Blocking keeps my feed nice. See people being assholes? Block them. See a post discussing something I don't want to hear about? Block them. See a community I don't want to hear about? Block them. The greatest thing about social media is the ability to never have to interact with someone again at no detriment to them. Blocking is good.

Why block them when you can just not argue with them?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 4 days ago

Because they are wrong. And they need to be shown the error of their ways. You don't get to 150wpm by being nice and casual on the internet, no sir.
