MODERATORS
questions and statements like this are creating drama. block users and communities that you don't like and go with your day.
I used to think of “blocking” as an extreme measure, but for us individuals, it’s really not. You get to decide what your feed looks like. Especially here.
BAMO -> block and move on
What flipped the mental switch for me was facebook, of all places.
I hate it and was off it for years, then we moved to a small town with no subreddit, only a damn fb group. Man I went on a blocking spree with all the proudly terrible people, and now I have both an actually useful local town group AND a separate handy list of people I don’t need to bother meeting.
