Do u believe that blocking someone online is childish ? 🐥 🐥 🐥

Or do you think it's immature.
Sure people say things that are over the top.
They say things that are abusive.
Some of them may even be rude
or crass to the highest degree.
But when you block someone because you
actually lost an argument or debate
you're just in your feelings.
Your feelings got hurt.
But does that mean you should block.
What if the person is unaware of
how much your feelings got hurt. One thing about social media is that people can be oversensitive. They can be brats. They can be game players.
Or try to get in your head. But blocking
someone because they beat you in a debate means you lost. Or if they don't agree with you you take it personal. Really. Do you believe that blocking someone online is childish. Otherwise I can understand if you are harassed to the extreme.

Everyone is different. Once you truly understand that, there is no need to block.

Been on this site since 2016 haven't found a need to block.

Been on the internet since 1994 and only needed to block once. And that was because of a real stalker, that I thought she knew me.

Can't say a friend, because she harassed all my other friends every time they messaged me in the open. Calling them nasty names.

@DeWayfarer I only block in extreme cases. Otherwise it's very rare that I do. But to do it casually is a sign that some may have some deeply unresolved personal issues they need to work out on their own. 🙂

@Zonuss that was the only extreme case I have come across.

I really dislike others calling my friends nasty names. There simply was no call for it. That was purely personal.

@Zonuss i dont agree. what we choose to view can impact our thoughts and therefore our lives. persistent unpleasant content can and should be blocked. there are some major repeat offenders on here. who wants to see repetitive bullshit by weirdo one track minders?

@Penny As I said everyone is different. 😞

No two people are the same.
Penny · 46-50, F
@DeWayfarer yes but how does that mean there is no need to block? many are one individual who post the same stupid crap over and over.
DeWayfarer · 61-69, M
@Penny because everyone's perceptions are not the same.

What is good for the lion, is not good for the deer, is not good for the blade of grass.

Which has the advantage? Rock, scissors or paper?
Zonuss · 46-50, M
@Penny That's understandable. But are people really that soft and easily irritated. I just ignore them. 😂
