    I don’t think you understand why they’re asking you to do the blocking.

    If you block them you don’t see them and you don’t respond. Your inability to see that secondary effect is why you are what you are.

        It will clean it because you won’t have a reason to comment.

        This secondary effect really does explain why y’all can’t see beyond a purity test.

          all they gotta do is block me and it won’t matter if I comment. I’m not there one who has problems with others being wrong on the Internet. it’s them who should do the blocking.

          My favorite part is how they think they understand. They always think they do.

          Indistinguishable from arguing with an above average Trump supporter. Or religion for a less inflammatory comparison.

          Its called Believe Perseverance. What’s weird is how widely it get applied. We’re not even talking about specific ideologies but it’s still being used as a defense mechanism.
