What do you think of users that block everyone who doesn’t answer in the way they want and who doesn’t agree with their opinions?

[Anonymous]

Lmfao. There’s people who block like 99% of the sites they go on. It’s hilarious.

I have only blocked 2 people in my time here. Both were blocked yesterday. One started bragging to me in DM's that he was sexually abusing his three daughters. He got reported to GaG, blocked and the conversation was deleted because it was disgusting. And the other responded to one of my opinions and was incredibly rude and a bully. At first, I didn't block him, I replied that he needed to act like a grown-up and be respectful. He sent another bullying reply and I blocked him. I don't believe in bullying and will not stand for being bullied myself anymore or standing by and watching someone else being bullied.

Although, I know that many have blocked me. And my opinion on that is... I don't care, I was not put on this planet for everyone to like. For most of my life, I have been bullied and made fun of because of my weight... now at almost 50 years of age, I have reached the point in my life that I really don't give a shit what anyone thinks about me. I am here to tell you what I think, my opinion, and my point of view. If you don't like it, you can tell me that... I'm okay with that. But don't be disrespectful, rude, or throw insults at me. Or if you truly are an adult you could just keep scrolling and move your ass on to the next comment.

I post my opinions, my thoughts, and my experiences. I won't lie because I have no reason to lie. I don't know any of you, wouldn't know you if I passed you on the street so why lie? That's just stupid.

[love_conquers_lust]

Jesus Christ. I’ve been sent footage that was way too extreme and dangerous for my taste.

[Hawkes_Lady]

@love_conquers_lust What do you mean? You've been sent things worse than talking to a pedophile? Yikes! Or are you saying that you've gotten worse and not blocked them?

[love_conquers_lust]

Depends on one’s opinion. It had to do with inflicting excessive pain to women for pleasure, way too extreme for my test, technically not illegal but looked more harmful.

No, I didn’t block. I’m a guy. I’ve moved dead bodies before for work. We’re supposed to have strong constitutions. It’s a double standard that I don’t mind.

I don’t really doubt women on here get flooded with garbage that’s a different order of magnitude compared to guy’s experience, ceteris paribus. I think some guys are just stupid and don’t stop to consider that when they justify it to themselves that it’s just one comment, 50 other guys said the same thing to themselves. I’ve been guilty of it a few times myself, though it was in relation to politics. I have never been verbally attacked by a woman on here, debated, but not attacked, as far as I’m aware.

I rarely block people no matter how much I hate their opinions. I’ve been on and off GAG for 10 years now. Maybe blocked 4-5 people altogether/all-time and it’s always because I had hit a breaking point with themselves

However some people do much more than just block on GAG. 2 months ago there was a censorship “posse” on here who were consisted far leftist censorship communist types. They were flagging and removing virtually anything that even remotely went against their ideologies. The especially censored any criticism of feminism but they also were quick to flag anything any critical of leftist viewpoints was quickly taken down. I bet they all worked at pre-Musk Twitter.

Anyway I believe it was a group of 4-5 young women and one was a moderator who later lost her privileges (thank you GAG for resolving that).

The the only time I’ve ever reported a post on here is if it was someone bullying or worse talking inappropriately to a minor. Also just name calling on here with no context will be flagged. I’ve been called every name in the book on GAG but as long as I get to fight back I don’t mind having a fight. But if some rando trolls me for no good reason or context I’ll flag their posts. But if there was a lead up to the fight that’s different.

But other than that I 100% believe in freedom of speech no matter how much I hate the opposing party’s views. “Safe spaces” are for the weak and pathetic. But some people on GAG don’t believe in freedom of speech at all and that’s not an exaggeration.

I'm 1 of them... but it's not because of a personal opinion. I've probably got several hundred people on here blocked, and 98 percent of them are female. If you give a typical American answer-youre outta there, as far as I'm concerned. Americans can't critically think, they don't WANT to learn anything new... tbh, they're anyone educational and as closed minded and intolerant as Hitler. They don't give a "differing opinion" as you say. They insult you, cuss at you, put laughing emojis, type a bunch of jealous, divisive, hateful crap that sounds regurgitated from a rapper or celebrity on tv... and the VAST majority haven't lived all around their OWN country, let alone lived in other countries. So their personal experience on a global scale, is virtually zero. That's why they type what they do. 98 percent of the perpetrators of this-are females from the U. S. It's EASY to tell who they are, by their very first response too. I'm not wasting time bantering back and forth with an empty mind that's intolerant, has VERY limited experience, and thinks they're a celebrity because they've sold content, smoked weed and fucked a few wannabe gangsters. They don't have anything worthwhile to add.

[provokeesmokee]

I don't care.

If anything I think they're as cool as the people who block no one.

They know how they want to use social media apps and they curate their feeds as they wish.

[strateguy632]

i think they are coward who can't bear to see opposed opinions. it is those people who misuse authority to hide opinions with excuses: troll offensive nonsense and many other unjustified excuses.

[Asker]

It’s ridiculous and silly. Nobody takes such a person serious.

[BoopBoopBeep]

Fine by me. We probably won't interact much, and they seem pretty uptight/unhinged if they're doing this, so I'm not really missing out.

[Asker]

I laugh my butt off at this behavior

[BoopBoopBeep]

Yeah I wonder how they make it through real life... which of course doesn't have buttons.

[Asker]

Lmao it’s mind boggling. One. Kim’s to be confident and successful. I’m like how does that make sense

[TheSpaceGnome]

Doesn't bother me. Seems like a trivial thing to concern myself with.

Better to talk to and focus on people I get along with, than it is to worry about why people I don't get along with suddenly dissapeared or no longer communicate with me.

[Iron_Man]

Is that how they go through life in person as well lame

[Asker]

🤣🤣🤣🤣

[Iron_Man]

😂 ….

[Asker]

They look silly to me

[Iron_Man]

Yes, exactly

[Asker]

I can’t take people like that serious

[Iron_Man]

Yes for sure

[love_conquers_lust]

I have yet to block someone. I don’t silence opinions, it makes mine look that much better.

On a side note, I have a double standard. I don’t mind actual girls blocking as opposed to guys. I understand given some of the horrible things said by men on here.

[Longshanks1968]

Good riddance to them. It's better than when sites like this one remove posts they don't like or someone complained about.
The complainer can block it and be done forever but when the site removed your words, it's called censorship and its not right.
It's a form of brain washing people, not allowing other ideas just cuz a couple are offended, requiring haters to deal with it or ignore what they don't want to see.

[OfDeath]

Just narcissists.

Sometimes I block people for just a few days to give them a chance to calm down and then I unblock them.

It isn't just for disagreeing, it's only for those really long threads where someone just keeps replying to try and get the last word with no intention of having a mature discussion.

[Dinklex3]

Indifferent.

People can block whoever they want for whatever petty reason they want.

Why does it matter who a stranger blocks?

[MrOracle]

Those types usually don't last very long - after they block everyone, the site gets boring for them, and they drift away to a new place.

[love_conquers_lust]

Probably best for them anyway

[CaptainOverthink]

They create their own echo-chamber.
I wouldn't say it's good in the longterm but it sure is their choice.
They probably won't be my preferred type of company but I won't push them away either.

[Anonymous]

Good riddance, better than wasting our time by arguing like karens with us lol

[HiveBee]

That's OK. I say very offensive things. I hope they are mad.

[SUMAIREBRAHIM]

😂😂😂I'm find them weird...
This is supposed to be honest interaction if they want sugarcoated nonsense answers n no serious advice then why come here?

[Itreallydoesntmatter]

Or what about admins who freeze people's accounts who answer honestly? Because that's just as cowardly.🤗

[red324]

Reminds me of most of the women on the online dating apps. You say one thing they don't like or agree with and you're blocked 😂

[Unit1]

nothing. I block them back so they do not show up to me. To me they are worthless nobodies.

[Nemesis2k7]

Bait. Its peoples choice to block someone or block any website they want. Are you paying their internet bill? didn't think so.

[Anonymous]

I see them as people who are the opposite of me, who has never "blocked " another person for any reason. As the type of people who can't take criticism, or listen to views that don't match their own

[Nifrayu]

I don't think much of it. I apparently got block by at least two people and have no idea why.

[dudeinohio]

I think they suck. . I get blocked a lot.

[Asker]

Same. I find it silly. I can’t take people like that serious.

[dudeinohio]

Absolutely

[Asker]

There’s one person who blocks like 90% of the site it seems and deletes answers all the time. At that point why not just message the few users you want to talk to, rather than block everyone except them? It’s retarded.

[dudeinohio]

Yeah
