@redsad They can vilify your ideas by attacking you or they can villify your ideas in order to vilify you. Being closed to foreign ideas is only justified when you are the target of their comments and not your ideas. Feel free to attack the pessimists until they learn the lesson not to be pessimistic. Only allow a person access to your property when they have earned access to your property through good deeds, not because they think that they have a right to debate you.

Those attention-starved dorks like to rejoin with a sarcastic "well then why do you have a fence around your yard, lib?" when people say borders are stupid.
Well, if obnoxious wads don't think people should block them and anyone they want, why do they lock their front door? 😁

This thread is revealing for a new guy in the Fedi.
I can see the value of mute if someone is targeting you in direct text but if you make a public post in a public forum and then mute people in the comments section because they don't agree with you, I find that cowardly. It's akin to talking to yourself outloud in public having no respect for the people sitting around you while blaming them for hearing what you are saying to yourself.
I mute porn and spots in my "all" feed. -

@redsad also people who shit into your timeline and then escape to block. These creatures I love the most.

@redsad I say my motive is sheer laziness. Gotta filter thru about 8 billion souls to find fun ones. Can’t be done. So, even just to find the nearby fun ones, “imma need to stop you right here” <block>.

@redsad
Absolutely and ultimately it's up to each of us to define that tolerance. I draw the line at personal attacks but I welcome disagreement. -
@redsad I blocked somebody once but can't recall why. I think I wrote a post about it and everything, it was quite the day.
You can make notes on people's accounts that only you can see. I usually make a note of why I blocked them.

@billyjoebowers @redsad That's handy. I might use that to remind myself why I followed somebody in the first place from now on.

if you keep getting blocked and you don't like it maybe try not being an asshole🤷🏻♀️
Words of wisdom.

@redsad people who say "only cowards block people" just say that because their feeling are hurt that they got blocked and now they're questioning what their purpose is. That's existential dread on their part and not your responsibility, because you're not they're therapist.
