I love the Nazis are leftists comment in that thread. I saw that this morning and literally laughed out loud. If he’s isn’t a Russian troll, then he really is colossally stupid. Or he is a Russian troll and colossally stupid (but I don’t think he’s a Russian troll, mainly because I cannot imagine the Russians targeting the SDMB with that kind of vigor).

Well they have to start somewhere: to borrow an idea from someone else, perhaps this is their training ground where they prove or hone their English and trolling skills. A medium-sized general interest board seems like the perfect place to do that.

Yeah, that’s possible I suppose. It might explain why early on he really didn’t post much that was political. I first interacted him in the Chess AI thread, and he was colossally stupid there too.

Yup. I suspect this is some sock’s sleeper account that they just woke up.

He reminds me of Silver Lining except on speed.

I first came across this wonder in the gun thread, but then I had a further quick look. I don’t know if he’s a sock but the picture I got was: gun nut, thinks guns are essential for preventing tyranny, such as if a black Kenyan is ever elected president again; Trump voter who thinks Trump is the best prez ever, probable owner of a Chinese-made MAGA hat that he’s so proud of that he wears it to weddings and funerals; thinks the free market is the perfect solution to health care woes, and Trump has already fixed it all up. Probably thinks Putin should be VP, which he sort of already is.

An April 2015 join date, but there’s been a sudden burst of incoherent “yah boo sucks to liberals” posts in a few threads (most notably the SLIOTD thread). To be fair, it doesn’t appear to be trolling so much as it does an uncontrollable spasm of Trumpian Tourettes.

Try as he might, he keeps randomly forgetting the English definite article; [this post](https://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showpost.php?p=21117675&postcount=1) starts off with “Let’s stay away from Russia topic …”, showing that he obviously thinks in Russian and translates to English on the fly. I always read the guy’s posts in the voice of Boris Badinov.

He is definitely being well fed here.

A bit of a retro-troll: someone has bumped [a GQ thread](https://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=685298) started by LonesomePolecat, who is banned. Curious why, I looked at his posting history. Gosh, that was a plesant fellow.

Yep. Primarily here to troll.

Life = doubtful.

Family = a stray cat with mange, and three goldfish with fin rot.

Work travel = to the back freezer for another bag of fries.

Meetings with executives = McDonald’s QC must be spot-checking the fryers again. It wouldn’t be getting instructions from Fearless Leader in Pottsylvania, those arrive every month sewn into Natasha’s knickers.

Weekend plans = kicking back with a few bottles of Stolichnaya and trolling teh Interwebs. Unless it’s one of those Very Very Special Weekends, when he actually gets to attend a Trump rally and threatens journalists.

Jim’s Son is soon to be gone.
