    I’m sorry, I fail to see how this reads as anything other than “Amanda” being an insanely self-important cunt…

    So, if you “support this” feel free to assume that extends to you as well

      I’d recently blocked “LadyButterfly she/her” because I was getting fed up of her constant low effort ragebait, so I was surprised to see this post appear on my feed - it turns out she’s posting from multiple instances, presumably to get around either blocks or bans.

          Yup. Also the post captions always read a bit too engagmentey, if that makes sense? Like either the account is a bot, or it’s one that being run cynically by a farm who’s following a set of guidelines to maximize reach over anything like sincere interest or value or humanity.

            People who get stirred to rage by someone momentarily impressed by mild and inconsequential pettiness: “This is some kind of social media conspiracy.”

              It’s hardly tinfoil hat time - I defy you to name a single poster anywhere on Lemmy who reads more like a repost bot or engagement farmer than that particular user.

                Shit, is she getting paid? How do I sign up?

                I browse by subscribed, so I don’t see a lot of stuff. But off the top of my head? Stamets, King, Mickey7, probably others I don’t recall.

                Pretty sure OP switched instances some time back if you’re wondering why you see her stuff.

      I’m sorry but I have to assume you’re not British (which is fine, not your fault). You wouldn’t survive one day in the jungle of unspoken rules of politeness that is a Tesco queue.

      No ‘thank you’ for a divider? That’s a firm mild stare for you

      No ‘no worries’ when people apologise for forgetting to thank you for the divider? Rude.

      No ‘nonono it was me luv’ when people tell you ‘no worries’ after you apologised for forgetting to thank them for the divider? Are you some sort of sociopathic asshole?
