When I was new to reddit, I would go back and forth with literal autists (I later checked their post histories) for extended periods of time, pulled into their world of shit. I realized that engaging was always the wrong answer, and that every minute of my life wasted on such people was a fail on my part.

No doubt, it's entertaining though.

Constantly being barraged with insults and vitriol wears on a person, even if it is only an individually tiny amount. It's like a poison that accumulates. Now, if you're trolling, that's different. If you're trolling, it becomes hilarious to trigger people. Anyway, I adapted as follows:

If that is actually true for you, then yes, go right ahead and block them. I see why you were so obstinate about not unblocking people, though in Reddit context, I don't think it is justified due to admin shenanigans.

On r-4chan, the main sub I comment on because no one approves me on r-KIA2

Did you not manage to get approval from evil?

Do you still think I was biased against you?

After you've blocked a few dozen haters, you actually will have killed off the majority of your downvoters, which means your comments get more traction and rise faster, so they reach greater heights.

Not sure I like that idea.

It also reduces the number of reports against you since, again, you're blocking your haters from even seeing you.

I do like this idea very much. I wish we could block people from even viewing a sub.
