Responses that completely destroy the original argument in a way that leaves little to no room for reply - a targeted, well-placed response to another person, organization, or group of people.

The following things are not grounds for murder:

Rules:

  1. Be civil and remember the human. No name calling or insults. Swearing in general is fine, but not to insult someone else.
  2. Discussion is encouraged but arguments are not. Don’t be aggressive and don’t argue for arguments sake.
  3. No bigotry of any kind.
  4. Censor the person info of anyone not in the public eye.
  5. If you break the rules you’ll get one warning before you’re banned.
  6. Enjoy the community in the light hearted way it’s intended.

Because there's no real way to implement blocking on a decentralized platform without severely increasing overhead per post, plus it'd be super easy for any instance to ignore it. I meant what i said when I claimed to understand why it's not on the fediverse. It's a logistical nightmare that would greatly increase the server requirements to host and defeat the intent.

But I still don't see why this makes users the hypocrites.

I also know why it's not on the fediverse but that doesn't mean I support the lack of blocking.
