I've heard plenty of "far-left" people use slurs, including n*****. Using a slur is not indicative of a political leaning, it's an indication of your edge-lord status.

If a person is acting like a right-wing asshole, I’m going to assume they are a right-wing asshole. If they don’t like that, they should change their behavior.

This is circular reasoning -- a tautology.

Respectfully, this isn't a "far-right" attack but a plain trolling attempt because reacting like this shows you're an easy target.

You should try to remove such content quietly. Creating publicity about attempts will only encourage trolls.

No, it’s abductive reasoning. If it looks like a duck and quacks like a duck…

> If a person is acting like a right-wing asshole

my point was people of all political leanings can act like this. it's not exclusive to "far-right" people.

they don't care. that's why they're trolling

Apart from jokes, why appealing to victimization when you have internet trolls bombing your system?

Trolls will always troll, and it's idiotic to blame far-whatever stuff always. If you have an online platform, you should at least keep your site safe from trolls and spammers.

They should stop doing victim-hood things, recognize their site was attacked by internet trolls and fix that thing. Everyone who have online services (including myself) knows this is a common issue.

Our site have attacks from radical left comments instead, and we don't do this "oh no, political extremism is too far, hate is never accepted", instead, we just delete the comments, try our best to keep them out from our platform and that's it.

Trolls will post extremism from left, right, anarchist, porn, ads, whatever in order to disrupt services

Respectfully, if you really believed this, you wouldn't be hiding behind a throwaway account.

What are you even trying to say with that? The troll got what they wanted, attention.

I believe it, too, and i am not hiding. Every other teenager who is testing out how they can leave their "imprint" on the world will do offensive things, intentionally.

And by pulling a strong "omg we are attacked by the EVIL people", codeberg is feeding the troll. That guy is making big of an impact right now.
