Sorry if it's a dumb question. I'm not even knocking or shaming, I just think they're really funny and want to see more if you know of them. Not accounts that downvote, accounts that ONLY downvote. Rare ones. Like weapons-grade haters.

I'd collect them in my user tags. And like, just observe what they respond to.

I found an account that went on my profile and downvoted a bunch of comments in rapid succession (because timestamps are withing those 2 minutes), particulary ones complaining about China / Chinese culture. I went in their profile and apparantly they linked to a website... which I assume it's their own site (or could be impersonation not sure), which linked to their social medias and they appear to be another Chinese diaspora judging by their name and profile pic...

I'm so confused lmao... nationalism much?

Oof yeah sometimes it's easy to set someone off. I don't think I've had a personal dedicated hater like that yet. I got heavy handed with the block function when I first got here though. People should use that instead of going through your profile.

That said I also remember acting similarly petulant at least once when I first got here. Maybe it's something people can grow out of.

(But can you send me your hater's profile?)
