    Every block enforced your echo chamber, brick by brick.

    This is why i don’t block things in general. How could I possibly have the slightest bit of nuanced idea of what other people talk about, if i just block it?

      Because you read (past tense) it before you blocked it?

      also- It’s certainly not hard to get a nuanced idea of others non-nuanced ideas.

      Or read up on what their ideas are and not engage with the worst version of a person with that belief system.

        That’s the whole point. I don’t want a “past tense” understanding of what is being said and written by “people”.

        Obviously spammers get blocked, cause they make it hard to read. The rest are just words and opinions. All of which I’m perfectly capable of dealing with.
