What does Moby mean? Is it LGF specific or some sort of broader net thing?

Mobys are liberals posing as extremist wacko righties to discredit the right generally. Strategy named for Moby, who endorsed it.

I must say I have never actually encountered a moby in the wild.

The LGF usage of it appears to have meant anything at all from ‘person endorsing positions intended to make LGF look bad’ to the ordinary meaning of ‘internet troll’ to ‘liberal I don’t like’.
