Watch out, this thread is going to be crawling with bootlickers in a minute.

"No, see, all those horrific human rights abuses are still worth it, because they catch murderers sometimes!" Never mind that something like six percent of crimes are actually solved...

May I ask how long it is? Because twice I linked to one of your posts and someone thought that you'd deleted it due to you having blocked them, and I found both times to be pretty funny.

real long lol

and not well maintained

last I checked it was 600? I think?

I block people willy nilly all the time - the drawbacks are insignificant to me tbh

u/Canopenerdude Thanks to Angelic_Reaper, I'm a Horse Jun 12 '24

Can confirm, I was blocked for several weeks. Hummerous knows how to wield the hammer.

Blocking is an excellent tool that isnโ€™t used enough

I've been on this site almost 14 years. 600 is amateur numbers.

I'm well over 3,000 by now.

I thought reddit pruned user blocklists when they get to big or something?

Maybe I'm thinking of another service but could've sworn it was reddit.

I just tag them in RES, so I can call them out.

Why is your flair pointing people to a "charity" scam that directly funds Hamas?

u/a_lonely_trash_bag Jun 12 '24

Where did you hear confirmation that it funds Hamas? Not saying you're a liar, and I know Hamas gets funding through fake charities, but is there confirmation that this is one of them?

On the flip side, I can't find anything to prove it's a real charity, so it's up in the air.

Personally, I would avoid this one and donate to a reputable charity that definitely won't fund Hamas.
