Sheeba Bukuru fled the scene, with the cyclist bleeding and unconscious on the road, before reporting to the police that his car had been stolen at knifepoint 15 minutes later
That’s called cross posting, it’s an incredibly widespread practice, and it’s a common courtesy to share content between multiple applicable communities where there may be different people to see it.
It’s a bit different from following someone around and posting cryptic bullshit in all of their posts. As others have said, just block them and move on if you’re bothered.
But me commenting on three “cross-posted” posts about how this guy is spamming, that’s spam. But his posts, which far outnumber my comments, are not spam, but my criticism of his spam is?
Honestly, how do you manage such cognitive dissonance?
No need to follow anyone around. You never browse new? He spams his links, so they appear at the exact same time. He doesn’t read the things he posts, he spams. Just because you’re having a tantrum, stomping your foot and pretending he isn’t, that doesn’t change reality.
You don’t think disinformation online is everyone’s problem?
Or are you gonna hope that by having ignored the questions in the last comment about you maintain your extraordinary cognitive dissonance, I’m gonna accept the implication that it isn’t spam?
If you’re getting so upset online, maybe take a break from it?

Let me be clear:
Everything you are talking about is not an OP problem. It’s also not everyone else in this thread’s problem despite your insistence that it should be.
This is a you problem, and the easiest way to fix it is if you do what everyone else here is recommending: block them and move on.
Hey if you’re bothered, you can just block me. ;>

I’m not blocking you because I believe in doing what anyone else should do when they see someone else being harassed, which is to intervene.
Stop stalking OP. I don’t care if you think your reasons are justified, this is not okay to do.
“Harassed”, sure buddy.
Dude makes 12 posts an hour, every hour, for months, and calling him out on it is harassment?
So by calling me out now, aren’t you harassing me?
When you browse new, he’s all you see.
Stop being obtuse and pretending there aren’t bad actors.
