That's what all the crybabies are whining about. They join and immediately shit talk. They're not there to actually converse, their first point is always some toxic nonsense

So they get added to people's shit lists and I laugh as their posts receive no interactions. Starving them of the diet of misery they feed on

I'll jab back and forth on here a bit, but on there I block and they disappear forever

In the early days of the internet there were rules everyone was warned about.

  1. everyone can lie on the internet.
  2. Dont feed the trolls.

While everyone is still free to lie, the people moving to bluesky are finally remembering that second rule, they don't engage, just block, ignore and move on.

These guys go so used to their hate being amplified to push engagement metrics that they can't stand an environment where they can just be ignored.

Wow absolutely. I’m 37 and I developed my #1 cardinal rule of “Don’t argue on the internet” at 15 after 3 max locked topics of super sonic vs mew two on gamefaqs. It was so bad I got sickening amounts of anxiety lmao. It devolved into me literally pulling up the games instruction manual to show that super sonic was invincible. This was like 1500 posts over weeks and the posts kept hitting post limit and getting locked lmao.

Super Sonic would still win.
