@Huntn00 @Mastodon - This is typically the way.
But when you get someone that has been on the platform for only a few weeks, has NO POSTS and only replies that repeat the same bigotry and Christian Dominionism creating a caste system where he/they are at the top and everyone is below them, it goes beyond just blocking. It is why I stepped in an engaged him. And I'm proud of my follower base to not jump into straight attacks. He was given lots of outs and people asked all sorts of clarifications.

Now would be a good time to join Moms Demand Action For Gun Sense in America. https://momsdemandaction.org
It’s not just for moms. It’s for anyone who is tired of gun violence and gun deaths. We are helping support gun sense candidates across the country and helping pass sensible gun legislation.
The best way I know how to honor any community is by demanding meaningful legislative action on gun safety. Join me in telling your U.S. Representative and Senator to save lives by supporting a federal assault weapons ban.

@SazeracLA Just another one of their anarchist losers that the #GOP sees fit to help take down our Democratic Republic.

@steven is all the stuff I’m used to running on Windows available on Linux? In essence does Linus have the same broad acceptance? Of note, my sole interest in Windows is gaming and Unreal Engine. Acknowledged that Windows has baggage. For other serious computer stuff I’m all MacOS. 🙂
#Linux compatibility and performance on the desktop are so much better today than they have ever been.
Unless you have a compelling reason to run #Windows, you are missing out on a lot of performance, easy maintenance and actual freedom (from being nagged and advertised to death, among other things).
Especially in a world where so much happens in the browser, why subject yourself to Windows?
@MJmusicinears It seems simple, Israel is subjected to an atrocity perpetrated by Hamas. This does not give Israel the right to strike out, destroying Gaza with a free hand punishing and discounting the lives of innocent Palestinians because enraged by this act “we are getting even regardless of the price to them”. And to get rid of Hamas we’ll kill as many Palestinians in our calculations as needed. 🔥🤔 It seems to me in the big picture to be a self defeating strategy.

The president’s remarks, his first on the topic since the Oct. 7 terror attack on Israel, came alongside his renewed call for a two-state solution.
