I got blocked for commenting on someones question, is this nuts?

[Anonymous]

All i did was comment on their question, and they blocked me. Why? Doesn't this seem a little nuts to you

And it happened not minutes after that one, too

What is going on here, why are people so pathetic?

[Adam1978]

There is some nut jobs here that only accept their own ecochamber. If you don't agree with them they delete your posts and blocks you. So it's normal, why it's allowed I can't understand. It goes against the whole idea of gag in my opinion. It's about getting the full range of opinions.

[Asker]

There's a moderator on here who does that

[Adam1978]

Who ever claimed that moderators are picked because they are good at it. It's probably just based on activity. It's free work after all.

[Asker]

Yep!

[AmandaYVR]

It's not "because" you commented, but "what" you commented. Which you do not specify at all. Which means that you probably are still unaware of how social media, or people in the social media world, function.

It's a [quite often ugly] game of popularity, tribalism, and speaking of one's mind but also learning to either not gaf about others' reactions, or how not to offend the overly-offended. You make a choice. And often, this is a sliding scale, adjusted over time.

[menina]

That happened to me once or twice. The asker probably didn't like what you said. There's also a chance that they blocked you accidentally.

[hahahmm]

There's some sensitive people who don't want anyone to disagree with them. It's usually the weakest people who have weak arguments/no way to defend themselves with words so they start blocking.

Although I can understand blocking someone if they keep trolling you endlessly.

[MzAsh]

What was your comment that you left?

[Asker]

Nothing "insulting", if that's what you're implying

[MzAsh]

I’m not implying anything. It’s a question.

[Guy13]

Can’t disagree ESPECIALLY if an ANON. Have to interpret how they are thinking the answers should be… GAG experience from someone who wants to vent and be reinforced Right…. 🤷🏻‍♂️🤷🏻‍♂️ Gag experience

[NewsReader]

It happens to all of us. I am blocked by at least two people and had many answers deleted. Sometimes I think there is no purpose of being on this site.

[LexiXide]

Was it a hate comment or something cause it would be pretty understandable if you're comment was hateful or rude

[Jacobbbb]

Some people are just snowflakes out here don't take it too personally lol

[ethanallen]

I am surprised how frequently i get blocked.

[Dargil]

People don't want to hear opposing opinions.

[Anonymous]

I was blocked by one guy who claims that people who block are cowards. lol.

[Asker]

WoW!

[Fromdusktilldawn]

Did you use curse words or said something controversial?

[Asker]

Nope

[Anonymous]

Not surprised. And the further left and feminist they lean, theore common it is.

[Opinion Owner]

There was a user who had secret in her user name who blocked me, and it was because I disagreed with her... I didn't insult, put her down, or anything else. She just blocked me.. Fragile.

[Asker]

Exactly

[AmandaYVR]

She's not a feminist. That user is notorious for that. She's got PTSD and is extremely trigger-happy. It's a rite of passage to be blocked by her. Just forget about it.

[Opinion Owner]

I can't believe you know who I'm talking about

[AmandaYVR]

I've read, and been told many times in PM, about her, and had my own experiences with her.
It's sad the chaos certain users can cause. It makes decent people waste unnecessary emotional energy questioning themselves, and what they did wrong, and if they can legitimately find nothing, they come to the conclusion that everyone's reactionary. Then to try to understand and rationalize, they go for what they know, or what they guess people to be - age, gender, sexuality, political affiliations, etc etc.
But she's a specific case, trust me. She doesn't represent all pinks. She's a war vet, suffered brain trauma, and has admitted (occasionally) to being reactionary.
Sometimes there are extenuating circumstances. Be careful about applying broad conclusions to groups, that should really be just attributed to the one.
Anyway, just like Robin Williams said to Matt Damon in Good Will Hunting, "It's not your fault."

[Opinion Owner]

Man I had my own suspicions but wow.. Same thing happened with another user that had brains and beauty in her name.. Suddenly one day she just turned on me. Like a light switch.

And no I don't view all pinks the same, especially not you and the ones I've come to be friends with. Just the shitty ones.

[AmandaYVR]

Yep, some people (and yes, they are more often pinks) don’t handle conflict and differences of opinion well. They also won’t allow their gender to be critiqued. Sad. As long as one doesn’t personally attack and keeps it civil, social discourse must continue. Echo chambers serve no one.

[Opinion Owner]

@AmandaYVR agreed!

[Asker]

@AmandaYVR Agreed

[Anonymous]

Thats how sjws do it. Not only here, but on twitter too.

[RolandCuthbert]

Y'all are some whiny little freaks.

[ArtemisSilver]

Guess they didn't like the answer LoL

[SunnyHeythere]

That's norm here
