    You’ve actually acted like more of a jerk responding to this whole thing than anyone else.

    Mmmmmm the scandal. I’m always surprised that blocked posts don’t give some kind of context that a post is missing.

    I prefer it because I have no self control, I basically only block people that rile me up and not because I think they're bad or stupid, I'm just not always emotionally equipped to deal with certain posters and if there was a function that would let me know i'm not seeing a post I would click it.

    though full disclosure I don't have anyone on here blocked.

    I used to not do it but then I realized it's pretty great not seeing some of the asinine garbage that gets posted on here far too often. It's been pretty ok so far.

    I am absolutely here for an online civility debate while I should be working. Let's go.

    The first user was (to me) obviously rude. Came in too hot. Absolutely open to ridicule. But they also expressed a clear desire to not be quoted back into the thread. Regardless of how hot they came in or how rude they were, I contend that it was rude to quote them back in twice.

    And I don't really see a problem, in certain contexts, with saying: "Yeah, I knew the user's wishes but they were being a jerk so screw it, I'll be a jerk too."

    Yeah, I liked a handful of posts and then made a harmless joke not quoting or tagging anyone and immediately got lumped in with “y’all jerks” as if I’ve even done anything in the first place

    I feel like at this point we're all just ganging up on supernovagirl and I don't think this mild difference of opinion regarding forum etiquette is worth this tension.

    Yeah I’ve never used it either. Does it work both ways where they can’t see your posts as well? Of course I also didn’t realize unfollowed threads still gave notifications after being quoted so I clearly haven’t used quite a few features here.

    People you block can still see your posts. Also you can block threads which removes them from the forum list and prevents you from getting notifications from them as well. I've done that a few times also!

    I also make liberal use of the block user and ignore thread function. I come here for very specific diversions while at work, don't really need to see stuff that derails my day by making me irrationally angry.

    Wasn’t at all my intention to be rude in the first place. The original poster very clearly intended to be so, and I asked a serious question that I would have liked an answer to: how is someone possibly supposed to know that you unsubscribed to a thread?

    Had that poster not responded to me in a rude and disrespectful way like they also did previously, I wouldn’t have replied at all. But saying “who even are you...” is a comment that is designed to illicit a response, is it not? When you speak that way for no reason, I think it’s fair to say you can’t exactly expect someone to respect your wishes here, and they shouldn’t have to.

    I’m really, really failing to see how that could possibly be misconstrued as “shitty” behaviour.

    the "deep message" of this film can be summed up in that one shot of the black bloc-esque protestor carrying a sign reading "RESIST" which shows as much head-ass awareness as the Kylie Jenner Pepsi protest commercial.

    this post has more depth than Joker

    I thought the Chapo episode on Joker highlighted some fairly good points regarding how the movie accidentally says a few things about class consciousness, but having watched the movie myself I feel like there was a lot of projecting going on, but if you want to see it, it's definitely there.
