A question for my fellow progressives.

I've noticed several conservative SW members with MANY alternate accounts. These fake accounts will even comment to one another. HILARIOUS!! They're unable to debate and will inevitably resort to name-calling, usually "libtard". In fact, a member who was unable to communicate via an intelligent conversation got so flustered that he called me diesel dyke. Really? I'm a diesel dyke? Who knew? Btw, I've never met a diesel dyke I didn't like so of course, that didn't offend me.

So the question for my fellow progressives is this...
Do you
a) feel sorry for them
b) block them
c) ignore them
d) engage with them because they're entertaining

I don’t block, but eventually, they block me. On a rare occasion, I had to resort to blocking, because the person would become completely disruptive (flooding the thread with nonsense).

Some have formed groups, to attack me. Also tried to use my same avatar on fake accounts.

I love it when their fake accounts high five each other. They’re usually easy to spot, the language, style, use of obscure idioms, etc.

It’s all really sophomoric, and very sad.

That's beyond sophomoric - that's a mental illness. Wow!

@SWMae And some of these people are in their 60s.

I've only blocked one user on this site for being an absolute political zombie, and that was TexChik. She has no actual core beliefs, and will support whatever her "team" is supporting at the moment. The others, in my experience, seem to care at least a tiny bit about the truth, which can make them entertaining to debate with.

I haven't found evidence that these right-wingers have alternet accounts though. Maybe PM me with the reasons why you think that some of 'em are puppets.

Overwatch6 was a snowflake from the word go; after I hurt his fee-fees with memes he shot me a profanity-fillede-mail informing me that I was a “cuck” (I’m a female), and that he was “blocking my ass, which needs to go back to where every libtard snowflake belongs. Jack Johnson Junior reported me for hurt fee-fees over memes. He’s slipped into Overwatch’s spot. ”@BlueVeins

when I first joined, I blocked a bunch of them, Katielass, Texchik (we blocked each other at the same time) a few others as well. Now, though, I simply don't care and rarely respond to them. their opinions holds no value to me. 🤷‍♀️

@katielass and @TexChik are certifiably insane.

I've noticed a couple with multiple accounts. There are a couple of others that are very suspicious, but I can't prove they are multiple account holders. I will engage them in conversation like anyone else. With one exception, I won't block them unless they block me first.

I refuse to be pigeon-holed into any of those choices and will do any and/or all of those things at a given time :D

His main account was flagged and he was warned by the admins that it's against TOS to have multiple accounts AND he was flagged for harassment. Also, two long term SW members warned me about him and made me aware of his alternate accounts. He really needs to get a life.

I tend to block but they generally out themselves when they reappear by making the same ignorant and ill-informed arguments.
