After an incident where anti-loli false flaggots got an account wrongfully banned for cp, ottman decided to ban loli by making false arguments similar to what 8chan owner jim watkins and gab owner andrew torba made.
Minds userbase is having none of it, and are actively calling ottman out for lying while demanding this decision be reversed.
new edit: ottman is having a meltdown, calling people bots and deleting posts.
edit: the mods need to consider banning the anti-loli spergs on this site for pointless infighting.
Not speaking to this issue specifically, but while this might be a nice feature, it will not placate those who want to shut down the platform for allowing views they don't like. It's not like they ever took advantage of Twitter's block function instead of calling for people they didn't even interact with to be kicked off the platform.
They don't want to ignore you, they want to silence you.
i know it's more to make it so those who are actually wanting to filter it out can and gives a convenient use the block list shut up to use
