What is it with all the blocking?

@Jackjjacksonjr: Apparently I was too much for WINNER to handle today

@Niburu:

Perhaps that makes you the winner lol.

@Niburu: oh. Yeah. WINNER blocked me a couple of days ago. All I did was ask him to clarify what he said as I didn't understand what he meant. I done even recall what it was now, but he doesn't like being questioned.

These are EXACTLY my reasons too why I block people. Not because of politics, gender or whatever but because they are rude or insulting.

@TheOneyouwerewarnedabout I guess I'm a wimp. But

@xxxxxx: yeah that

@xxxxxx: lolz.. excellence :)

I get blocked at least once a day..but so far as i can tell not yet today..but its still early

I don't understand that. You're awesome. 😊

@Serenitree: I'm so sorry he's an idiot. He's considerably nicer to look at than than M. le Donald. 😉

@bijouxbroussard: his latest faux pas was at a town meeting in Quebec. Yes. Quebec is a francophone province, but there is a huge English population there. Whether or not they are bilingual, doesn't matter. He is the PM of Canada. Not the president of a local chapter of Francs'R'Us.
(I made that up. It doesn't exist)

At that meeting he was answering questions. He didn't have a translator there. When an English person asked a question, he answered in French. Not French first, then English. Nobody there to translate his words for the English population. Big mistake. The rest of Canada has a very large English population. Far larger than French. People are not impressed; mostly because, when he has been asked a question in French in other parts of Canada, he answers in French, then he repeats the question in English and answers it in English.

What happened at that meeting in Quebec, was at the very least, favouritism, and at worst, bigotry. His excuse was lame. I can't recall his whole speech about it, but the gist was, "in Quebec we speak French"

@bijouxbroussard:

In 2011, English was the mother tongue of nearly 58% of the population of Canada (or 19.1 million persons), and French was that of nearly 22% (or 7.2 million persons). As for the language most often spoken at home, English was spoken by 66% of the population and French by 21%

Yes, me neither. However, there is a difference in blocking for opposing views and blocking for name calling or verbal abuse.

@Bean17: i dont block for that either..

@Damagedgoods: Well I haven't yet, but I sure reserve the right to..

Whoever blocked you was extremely thin skinned. You politely advocate your positions and occasionally interject some relevant facts 🇺🇸

@Jackjjacksonjr: I speak nothing but facts ;-). I think some right-wing Americans can't handle a smart-arsed left-wing Brit. I get it actually.

For what allegedly?
