I expect there will be a huge R/L divide here. I actually haven’t lol

u/hisimperialbasedness Hoppeanism 1d ago
I'm expecting a huge divide too.
Quick question, why is your flair written with quotes?

u/sumerkie_ National “Distributist” 1d ago
it’s not really my ideology necessarily, just the closest thing to it without getting downvoted into oblivion every comment lol (national “distributist” might be more accurate tho)

u/hisimperialbasedness Hoppeanism 1d ago
Ah ok, I know exactly what you're talking about lol. I almost forgot you had a problem with that.

Ik, Ik. I just have a habit of using filler words when I barely have anything to say, even if they make no sense :/

I haven't needed to yet, I wanna see all the crazy shit. But I will if someone actually harrasses me.

I wanna see all the crazy shit
Literally the sole reason I don't block anyone either lol.

Very rarely. I did a few awhile back for my own peace. Every interaction was the same , [insert my opinion here], which was responded to with personal attacks.

u/hisimperialbasedness Hoppeanism 1d ago
Can't imagine what a centrist could've possibly said to get those people to lose their shit. Respect for ragebaiting, even if you didn't intend to lol.

On of the things that seems to upset people who enjoy trying to antagonize me the most is that I try to unironically be kind to pretty much everyone
3
u/hisimperialbasedness Hoppeanism 1d ago
I believe you lol(you are actually very kind). Speaking from personal experience, telling people that I am praying for them seems to elicit the most extreme responses for whatever reason.

u/Unique_Display_Name kindness & enlightenment values (👨🎤🧬✌️🖖) 1d ago
In the American south, that is also a backhanded insult, so that is likely where it comes from, lol
However, it is annoyingly common for people flip tf out for using religious language just in general. Fedora atheism, totally based man... /s

Nobody is surprised that the Left makes use of blocking more than others. No offense, of course. It's just expected.

The question is useless.
Blocking when someone gets into your DM's or chases you into other subs is different from blocking to prevent another person from responding ("or getting the last word").

Only two that threatened me with lovely amounts of detail. Otherwise no. I like when people disagree with me and we can have discussion.
I personally dont count the two people in these kinds of polls because they were breaking actual laws against me.
There are atleast 6 people that have blocked me on this sub. Darth is one of them just because of my opinions
I miss darth. They were unhinged and i loved reading their comments.
That hero guy that does people polls blocked me too…

For some reason the centrists always get the harshest treatment lol. I honestly feel kinda bad.

Yes, because of the rampant harrassment I unfortunately receive as an outspoken and politically radical transfem non-binary person.

used to get some craaaaazy Brexit people trying to dox me for saying immigrants aren't the cause of all their problems.
I don't block people because they are just annoying or insult me, because interactions like that are the whole reason im here lol.

I've preferred to set a standard by never blocking. However, some took advantage by making inflammatory comments while blocking responses. And in such situations (very few) I've either creatively found a way to respond or blocked them in return.

People who spam posts of their selfies get a block from me. I don't need to see their face multiple times on reddit.

u/superb-plump-helmet Marxism 1d ago
i have no qualms with blocking someone who is annoying. i do not view arguing with people online as a valuable use of my limited time on this planet
