The absolute worst part about Corey Yoho, by far, is he isn't even an interesting or fun troll. It's literally just boilerplate Griftosphere tweets, the same Twitter profiles again and again, and yet the same 10-20 posters are drawn in like light to flies. How hard is it to just skip past? He is almost guaranteed to disappear the second people stop acknowledging him, and yet we need a thread now to suggest shadow banning him? Just ignore the ####ing guy, I swear to you it's easy peasy. He generally makes me miss the old school trolls who, even if you knew the result is the same as trying to engage in dialogue with Yoho, were actually fun and interesting. Yoho is boring as ####, how people get roped is far more embarrassing on them than it is on him.

I actually like seeing and laughing at Yoho's posts. It's almost always good for a chuckle at just how stupid and illogical current conservative party voters are. I reply to one or two a week; he doesn't reply but I know deep down he reads and gains significant displeasure from certain styles of post back- not the "debunking" ones, rather the ones that point out how woefully insignificant he is. Anyways, I haven't quoted one in a while and will continue not to, as per the request of those blocking this nincompoop, but banning him will literally only accomplish him creating a new account. He lives for this. It's the only thing that brings him close to what you and I would term "enjoyment" in life.

I think this thread is way overboard but I do wish Yoho would actually engage in discussion and articulate their positions.
They are the only poster who strictly only does dive-bys and never backs anything up, so there's merit to the frustration the OP is having.

I welcome the right wing counter positions they have but wish they would actually engage in discussion.
That would Make Yoho Great Again

All day this. He's honestly easy to scooch on past. I can't understand how some people start pecking out replies to him. It's just so.......fataing dumb. They are seriously the problematic ones. Let Yoho post, but for the love of god, stop feeding him haha.

Yoho: congrats on this thread. You earned it, big guy.

It is a shadow ban if there is a public thread dedicated to the poster that may or may not be a Western Standard columnist? much to consider.


Edit: Yoho, if you're reading this DM me if you want to buy my Starter Away Powerstripe Fleury jersey. I

It's always been my biggest gripe about CP, I'll get warnings and infractions for having some filtered swears in a post, but trolls get an insane amount of rope around here

All he's doing is posting click bait and driving traffic to sites or posts of his choice. Once you see that he's easier to ignore.

I'd be on board with a custom user name like "paid click baiter" or "master clickbaiter" or something.

Masterbaiter?

Or changing his name to Yoyo instead of disgracing the name of one of our better national parks.
