Also, I don't want any dealings with you at all. Also, quite acceptable.

Not "I don't want any dealings w/ you at all *in public*". Not for you to decide.

Yes, it is! Who else gets to decide who I have dealings with on social media if not me?!

Nate, u saying this is a public forum so no one should block others (even if abusive?) Your personal Twitter rules aren't universal.

I've already clarified that I'm ok w/ Block for abuse (so long as that's not equated to "annoying", "time wasting", etc).

Anything that impedes the free exchange of ideas I will block for. But I support people blocking for any reason to make their Twitter theirs

Blocking is itself an impediment to free xchange of ideas, not a solution for impediments. I agree, it's trying to make a public space yours

It can be if you're blocking sets of ideas rather than people who can't have discussions of them. I don't but that's OK too.

How can you know in the future what a given person will be able to discuss? If person X can't learn, what are we doing here at all?

Maybe they'll change in the future but I am no obligation to wait for them to. If they pester me pointlessly too often, I cut off from them

I will not try to ban them from speaking generally & they are not denied free speech because I choose not to engage with them.
