he's an astroturfer though, is he really low enough to stoop to ddos? thankfully the fediverse is diverse and resilient to attacks to any one instance lol

He'd be. But his fanbois already do that for him so he doesn't have to do it himself and worry about consequences.

You mean his employees?

No, I mean his fanbois. His employees would get paid to do that stuff and then there would also again be a way for him to bear the consequences. His fanbois don't get paid and he doesn't bear the risk.
