(106,242 posts)30. The point is that GWYM and MD were banned on the same day for the same reason
while GWYM was on a 5-hide suspension. And GWYM and MD also posted in the same style with the same political outlook.
OPERATIONMINDCRIME, on DU, was a very different poster - as far right as you could get away with on DU. "Operation: Mindcrime" was an album by Queensrÿche, and thus a phrase that several people may choose as a pseudonym. Given the difference in posting style and politics of the DU OMC and GWYM, I doubt they were the same person. OMC was banned on DU2 before DU3 started, so the "banned for creating a sock during a suspension" cannot refer to the OMC id. What we're looking for is a sock active after the Jan 12 suspension of GWYM - and that's Manifest Destiny.

I'd be ecstatic if they finally, once and for all, cleaned out ALL the socks, personally.
