So if you were having dinner in a restaurant with your special someone [just pretend you have one if you have to] and I simply don't like you (and not because you were a nazi or a politician trying to strip me of healthcare—both categories of people should be ran out of public at every chance—I just didn't like you) you would have no problem with me sitting down at your table and butting in to your conversation to say you were wrong about the truffle butter?
If you were having dinner and said how much you liked your steak well-done—in public mind you—you wouldn't mind if I kept telling everyone around you that you're a piece of shit who ruins cuts of meat?
Is not a matter if I have a problem or not. You can make a scene in public all you want, the place staff will ask you to leave if you do not behave accordingly to social norms
So you want to rely on the staff to maintain your peace?
You wouldn't want to have me fuck off at the press of a button?
Sounds like your way is what I described with extra steps.
Yeah, is their responsibility
That's what the block button does. We already told you multiple times blocking is working as intended. You simply are behaving like a Karen
Block button closes your eyes. I'd still be there not fucking off.
Interesting the person advocating for keeping arguments going is calling the person who wants to be able to end them a karen.
If I block you you, then you are invisible to me. I don't care about what you do if I don't have to bear with you.
If you are a troll or someone who who systematically breaks the rules, people will report you and the staff (the mods) will tell you to fuck off, by banning you
That sounds like the same justification one sibling uses to justify hovering a finger a millimeter away from another sibling's face:
"You can't tell 'cause I'm not touching you!"
Except for the fact I will never see or touch that finger because I made it to vanish
You closed your eyes.
and it works!!
Everyone else sees a dude making rude gestures behind your head.
and why should I care? is not my problem anymore. Maybe you should learn to give zero fucks about what others do instead to overreact
Edit. I have a nice song from the Simpsons for you

So to be clear, you'd be fine with someone following you around with a sign stating you fuck dogs, so long as you couldn't see it?
Yes, It says more about that person than about me.
Imagine not having anything better to tho than follow me with a sign... that's really REALLY lame, I'm a nobody, following a nobody would be beyond pathetic. Why would I spend any energy on someone who is willing to downgrade themself to that level? I have pride, I'm worth more than that.
At the end that person will got tired of following me and not receiving any attention that they will leave because I did not give that person any power over me.
It says you fuck dogs about you, and a bunch of people will see you not challenging the assertion because they don't know you can't see it.
They might think you fuck dogs, or ask you about fucking dogs constantly and then you have to bust out your "Not Involved In Fucking Dogs" T-shirt but we both now that will lead people to asking questions already answered by the shirt.
But I don't, and I know it, that's more than enought. The only opinion I care is my very own opinion
If people is too dumb to believe that it's a waste of time to try to convince them. I don't waste my time with dumb people
You're wasting your time on my dumb ass.
Nah, we are maintaining a civilized conversation. As soon as you start insulting me I'll block you, don't worry
I tried that once and—as triggered this entire thread—notification from replies continued to vex me.
I would also—while not knowing how you typically utilize your time—dispute that you aren't wasting it.
You could be learning Mandarin right now and instead you're conversing with an annoying faggot.
Whatever bloats your moat, I guess.
