I've reported this guy to MODs but hes been harassing pedes here on and off for at least 2 weeks.
This is almost certainly paid shill work. The basic idea is to be aggressively ignorant and maybe rude as a way to bait helpful people into a discussion that the shill will ensure is as mentally exhausting, infuriating, and inevitably fruitless as possible.
The idea behind the strategy is that you can prevent the growth of a community by targeting the 'naturally helpful' people you hope to make the community less hospitable and so joining becomes less desirable.
This is boring and tedious, since the shills goal is to waste your time and mental energy on him instead of a genuine community member, so to do any real harm with this method requires many shills over a long period of time. Hardly something anyone does for fun.

Hahaha. I would never have thought that all it would take for a shill to wreak havoc is to refuse to accept a piece of movie trivia from a "pede".
Man, I haven't seen someone so angry at me since Sibley Del Willison wrote five frownie faces next to my name on the board in third grade!
