I got into it at chapotraphouse, not realizing what they were, thinking they were just super politically correct westerners. A couple decent ones told me, two score trolling messages deep after I offended their “eastern governments,” as not an aspirational model for the west. But the few I made nice with that explained to me they were communists living outside the US didn’t stop the rest. I quit responding after a bit, being flooded by multiple attacks. But they would follow me onto other threads and troll me, still do occasionally months later. When returning to their instance to make a few marginally popular comments, one responded with a link to the offending comment from months prior too, and sparked another wave of brigading. Meaning they somehow had my account flagged, and they likely have sort of enforcers as I gather. (edited for clarity.)
Plus I’m pretty sure some have accounts on other instances that they’ve came and trolled me with, one for sure I’ve got pegged, made right after the incident and not having many other comments that keeps popping up in other instances for the troll, one calling me a troll and telling everyone to block me and move on for instance, on a marginally downvoted comment I made arguing about the direction of the resistance. (edited for clarity.)
Talking to others about the defederation, which I was against moreso before talking and learning more about it, they are rather known for that. Making burner accounts and trolling people, and have chased off a lot of new users that wander onto their instance as I did. I think other tools should be used than defederation still, like a warning, having to opt in to even not have them blocked, which I’ve been told piefed has the tools to do.
I might make a piefed account as well here at some point after researching which one, the lemmy I’m on is great though just lacking in some functionality aspects like context, I can’t respond to comments not directed to me on that chain of comments from there but would have to find it in all comments under my instances view for instance as context takes me to the other instance’s page. But I hear there are extensions I’m supposed to be using so I need to try that.

I got them tagged as “calls everyone nazi type of tankie” from earlier. Looks I chose accurately.
