you know what i call #ReplyGuys en mi lengua natal?
PENDEJOS.
don’t be a pendejo in my mentions.
insomnia doesn’t make me testy. it makes me ruthless
If someone posts that they don't want replies to said post, don't reply to the post.
am going to say this to all the knee-jerking fauxnarchist #ReplyGuys out there just waiting to jump at any opportunity to own the libs:
SHUT THE FUCK UP
the vast majority of the Reagan/Bush/Cheney lackeys have been behind Trump SINCE HIS DAYS OF TROLLING OBAMA ABOUT HIS BIRTH CERTIFICATE.
#MAGA IS #REAGANISM.
you come to my mentions to minimize this truth so you can say the Democrats are the real fascists?
GET THE FUCK OUTTA HERE WITH THAT A-HISTORICAL BULLSHIT
y’all the worse.
The phenomenon of fanboi #replyguys is astounding
Someone complains about a super annoying tweak or notification from Google's phone app, for example, and you get this absolutely misguided comment
https://support.google.com/pixelphone/thread/330441623/disable-help-to-us-improve-in-call-log?hl=en
"I don't understand the frustration with this new functionality. How often do you look at the recent call screen? Are you spending that much time staring at recent calls that this is annoying? The way I see it, this is me helping Google know which calls to let ring through and which to block. I have no problem helping the Phone app know which calls to block and which are real businesses that should ring through."
I mean, yes, it IS that annoying.
Reply guy doesn't realize it shows up on every single call with people already in your address book.
You know Mastodon is under attack but what do you do?
Is ignorance really the solution?
I mean my approach is actually partly "ignorance" because I'm in "Shields Up Mode", so I'm not coming fully clean into this conversation...

It happens again and again: When I, as a woman, express my fascination with a scientific article (because I follow these scientists and work on these topics as a journalist), middle-aged #replyGuys pop up who don't seem to have a clue about science, but post ‘funny’ dad jokes in response to my answer. They didn't read the article, just want to disqualify my comment.
If you want to get blocked for sure, play the dumb #ReplyGuy.
What's with all these replyguys?
I think it's a bonus I've been a replyguy myself and still am sometimes when I don't realize I am one: It's easier to detect them!
They don't reply on topic and they talk about stuff that makes you go:
"WTF ARE YOU ON?"
and
"DID YOU READ MY POST!?"
and
"HOW DID YOU COME TO THAT CONCLUSION???"
or
"You replied to someone else and sent it to me"
Spontaneity is fine, let's backtrack. Hit the reply button...but also hit the delete one.

They've been enormously successful when over 30% of Americans didn't bother to vote in 2024.
Countering the strategy behind such accounts is critical. Mute. Block. Suspend. An imperative in psychological warfare.
#ReplyGuys serve a purpose for the oligarchs funding MAGA.

The signs: a recent account with few followers and few independent responses.
#ReplyGuys follow popular accounts & hitchhike off their followers to spread their malign messaging, hoping to go viral.
They coattail off popular accounts to drown out the original post.
They often work in teams with other sock puppet accounts to parrot their narratives or sea lion the popular account.
Just as Germans were flooded with Nazi messaging using cheap radios & antisemitic broadcasts, a...

Undoubtedly #replyguys are everywhere

I mean Reply Guys is the reason Gaming on Linux "Liam" left and went to Bluesky. I don't know if Bluesky users get many reply guys there but who knows...I don't know much about Bluesky except that that their protocol isn't compatible with the W3 standard ActivityPub

Yo, your username is seen here on the screenshot. Do you consent to this use? Any publicity is good publicity some say.

Bluesky has automated it's Reply Guys, will the contagion spread?
"...let's burn this whole madhouse down...."
feeling that vibe today, no mood for fools and reply guys with their "DEBATE ME" timewasting fash enabling shit.
The reason nobody talks to you is because you think you're better than everyone else, you think you hide it but you don't.
Now fuck off.
