"I'm going to stay at the predator party because otherwise there will only be predators at the predator party" is something I almost understand, as a contrary person who will die on the most ridiculous hills... But you know, the quickest way to kill X is to leave them alone. THEY HATE EACH OTHER

they're not gonna just stay there happily without their chosen victims to torment. they literally can't be happy if they're not abusing us. the quickest way to punish them is to remove access to us. there's a reason even Trump can't manic post Truth Social into really mattering.

I’ve been seeing the “you’ll be sorry when they come to Bluesky” posts for two and a half years. The thing is, they HAVE been coming; do people think they’ve been avoiding the site full of libs and queers to harass? 1/2

and it's why just blocking them over here instead of fighting/quote dunking is the truly meanest & pettiest thing you can do to them. folks act like just blocking is some sort of act of maturity or being above it. SHIT NO, I'M SADISTICALLY TORTURING THEM WITH INVISIBILITY. They hate it SO MUCH.

Bluesky does provide us with some great tools for this. Disable repost, hide post, block. I'm trying to remind myself to hide posts before blocking someone, that way no one else sees their awfulness either.

Good news! If you block someone being awful in your thread, no one else gets to see the awful either. We'd still see them if we knew who it was and went directly to their profile and we'll still see them being awful elsewhere, but when you clean up your timeline you clean it for everyone.

Very very occasionally I’ll do a quick dunk then *mute* them so they see it and will keep posting at me, driven mad by my total lack of response and how I’m talking about RHOSLC and don’t care?
