Time2lose is almost definitely u/sanitation after he got torn apart in his “everyone who doesn’t like my repost bot is wrong” post. They’re using the same software that trunctates post titles. They’re both clearly Russian and have made some anti-ukraine comments.
And not to get all conspiratorial but it is a biiit suspicious that a Russian bot is spamming tabloids to the US news communities when we’re approaching an important election. At the very least, it’s annoying as fuck.
I don’t think the user you’re talking about in the top post is the same, though. Different posting styles, totally different content. I also don’t think it’s the same person as the (thankfully dead) SteamAndEpic account, either, though that one was also Russian. Just a lazy spammer this time.

Wholly agreed with your conclusion, though.

They’re spending money on this pollution? What a loser

Probably my least favorite Lemmy user of all time. He truly believes he’s not making this place worse.

They admit to running a bunch of ai powered accounts.

It almost certainly is, Both Sanitation and Time2lose use the term “reddit agent” when people point out the automated reposts.

Wish they’d get IP banned. The second account exists to circumvent the community bans of the first
