    Yep, that’s how we roll. Others can tell you the details. I’m just an end user. On my end I can block nazi’s, or anyone I don’t like. u/universalmonk was one, acted so surprised when I blocked and didn’t want to explain why. Funny thing, if you can block someone for being an asshat, suddenly they are less encouraged to do that, and have to find a more socially acceptable way to be. Cheers.

      Links to that? Because I’ve never seen Universal Monk act surprised when someone blocked him/her.

      In fact, he/she often recommended blocking them if you didn’t agree with what they said.

        daily reminder that you can just use they/them in place of he/her she/him pronouns because that’s literally a designed feature of the english language.

            All I did was ask for a link showing that UM was surprised or upset that you blocked her/him, because I’ve never seem them question that before. I always seem to remember them suggesting blocking them, not being upset by it.

            I didn’t say you were incorrect; i was just asking for proof cuz I’ve never seen it. It’s not like I am super concerned about it or anything. But I don’t live on lemmy and have no investment between your feud–or whatever it is–with that person. not a big deal to me either way

              Give it up, Monk. You’re not fooling anyone.
