It’s not fun interacting with them when they often want to engage in ad hominems. This is why I have no interest in the tankie triad.

      That would allow them to continue being assholes unabated without anyone defending me. They’ve already shown themselves to barge in on my comments and posts with lies.

      I just just bury my head in the ground and pretend that’s not happening?

        Blocking is a normal way to avoid interacting with people you don’t want to.

        Hexbear or lemmygrad users could be talking about you without you seeing it due to defederation, it’s not that different

          it’s not that different

          It’s significantly different. The people in my own instance and the instances that it federates with all see it. It’s directly attached and connected with my post/comment. Anyone who sees my post/comment sees their lies, too.

          With defederated instances, it’s like x users talking shit about threads users.

          Blocking is a normal way to avoid interacting with people you don’t want to.

          The main issue is that I don’t want them interacting with me. I have no problems not interacting with them until they start shit.

            Why do you care? Or, if you care enough, why not bear the burden?

            There’s no ideal solution

              The ideal situation is for them to leave me alone. Why is that not an option?

                  Open forums that anyone can use are obviously a conspiracy now. Next up, public conversations are proof people talk to each other to collaborate.

                  Can you tell me where I mentioned Flatworm/Unruffled in this thread? https://lemmy.world/post/32430859
                  Did I mention the others from dbzer0, other than the offending user the thread is about, that came in to talk shit about me?

                  Did I mention Flatworm/Unruffled or Eugene here where they spouted lies and started shit? https://lemmy.world/post/33338615/18389370

                  Was I really being so rude and mean by saying “That has not been my experience at all” that made it okay for them to treat me like that?

                  Why are you defending these people for being such assholes?

                    You were complaining about vote manipulation, Unruffled commented saying they had banned the alts used for vote manipulation.

                    Maybe we’re not defending we’re seeing someone be angry and upset for no reason and asking them to calm down.
