Indeed it is, they were banned from this instance for trolling and harassment, and were also permabanned from pawb.social for the same reason. They literally incited harassment towards me, made an alt and posted insanely disgusting content in a community with the purpose to defame me. Even sent me porn in my DMs, utterly disgusting piece of shit.
This is one of the people who needs to be banned everywhere (homeserver ban) sooner rather than later.
I think they don’t post as much anymore but it was one person who kept posting while using the letter thorn (Þ, pronounced th as in the), people kept complaining that it made their posts less legible.
They ended up doubling down and incorporating other archaic letters, and over time they ended up writing all of their posts in very unreadable archaic writing.
Not the point, but didn’t they use þ for the th in “three”? And then ð for that in “the”? That’s their usage in Icelandic and I don’t remember them using the letters differently. But my memory isn’t worth much.
The person in question was very thorough about reviving older spelling conventions. I asked him about it once and he gave me a reply written in what he considered right. It was a LOT. Still, I’m impressed with his commitment to the bit.
Do you mean “☆ Yσɠƚԋσʂ ☆”? If so, they are very much still active, posting what looks to me at first glance as disinformation. Doesn’t look to be getting many downvotes though I assume it’s because people just block instead.
Oh, fuck off. Best I can do is ‘they’, I’m not entertaining a troll who’s using trans people as the brunt of their joke because they wanna identify as a mythical creature so they can get pissy with people.

Hey man, I know that Dragonfucker is a troll, and I’m not defending their behavior or saying they aren’t doing this (not saying they are either) but we shouldn’t dismiss the idea of people identifying in unique ways like drag claims to. Xenogenders are valid and so are therians.
I think that using they/them is the least we can do in this situation, and not deliberately use gendered pronouns to describe them. In dragonfucker’s case they want us to do more but they’re clearly not acting in good faith, if someone were, I would try and also encourage others to do so, but dragonfucker literally harassed me in DMs and publicly they have not shown any indication of good faith conduct. They just need to be banned like DroneRights and linkerbaan were.
While drag is 100% a troll, what evidence do you have that drag is lying about drag’s identity? Drag is not the first person I’ve met with a more complex identity, and I’ve even met one’s that are similarly upfront with their sexuality. Life, uh, finds a way, you know?
I think Mossy Feather’s comment upthread puts it best. If drag is a troll, then using correct pronouns and respecting drag’s identity is likely the best way to fuck with drag.

I think it’s kind of hard, I would agree with that to an extent but I also know of cases where the troll wanted that and their goal was to make asses out of the people who did that. I once ran across a person who claimed to use Me/My pronouns and would flip out at people if they didn’t use those pronouns. Their goal was to make anyone who tried to affirm them sound stupid so they could mock them. Indeed I saw them talking shit about how “liberals will bend over backwards to respect pronouns” or “look at these dumb libt*rds trying to please t-slurs” in that case I wasted no time calling them out and not playing any games with them.
It hasn’t been so clear cut with dragonfucker, though they did (almost 100% sure it was them) harass me very aggressively seemingly trying to get me banned on pawb.social, lemmy.blahaj.zone, possibly other instances, and just try to foster ill will against me. I’m not saying this is the same case as that or that I won’t try my best to respect dragonfucker. I do know though that it’s not as clear cut as doing what they want or the opposite.
I hope no one gets the wrong idea or thinks I’m saying we shouldn’t respect dragonfucker’s pronouns. I’m just saying there’s a point where you need to recognize that following along can lead you into a trap if you do it blindly.
there’s a load of accounts from either the same user (probably) or the same few users (possibly) including but not limited to hardlightcereal, dronerights, exocrinous, grail, mindtraveller, dragonfucker whose purpose is to make up mad gimmicks and claim anyone who doesn’t humour them is bigoted against australian soulist otherkin narcissists. it’s very funny
The behavior between the accounts is practically identical. They have to either be the same person or part of a group intent on trolling. Probably some of the biggest losers too, there’s no clout in trolling on Lemmy, Reddit maybe but not Lemmy.
Also add honourarydragon to that list, they claim to be dragonfucker’s SO but their accounts were created the same day and they only show up to defend dragonfucker when they’re getting heat.
i don’t normally pay close attention to usernames but bizarre shit stands out and you can see each account using similar talking points until they get banned or bored and a new one takes over eventually posting the same stuff
Probably not, because we banned drag on this instance due to the endless trolling and drama drag was causing. It’s a shame some of the trans communities haven’t yet realized that drag is making a mockery of neo-pronouns in order to stir up as much drama as possible.
Oh well, drag will have moved onto some other hot topic and another username soon enough, no doubt, and will likely suck in another bunch of well-meaning users who buy into drag’s shtick. Drag hasn’t tried pretending to be blind yet, for example, so we probably have that to look forward to at some stage.
I’m still respecting drag’s preferred pronoun just in the off chance drag is genuinely trans though - and I’d encourage other users to also do this. But let’s be real here - trans folks have their fair share of drama farmers and trolls, just like any other demographic. It’s not a free pass to be an asshole.

Isn’t this the same dude that insists on referring to himself in the third person as “drag”?

Yeap…
He has to be the most downvoted person on all of Lemmy.
You forgot the ye olde english guy
I don’t think I’ve run into him yet, do I wanna know, or is it something I should remain blissfully unaware of as long as possible?

Okay, But thats actually cool
No it was really annoying
Oh I saw that guy! Can confirm it was annoying, but I like having a few eccentric annoying people on here. They’re like mini celebrities.
People with gimmicks are tiring. Just go ask daddy for a hug and leave us out of it.
That’s fucking hilarious I love him

Can confirm, I am indeed blocking some special characters
Oh, fuck off. Best I can do is ‘they’, I’m not entertaining a troll who’s using trans people as the brunt of their joke because they wanna identify as a mythical creature so they can get pissy with people.

I think Dragon Rider is the drag person. Dragonfucker is someone else.
dragonfuckeranddragon "rider"are the same person. Dragonfucker is the username, which can’t be changed. Dragon “rider” is their display name.Nope. Dragon Rider is Dragonfucker’s display name. Just like how my displayname is “Norah - She/They” but my username is “princessnorah”
Oh! Thank you, I didn’t know that was a thing. I have no idea how things work here.
Really dude?
Really what?
Dragself
What? What is going on?

Lol how did you piece all that together? Because that’s exactly what’s going on imo.
i don’t normally pay close attention to usernames but bizarre shit stands out and you can see each account using similar talking points until they get banned or bored and a new one takes over eventually posting the same stuff
I had to google what some of those words mean. Are you telling me that this person means the “dragonfucker” literally? That they identify as a dragon?
it would be a drag to presume to speak for drag but drag will probably drag drag’s self along to explain drag’s drag act in drag’s own time
Probably not, because we banned drag on this instance due to the endless trolling and drama drag was causing. It’s a shame some of the trans communities haven’t yet realized that drag is making a mockery of neo-pronouns in order to stir up as much drama as possible.
