Infuriating point missage. Best ignored.

that’s fine w/ me but if she makes another bad take she better not complain when i subtweet her
-
She's blocked you so you won't be able to see them. You can cope with other people having different views even if you think they are wrong. People are allowed to be wrong & also to decline to discuss further with you. Don't circumvent blocks in order to force people to hear you.

ive found bad takes behind block walls before. that’s what i do but hey, i’m sure this was an anomaly from her because everyone ive spoken to is shocked about it. so it’s cool
(i’ll keep my screenshots up, though, as receipts. the internet doesnt forget) -
Consider not doing that but respecting that if someone has taken steps not to have contact with you, this is a request to be left alone that you should respect rather than forcing the contact & justifying it with 'But she's really, really wrong.'
-
this is inconsistent logic. i’m blocked by tara mccarthy, as are many others. we shouldnt subtweet her when she says something dumb?
-
No. You should not find ways to circumvent people's blocks even if you really, really disagree with them. If someone takes steps to prevent you from having contact with them, you should not force that contact. Applies even to people who you think morally reprehensible.
-
It’s a normal part of twitter though. To screenshot a tweet & argue against it if you are blocked. It’s not forcing an interaction. It’s arguing points without interacting. I can see why you might disagree with this, though. But it is something quite common on twitter

-
I do disagree with it. I have always disagreed with forcing contact but I now disagree with getting past blocks too because of an escalating problem where people think they have right of access to people they strongly disagree with. Gonna publish on this in a few days.
