.net):

I'm digging thru to make sure my lists are vetted - the "hate enablers" list isn't vetted and says so, & is a first-pass filter.

I think @dashwallkick.bsky.social might be a false positive on the Trolling/TriggerinTheLibs feed

Godspeed You! Woke Moralists (@dashwallkick.bsky.social):

I definitely do not do that, unless you mean antagonizing then from the left in which case oh yeah I definitely do that

Ms. Penny Oaken, SkyWitch (@skywitches.net):

There was an incident like a slapfight or beef that precipitated the listing. It wasn't a pattern.

Godspeed You! Woke Moralists (@dashwallkick.bsky.social):

That's usually the case I've found

I'll take that account off; there was something that was more like an internecine beef that precipitated that listing.
