I'm spending the next week or so to filter out my social media
One local post by a moderator last week had 600 replies. I ended up blocking over 100 accounts because there's enough research out there to explain what's going on, but people are ignoring it and repeating the same rhetoric which has already been explained to them.
I do the same on meme pages where people show crying faces of kids and put "Men £5, women £5, trans people have to pay £10, lol"
Sometimes you search their profile after a witty but edgy post, then you see their fixation with calling Katie Price a b***h, and overly posting about Harvey being disabled. Then the standard Greta needs a shag meme.
Yep, blocked. Same cliche'd bulls**t from the "but I actually have a sense of humour, you should try it" brigade
Can't really block people on here because of how ancient the forum is.
But I'm realising how bad things are for my mental health now.
When I quit the news my life improved greatly, but recently pure hate is the only algorithm on show.
Time to put a stop to it all from now on.
