I said the user didn't exist five times in this post. I just counted all the times I said "fictional", "fake", or "made-up". And then you left a comment saying Obvious_Troll is an aussie zone user, the transphobic troll uses neopronouns, and I'm transphobic for calling them a troll. Multiple people told you that Obvious_Troll doesn't exist, and your response was that I must be mistaken about Obvious_Troll not existing, because you defederated from Hexbear. What??? Why do you keep insisting this person is real, and why do you keep insisting they're trans? What quality of this fictional troll telling trans people to kill themselves repeatedly convinces you that they're a trans person?

This post isn't about the instance the fictional troll is from. I made a post with a transphobic troll in it, and picked a username, instance, and post name that fit with the message. I picked a silly name for an obvious troll, a silly post title for a post about abstaining over Palestine, and a silly instance for the troll to be from. I didn't really think any deeper about the association than "Troll needs an instance, I'll pick the one known for having trolls". And when you asked me to redact the instance, I did, and the post remained up until you deleted the community. I always followed the rules and did as you told me on Blahaj. This post isn't about the instance redaction, that has always been a non-issue. This post is about you seeing a meme about a fictional transphobic troll and assuming they're a real, trans, person. Which has now happened twice! Why do you keep assuming every transphobic troll you hear about is trans? It's weird.

Sure. And I did remove the instance name as requested, and the meme stayed up until the entire community it was posted in was later deleted. This post isn't about the instance censoring. This post is about the initial decision by Ada that Obvious_Troll must be a real, trans lemmy user, which has now happened twice, because Ada claimed Obvious_Troll is real again.

That's after I said the name was fake. Ada started out thinking Obvious_Troll was a real person, and only realised they were fake when I said so. Then she changed her request to censoring the instance instead of the person. You need to read the screenshot bottom to top, because Lemmy puts more recent private messages at the top. I know it's annoying.

They're not. I made them up for a meme. I created a meme where someone said a bad opinion, and I gave them the fake username Obvious_Troll because I wanted the reader to think they were obviously a troll. If Obvious_Troll is real, can you give me a link to their profile? Any of their posts?

Yes, it was a meme. It was fiction. There wasn't really a user called Obvious_Troll@hexbear.net, they never existed. They don't have an account on aussie.zone because they're imaginary. There was never a debate about their pronouns because I made them up. They only existed in the meme you asked me to censor their name from.

Nah, I want war. I want the rest of the world to go to war with the US. They've got a Nazi problem. We beat the Nazis in 1945 and we might need to beat them again in 2045.

And they used a picture of Neo. Might as well show a picture of Luke Skywalker and bust the "movie myth" that you can use the force to lift objects

Neo is a superhero using hacks in a video game world. Criticising The Matrix because Neo is better with guns than any real person is like criticising Superman because nobody can leap tall buildings in a single bound.

That's actually the fart gun from Despicable Me

Gumby is a prehistoric cartoon character.

I disagree. Look at the time Justin Roiland was accused of false imprisonment, and they replaced Rick and Morty. It went great, the new Rick and Morty sound perfect. Now look at how Marvel dragged their feet on replacing Jonathan Majors and eventually decided to just ignore all their Kang foreshadowing and replace him with Dr Doom. It sucks, they should have just recast him.

Recasting allows newer and less well known actors to break into an entertainment industry dominated by sequels, adaptations, and franchises. They reduce the capital held by big time actors who are already far too rich. Recasting is good.

Try having a hot chocolate instead. Jot can amplify the taste of milk.

scientifically, an organism that does not eat meat is a meat eater.

That's not science, that's religion. You're talking about destiny. You're saying cats have an essential nature which is not affected by the conditions of their lives. That the physical reality of what a cat eats does not determine its diet, that there exists a deeper truth based on what nature "intended". Nature doesn't have intentions. Cats were not created by an omnipotent god. Their place in the world, their role as animals, their diet, is malleable. And it changed a long, long time ago. Humans get to decide what cats are, and they've been deciding it for thousands of years. Humans decided to create a technology that makes cats no longer carnivores. You're citing outdated information. You might as well say pandas are carnivores.

Yesterday probably. Someone probably got released from prison yesterday.
