the user https://sh.itjust.works/u/goat appears to be impersonating the mastodon user https://hellsite.site/@goat

same profile picture, name, however the sh.itjust.works user has decided to create a hate community, https://sh.itjust.works/c/meanwhileongrad as well as spreading misinformation about the lemmy developers.

I would normally just block and move on but I find it dangerous to allow someone to impersonate someone else on the fediverse (an admin too) and begin starting trouble.

    Having the same screen name or profile picture is one thing. Having both and using them to attack or harass the person that had them first or their ideology. That’s indefensible. I would hope any decent admin would block it as soon as it was brought to their attention.

    And let me be clear. I’m all for free speech. But this sort of shit has zero value. And to all the children slinging pejoratives here. Just because you disagree with someone doesn’t make that behavior acceptable. Each and every one of you would be rightfully upset in a similar situation. And that should be the situation to judge this by.
