Wow I just checked and I’m blocked by 101! I think most of that is when i was called a fascist the other day for daring to say we need to at least need to appear to be in some control of our border to avoid the rise of people like Farage (eg safe routes and quick processing)
There are a few people who blocked me who have never interacted with me. Some people are blocking people because they are following someone they don't like. Which is mad, because many people follow others for all kinds of reasons.
Instead of my own handle, I put in the handle of the first almost-certainly-a-real-human who first blocked me when I joined. They're blocking 72,000 accounts.
a) I no longer feel special
b) I think blocking people is basically their full time job.
😂 Do you block back? When I'm bored I sometimes do, and tbh the blockers often seem to be quite deranged.
I can only aspire to the level you've reached!
There are some 'auto block' lists (e.g. a list of all followers of Carol Vorderman or Alastair Campbell or Reece Dinsdale, for example). So if someone bulk blocks based on that, then you get included in that.
It's on https://Clearsky.app , you can look up who's blocked you and what lists you're on. I can't believe well over 300 have blocked me when I'm the nicest person I know 😂
Another mere beginner.
I'm blocked by 381 who think I'm transphobic/misogynist/ racist/ drama queen/give off rancid vibes 🤔.
There's one who's labelled me as suspicious, they're playing safe and have blocked me to be on the safe side 😂
The GBeebies account is now blocked by over 6000 people. With a little bit of effort, they could end up in the top 20 list of blocked accounts! Only need about 8000 blockers to get there! Now there's an effort with making.

I’ve actually made an effort to be less rude on here than I used to be on Twitter. So quite surprised that people have taken exception.

But he doesn’t say anything offensive

Tough crowd, huh?

I blocked them as soon as I heard they were on here.
Weird behaviour - like me blocking everyone who follows Farage or Braverman.
Anyway, presumably blocking is two way, so this is useful self-sensorship?!
