As an aside, I've never understood why people announce they're blocking someone, unsubscribing, etc. Nobody cares except you. What's even more weird is when someone claims "I'm blocking you" then keeps arguing with that person.
Example:
And here you are two hours later still responding to the person you "blocked."
For someone being so pedantic about the definition and misuse of a word you seem to be doing the same thing you're complianing about: using a word to be misleading.
Blocking means you don't engage with that user in any way anymore. You mislead us into believing you were going to block someone (as weird as that is to announce it) and continue to debate that person.
I have no opinions on the debate you're having, I just felt the need to point out your hypocrisy.
You have reading comprehension issues since the person I'm replying to here is not the same person I blocked.
My bad, I didn't notice it was someone else.
My point still stands that it's weird that you keep announcing you're blocking someone. You do it a lot.
