Now you're getting my point. By allowing this to continue, it will grow into the next level where the content is not benign. This is in their playbook so it's best to know how the play works and to shut it down early before the irreversible damage is done. Rotting leads to death so it's best to get rid of the rot quickly. Ignoring it makes it grow faster. If everyone blocks him, how will we know he's not posting CP?
That’s what you think the end-goal is? Get everyone to block him and then start posting child porn?
And regardless, I’m sure AOU would notice even if every other poalr had him blocked
Like legitimately this is some kid at his moms house posting funny memes on a novelty account. This is a huge overreaction
You don't think that it could go that way? Maybe not Tealc, but I guarantee you someone else with bad intentions could do this same thing. Back on Voat, TheAmerican would create new accounts all the time. He would start off being normal and posting generally normal content. After some time has passed and no one suspected him, he would start in with his usual bullshit of "container, container, container", "surround sound all over town brown", "scrotie, scrotie oatmeal" and eventually start trashing Voat as a platform. This continued with over a dozen accounts spread over two+ years. I saw him as a test bed for a new subversion technique and was able to devise a method of sniffing out his new accounts before he switched modes. I think he was an operative who was researching new ways to infiltrate and subvert forums. It wasn't just some bored rich guy living in a cabin as he claimed he was. There was too much glow coming off of him. I see this happening here. It may even be that Tealc is TheAmerican in a new form. Don't be lulled into thinking he's some kid at his mom's house. He could be much more than that. Consider yourself forewarned about what could happen.
Ok, I’ll consider myself forewarned. But no, I do not think indeed is going to be the death of poal. Plus, you know, slippery slope. Start making up rules to ban people and then where does it go? You end up with Reddit
