What's the arbitrary line between avoiding people who use slurs vs people who annoy you and make your online experience worse?
I think it's mega presumptuous to judge what other people should tolerate online.
the OP blocked me for my opinion. if you dont think thats goofy, i dont know what to tell you.
That's exactly my point though. Neither you nor I know how much your comment annoyed him. Only he gets to decide how much of a thing he should tolerate online.
I have NSFW content filtered but I still block the anime feed and Church of Thighentology comms because they aren't NSFW but I still don't want to see sexualized anime images in my feed.
I block communities related to leather and eating animal flesh because I'm not really interested in seeing dead bodies.
Am I being goofy? Do I only get to explore what's new in the fedverse if I view sexualized or distressing material?
yeah i think blocking people for their opinion is goofy, i stand by that. i dont really want to argue about it. im glad you have the control in place to filter your feed in that manner.
