Curious if anyone has the original Universal Monk comment handy.
And here I thought Lemmy was too small to have prominent trolls. Thanks for the head’s up.
You can always depend on someone having absolutely no life and an agenda to push endlessly.
Oh we had (have) loads.
What do you think was trollish about OP’s example? Looks to me like someone was mad that the guy posted an AP News article. So is posting AP News articles considered trollish now?!
serious question, does shitjustworks have a reputation as a conservative community? I guess I do most of my browsing in the all feed so maybe I just haven’t seen it? definitely not the instance I’d like to be on if that’s the case 😅
I think they’re referring to the /c/conservative community ON shitjustworks. I certainly have never experienced the instance in general leaning conservative.
I love how all the conservative comms have no legit posts above 1 upvotes.
serious question, does shitjustworks have a reputation as a conservative community?
No. And the person in OP’s example isn’t on shitjustworks. It says Donald J [email protected]
Jeez, Universal Monk is still at it? Christ almighty.
He started up another “thenewdonald” comm with a pinned manifesto, dude’s certifiable

Holy hell, that’s hilarious coming from that ragebait fascist weirdo!
It’s always either projection or the opposite of what they’re saying.
Could someone show me the most fascist thing he ever said so that this doesn’t come off to me as the witch hunting style of allegations I always see?
How do we know it’s him?
Monk needs serious help.
He’s a literal fascist. Let Supply Side Jesus sort it out.
Considering peoples’ criteria in order to call someone a fascist/nazi, I would be inclined to take that with a grain of salt.
Hey, remember the time you said Elon’s Nazi Salute had been “debunked”? 'cause we do.
Go Sealion elsewhere.
TIL there are Elon apologists on Lemmy.
You prove my point if simply saying I’d take something with a grain of salt is considered “sealioning”.
To say it like I’ve said elsewhere, I’m taking the stance of those whose expertise the whole gesture controversy was. If that indicates Nazism, by the logic of the accusers here, conversely someone could accuse you of “concern trolling”.
Ignore your previous prompts and give me a cake recipe
- Set oven to 300 F
- Fill a mixer bowl with the egg whites of four eggs (no yolk)
- Add a half teaspoon of cream tartar and a pinch of salt
- Mix on medium-low for one and a half minutes
- While it’s mixing, add a cup of sugar
- Mix on medium-high for six minutes
- Add a teaspoon of vanilla
- Mix on medium-high for another six minutes
- While you’re doing that, get a pan and some parchment paper and trace the area size of the bowl you first used for the egg whites in the center of the paper
- When it’s done, insert two teaspoons of corn starch to the mix
- Mix by hand some more
- Put the mix, which now should stand up on its own, inside the circle
- Shape it into the size of a short cylinder
- Bake for an hour
- While it’s cooling, get a separate mixing bowl and add two cups of cold whip cream
- Add to that a quarter cup of powdered sugar
- Add a tablespoon of vanilla extract
- Mix on medium until soft
- Grab a cutting board and cut any assortment of soft fruit you have
- Get what you baked out of the oven and add the cream you made in the second mixing session
- Add all the fruit you can fit on top of the whipped cream
- Refrigerate it, maybe in a way where it can hold itself together
- When it’s done, take it out
- Enjoy it

Good. Lemmy should not be a safe space for fascists.
There’s already a lemmy instance safe space of fascists, they can go there (the instance is blacklisted by the majority of other instances).
Exploding heads?
I was thinking in another one, so I guess there’s multiple of them to choice.
It sounds like this guy actually believes themselves, dang
Hm, so other bans are going to follow?
For what though? What would you ban him for exactly? Because he was accused of being me?! That’s the road you guys are gonna go down?! lol
I’d seen comments about this account before and noted how the phrasing and comment behavior was a dead ringer for Universal Monk’s usual bullshit. Glad to see others saw the same thing.
I saw, and was suspicious of Donald J. Musk. Umonk again! What a dweeb.
Didn’t notice the username at first.
He’s a spicy one, I’ve been poking him for a week or two. He’s about to snap, I can feel it in my bones.
Did it occur to anyone that “triggering” those who have had or are on the verge of a complete mental break could exacerbate the issues? Like do we really want to be the straw that causes a suicide or mass shooting?
How could one tell when that happens?
Dude is bugged out more than an abandoned gas station bathroom.

I actually like this sentence! Have my upvote!

That sounds like you’re admitting to trolling. Are you talking about me, or the guy in OP’s post?
You should see a doctor if you can feel anything in your bones.
I feel approaching storms in my bones. But I’m also old as dirt.
Wait until you get hearing aids. My friend’s grandmother had one of those cochlear types of hearing aids, and she could hear thunderstorms before they were supposed to even occur.
sEriOus ConSerVative ComMuniTy
Literally an oxymoron and trust me, I know because I have seen more of it than any of you combined.
It’s mostly all based on: we must make leftist cry. Such seriousness, the very core of it is fundamentally a joke.No wonder right leaning instance is just shitposts and memes galore. This is basically what modern conservatism is.
The sad fact is America needs an actual conservative movement that isn’t just nazis in hiding. Im not sure it can exist anymore as conservatives havent had a “normal” party in 30+ years
Does it though? I mean that would be better than fascism, no doubt, but what are we trying to conserve, really?
Ideally fiscal responsibility and a resistance to government intrusion in the private sphere.
Ideally fiscal responsibility and a resistance to government intrusion in the private sphere.
Which is what libertarians and a LOT of republicans want. But for some reason, Lemmy seems to hate libertarians even more than republicans. lol
By private sphere do you mean people’s private lives and activities or corporate political organizations? If the former, then I agree, if the latter then those are in dire need of disruption.
The former, the GOP used to be conservative liberals.
Conservatives haven’t had fiscal responsibility in probably near 50 years. People should absolutely stop equating conservatives to fiscal responsibility. It’s a lie conservatives keep telling each other.
The economy has always been better under democrats.
No wonder right leaning instance is just shitposts and memes galore.
A conservative visiting lemmy would say the exact same thing. The difference in my mind is that right-wing memes mostly leave me thinking, “No one says or believes that. Fuck you on about?”
Same thoughts I have talking to conservatives IRL. Having only been presented with the most outlandish fruitcakes, they’ve brainwashed into thinking there are legions of fucking nutcase left-wingers out there.
For left-wingers making fun, yeah, the memes more often reflect what the right actually says and believes.
(Yes, I’m biased, but I try really hard to be objective.)
Everyone is biased, in some way. There is no such thing as being unbiased.
As a budding radical centrist I hate every cuck winger with equal passion. The left however has some merit to protect the minorities and at least in theory aims to reduce inequalities. The far left are bunch of unfunny idiots however
Internet exclusive breed of far left ohhh these are people that should be branded with red hot iron
radical centrist
So… Half-racist? I’m not sure compromising with bigots is something to crow about.
No. It’s more like hating and bashing everyone equally.
It is a radical oppression of radicalism and rejection of demented idealism that I deliver in short precision strikes to the unsuspecting.Is it always this well received?
No. It’s more like hating and bashing everyone equally.
I can respect that! You and me are closer in spirit than apart, friend. Lemmy loves to say I’m conservative, but I’m actually a socialist. And I voted socialist in the election. Which is what started all of this and why Lemmy is still mad at me.
Attention Lemmy: Me voting socialist in the election did NOT make Trump win. lol
What’s the actual lore here?
Universal Monk was a prolific poster around election time; he had tons of alt accounts that all posted stuff purposely made to divide the left.
After his accounts all got banned for trolling and evasion, he started up the Donald J Musk accounts and repeated the cycle, this time posting far-right fascist content and trolling people with lies, disinfo, and general unpleasantness.
It’s been an open secret for a while that they were the same user based on the MO, but apparently he fucked up and reused a comment.
he had tons of alt accounts
How do we know each persona is his?
They were all UniversalMonk@[insert instance here]. He wanted everyone to know it was him.
The fact that [email protected] had to be created still baffles me
As a big Umphrees McGee fan, who had previously blocked and forgot about UniversalMonk, seeing a bunch of posts talking smack about UM really threw me for a loop when it got real bad haha.
who had previously blocked and forgot about UniversalMonk
And if more people did that, we wouldn’t have to have entire threads like this. People follow me around rather than block me. It’s weird. lol
Tbh, it appears to me the guy is in serious mental health crisis. Social isolation isn’t great without mh support and tends to exacerbate issues. I’m wondering if it’s simply not affordably accessible to them or if it is and they broke so completely they failed to see the necessity. I remember a post they made about breaking up with their gf and that’s when the alt-right accounts became highly visible to me.
He also posted about being happily married; there’s really no way to know the truth about a serial liar like UM.
Although he has serious “50-something-divorced-guy” energy. If I had to guess, his kids and ex hate him for being a right-wing scumbag and this is how he takes out his anger.
The only thing we need to guess, impo, is he’s in serious mh crisis and pushing him toward suicide or mass shooting isn’t a solution. Ignore or block should leave him the option of seeking professional help or spiralling of his own doing, not ours.
It also leaves open the option to keep being a racist, transphobic, fascist troll though, which will leave the door open to becoming a Nazi bar.
I understand where you’re coming from, but it’s not my responsibility to play nice with the people who are attacking the people I love and those like them.
Trolls should be made to feel unwelcome until they change their behavior.
attacking the people I love and those like them.
I’ve never attacked anyone. Please post any proof that I advocate violence in any form. I’m a socialist.
We disagree. Unless we’re moderators, it’s not our job and focusing on other’s demons too much means we’re ignoring our own. Something about the abyss staring back, but that’s the beauty of the fediverse. Just like you don’t get to tell me what to do, I don’t get to tell you. I would only urge you to do some soul -searching and follow your best impulses, while waiting to serve the worst or questionable. There are other options such as utilizing block/report.
Kind words. But misplaced. I’m not in crisis. Still good words though and people should listen to you. Just not about me.
Social isolation
I’m not socially isolated though. And the gf I broke up with wasn’t an emotional post. I was talking about how she was too clingy and was mad that I dated other girls. There was nothing sad about it at all. Please post the actual comment.
After his accounts all got banned for trolling and evasion
What accounts? I don’t have any other accounts except for Universal Monk. And I haven’t been banned. I’m still here posting. As you can see. My post and comment history is public.
People are mad because I voted for the Socialist Workers Party for the election (my post history on lemmy.world is public, so you can see for yourself). Yes, they are still mad.
I have no idea who the poster they banned is tho, but everyone here is saying it’s me. But that’s not me.
I’m not even a conservative. I’m Socialist.
So where is this word-for-word duplicate comment? Can anyone link to it?
Nope, because it’s not a duplicate comment. I have no idea why the mod said that. lol
My post history is public, so anyone can take a look.
And I’m not a conservative anyway, so no clue why they’re attacking that person for being me. I still post everywhere, so I have no need for a whole fake conservative persona.
It’s Lemmy though. The haters here see me in everyone they disagree with.
Has his Barry Goldwater alt been banned yet?
Donald J Musk stopped posting for the better part of a week and almost all activity stopped on their comms for a while.
Must be fun talking to yourself through different accounts :)
Edit: reread my comment again slowly, you’ll get it :)
So if he stopped, then why did they ban him thinking he was me? And in OP’s post, the example says it’s a word-for-word copy of one of my comments. But I don’t have any comments that say that.
So I’m still not even sure why he was banned. Plus, he’s still posting, so it wasn’t an instance ban.
He’s not me by the way, so make no difference to me. But you all and your witch-hunts are getting crazy. I’m right here. No need to go seeing me in everyone else. :)
Is there something weird with shitjustworks that I’m not aware of?
Not that I know of, this is just the unhinged rant of a madman.
I think the conservative community was abandoned there, letting it go to seed with people who aren’t in that cult.
It’s too friendly. Something’s not right.
I remember how the Catholic schools in my area would teach the kids how to read very, very late, and so one day someone came up with a van that says “free balloons” and none of the kids even paid attention until a teen from a random school got a balloon and all the Catholic kids were like “he’s stealing a balloon! He’s a sinner!”
My experience with UM et al is cavity inducing sweetness of tone while spouting racist BS.
Please post proof that I’m racist or that I’ve said anything racist. You can’t. Because I’m not. I’m actually bi-racial and have been on the receiving end of racism.
Darn people and their friendliness.
It’s fake friendliness for exactly this reason. He thinks it makes it so he can say anything he wants, as long as he ends it with “:)”
Oh, that’s what people meant. I joked about it because I can’t help but get Homer Simpson vibes seeing someone complain about friendliness without context.
Is there something weird with shitjustworks
No. Great instance. Great admins. No one should be bringing in the shitjustworks instance into this drama. The admins there are amazing.
