    I don’t have time to write a rebuttal to every mouthpiece with an opinion. Down voting is a quick way to disagree.

          You’ve responded to my every comment so far. Seems like you’re the one who doesn’t know how language works because you think you can tell other people how to use it.

          Which is fine, because not only do I know how language works, I know how the block feature works too. Now get lost, troll.

            Wow. You complained about a petty downvote, then responded with an insult and “I’m going to block you”. Incredible cognitive dissonance here. If a silent downvote was petty, what else could be more petty?

            And just to drive home my point, I’m also going to block *you *after I post this!

            Conversation is such a fucking waste of time in this place.

            While I agree with most of your comments in this post, performative blocking reminds me of why I stopped using Mastodon much: so many grandstanding block proclamations over there, which just increases general toxicity with ego and spite.

        Imagine if you got 12 comments telling you that you are wrong instead of 12 downvotes. That sure would be better!
