I don't really block people tbh. I don't want to be blind to ideas, if we all banned stuff we don't like then we'll never have constructive criticism are strong arguments.

I've argued with sophisticated capitalists and genocidists to recognize them in the wild, that they're going to present the same arguments (or not) but seasoned with contemptuous invective, and they are not going to care what I say or argue in good faith.

It's up to them to find their way out of their cognitive rat trap, as I can't navigate it for them.
