This is the end of discourse on Poal.

I could let it slide on individual subs, but this is too far; ideas gone unmolested is the promotion of cancer... I suppose that I will have to find a new home.

EDIT: I propose the following solution.

Instead of outright blocking individual users, their replies and conversations are INSTEAD automatically collapsed so that their speech is not infringed upon by allowing the choice to see it, and that those blocking them don't have to see it if they choose not to.

See for petition to change it.

I have not blocked you. Actually, I think you're in my top 10 favorite posters on here.

Also, I don't use the on-site block function at all anymore and instead use uBlock filters to completely hide submissions and/or comments and/or messages/notifications of comments for users. Going this route in blocking I am able to completely hide just from my own screen people that I personally find too irritating or who regularly post things that are of no interest or intellectual value to me and are just a waste of my time without infringing on anyone else's ability to post and comment whatever the hell they want.

I'm up to 78 now (not including deleted comments which I have set to also be completely hidden).
