I am fucking tired of this shitty behavior.

A place where you can rant to your heart's content.
This wouldn't solve the problem. They'd just roll in with cm0003. You need an IP ban or some similar source specific censorship. Even then, it's a moving target when the end user is determined enough.
Yep, there's at least two different people who are playing this sockpuppet game already. One went by, among other names, lucky8 and would only post think-tank political articles across dozens of communities - an actual propaganda account. Another appears to just repost reddit content onto Lemmy, they had a name similar to darnelle until they started picking other names.
These accounts stand out a lot more whenever you take a look at a specific-purpose instance like a country or subculture instance, rather than a large general-purpose instance like yours or mine. A lot of people complain because these sockpuppets flood an instance with propaganda or just off-topic junk.
