Matthew J. Garrett's Repertoire: When Trolling Becomes Antisemitism and Hate Crimes, Misusing the Tor Network to Break the Law

posted by Rianne Schestowitz on Aug 21, 2023,
updated Aug 21, 2023

This is an unplanned blog post, as it's Sunday night and we really ought to enjoy the weekend and not be distracted by any negative vibes, but I feel compelled to write this blog post anyway so as to not wait until my usual schedule says it's time to finalise my text (unlike the last time). I am rushing this because this is a very important topic and it should be given further emphasis. People should be aware or even should have brought this matter to their national authority's attention. The readers of Tux Machines and Techrights should know how this lunatic, pervert, crackhead DrAxe Matthew J. Garrett became utterly crazy. He had gone totally berserk around the time when my husband Dr. Roy Schestowitz were busy writing about Microsoft layoffs over in Techrights, publishing articles one after the other regarding those mass layoffs and I suppose this probably hit a nerve.

Herein, I will be showing the narrative or the fashion in which this disgusting human being was desperately trolling, provoking and trying to demoralise the IRC channels for many days in a row, hence the personal attack on Roy schestowitz never stopped. Here we go:

Offensive messages from Matthew J. Garrett

Introducing the "whitenigger" sockpuppet. I'm sure the readers know already the style and pattern of DrKnife Matthew J. Garrett's 'trolling' (see my first blog post and part two).

Offensive messages from Matthew J. Garrett

The psychopath who's hiding in the cabin in some forest (the definitive proof of this will follow, probably in the next blog post) is very obviously using the chatbot tools to generate his fabricated stories. The garbage-filled, poisoned, and cooked (well done! Fully cooked yet?) mind of DrAxe Matthew J. Garrett is no longer capable of thinking because he has the brain of a zombie. DrAxe Matthew J. Garrett is having a mental breakdown; this human being is not sleeping nor eating (except of course he snorts the cocaine that has become his food) and not even a taking shower for months already:

Offensive messages from Matthew J. Garrett

Can you imagine the smell of this person? I would say he would be stinky like a bunch of canned tuna, or worse, he might smell like a skunk... ewww, I hope Drknife Matthew J. Garrett is not eating fresh or burrito squirrel. I doubt he has the strength to hunt in the forest for food because even the random cockroach is evading and running away from him he is like a termite exterminator.

Mr. Garrett wanted to have mojito but can't have it, because he is in the middle of the forest, so there no way he can deny the fact that indeed he is now a forest-dwelling person...

Offensive messages from Matthew J. Garrett

Just like his hero, Unabomber.

Offensive messages from Matthew J. Garrett

Let's go back to the narration put forth by sockpuppet "whitenigger", whose first approach wasn't successful. The idiot Mr. Garrett started to interrupt and disrupt, trying to catch Roy Schestowitz's attention.

When he was being ignored things escalated. The lunatic DrAxe Matthew J. Garrett started his attempts at trolling for the second time around. Roy Schestowitz repeatedly snubbed him, saying people should just ignore the troll:

Second attempt? Also that attempt wasn't successful. It yielded no results either, so the incel psychopath DrKnife Matthew J. Garrett made an attempt for the third time around:

Offensive messages from Matthew J. Garrett

When Roy Schestowitz said "there are no racists nick here right now" DrKnife Matthew J. Garrett immediately created the sockpuppet "niggernigger", so you see the craziness of this person, right?

Offensive messages from Matthew J. Garrett

Finally he got Roy Schestowitz's attention this time around. The cocaine addict DrKnife Matthew J. Garrett was overwhelmed with happiness and he then replied, "hi Roy Schestowitz":

Offensive messages from Matthew J. Garrett

A few minutes after... DrKnife Matthew J. Garrett was back to his normal business (provoking, trolling etc.) and even responding or talking to himself, pretending the sockpuppets and himself are different entities:

Offensive messages from Matthew J. Garrett

Don't you have different tricks, Mr. Garrett? Personally I am already bored of your style and I bet the readers also feel the same way. In my many weeks of reading or at least scanning the logs (while investigating your trolling ventures) I can already smell your skunky presence in every way despite using so many names, changing from one sockpuppet to another, or jumping to other sockpuppets any time things get hot:

As the trolling and distraction continues, one sockpuppet called "nazipieceofshit" has quit:

Offensive messages from Matthew J. Garrett

He left the sockpuppet "niggernigger" and turned onto another polymorphous theme to become "HeilHitler":

The crackhead DrKnife Matthew J. Garrett would however go way to far this time. This is the main reason I decided to write this blog post (even if it's already late at night here).

Offensive messages from Matthew J. Garrett

This person must be reported to the authority/ies. DrKnife Matthew J. Garrett already lost his mind. This shouldn't be ignored and this person must stop.

You will see the reaction of mjg59_ DrKnife Matthew J. Garrett. Yes, all of the sudden he appeared at the scene, emerging from nowhere, perhaps because he realised what he was doing or saying will eventually come back to him. I can imagine the readers will notice the reaction of the psychopath is obviously cramping.

Strike three:

Offensive messages from Matthew J. Garrett

DrAxe Matthew J. Garrett decided to continue his trolling, so he must think he is being very clever behind the sockpuppets:

This foul-mouthed, skunky, smelly DrAxe Matthew J. Garrett deserves to be in the prison cells. I believe I can do that, so just be patient, as we will get to that too.

Offensive messages from Matthew J. Garrett

The scumbag Drknife Matthew J. Garrett wants to gas and kill the Jews:

Offensive messages from Matthew J. Garrett

Offensive messages from Matthew J. Garrett

He is proud of himself and calls/frames himself as a hero:

Offensive messages from Matthew J. Garrett

A very proud garbage-filled DrKnife Matthew J Garrett changed his sockpuppet from "HeilHitler" back to "niggernigger":

Offensive messages from Matthew J. Garrett

The idiot DrKnife Matthew J. Garrett is once again trying to provoke:

Offensive messages from Matthew J. Garrett

Dr Roy Schestowitz's reply was, "don't feed the troll". This type of response is pissing off the lunatic DrKnife Matthew J. Garrett, so this only makes him crazier and more aggressive:

Offensive messages from Matthew J. Garrett

Offensive messages from Matthew J. Garrett

Truly he is, once again, showing his true colours; the nerve was struck, so he went back to his beloved sockpuppet "elusive_woman":

Offensive messages from Matthew J. Garrett

By this time "kill the jews" Matthew J. Garrett was sobering up I guess. He claims that he was behind all the sockpuppet.... a shocking revelation. The man finally unmasked himself.

Offensive messages from Matthew J. Garrett

"Really should stop switching between machines that have ctrl in different places".

How many computers is he using? How many networks?

DrAxe Matthew J. Garrett is giving up.

To the FOSS community, Debian community, University of Berkeley and to those innocent people who have been harassed by this person I have a message. Please come forward or communicate with us; an urgent action is needed.

To "gas the jews" DrKnife Matthew J. Garrett: you never have had any intention to stop trolling and writing fabricated stories, keep going... the more you troll, the more you write and so on, the more blog posts you will get. If you have time to waste by pestering and ruining people's lives, I will have the perseverance to write more about you, as I'm not going to stop writing to remind people how horrible and what an evil person you are.
