This trolling is very annoying. In addition there is always the name calling (“facist”, “bigot”,…) by this user and it seems it is @SupportTransPeople that was banned.
Admins and I have known for long that they are SupportTransPeople, and I have a concise theory that fits what they are attempting. They know what ideas and viewpoints Lemmy users stand for, and are making troll accounts with those as usernames and writing edgy comments to destroy discussions and make Lemmy look bad to newcomers.
I was thinking the same…It seems the old saying remains true - don’t feed the trolls. Also, I was almost waiting for a post on reddit/etc. claiming they were banned froom lemmy because of all the “bigots” here. :/ I hope this kind of tactics are not successful. Thanks for all the great work on this community!
There are particular people that are attempting to practice reverse troll accusation, a new tactic. Trolls are evolving.
A recent example is @ArtilectZed@lemmy.ml , who called me a troll of no value and blocked me so that I could not even respond. Funnily, he accused me of something that soferman did, who I exposed and drove out of Lemmy.

ArtilectZed, a new troll
who actually made the fake community
Who I exposed few months ago: https://lemmy.ml/post/69058
He ended up banned? Aleluya. But yeah this account is really similar.
