"He has so many hard-core supporters and Crypto Bros that will just lap this up. They'll throw a few quid at it, just to say they have a few of them. They won't be worried about it's value and he'll rake it in. Such an easy grift for him. This is his last chance at presidency, expect to see lots more money making schemes over the next few years" I'll put money on it that he'll try and change the term limits from 2 to 3 over the next few years | |||

"For me when you are having a debate or discussion about a topic like the past or present president of America and you resort to name calling it showed what type of person you are, doesn't matter if its one person or a group of people. I'm kinda shocked to see someone would block another person just because of their political view, but then again, it's all down to preference. " Blocking is just another filtering tool. If there's people that I'm not compatible with because of their views I have absolutely no problem blocking them because I know we are not compatible and I don't want to interact with them. It just saves time. I also block assholes, pricks, racist's, right wing nut jobs, trolls and dickheads etc Along with the occasional virtue signalling white knight. It's a crap shoot really. | |||

So if you disagree with an opinion and block the person it's because they are incompatible? "I've only ever blocked one fella and that was for messaging me every ten minutes asking to suck my cock. Jaysus! Lots of people look at profiles and block simply because they're not interested and it will mean that those people they're not interested in no longer show up on searches. It's common practice and makes sense. Surely you know this? | |||

It's a culture that thrived but is now dying. "I was in a bar in Spain not too long ago with some mates at the pool table. Another Irish fella started interacting with us. I initially thought he was a bit of craic until some filthy racism came out of his mouth. So, I told him to cop on, grabbed my pint and moved down a bit. My mates asked why I'd stopped interacting with him all of a sudden. I just said I wasn't standing listening to that kind of shite. So... just out of curiosity, in your eyes is that cancel culture? Or... just me making a choice as an individual I didn't advise anyone else around to not interact with him He still continued to hang around the area and knock the craic out of plenty of other lads | |||

"Oh no totally it's a different level! (it was wild honestly...) And not trying to suggest it's any way similar than saying Trump's a cunt 😃 My point is would my reaction to it be viewed as cancel culture?" No that reaction wouldn't be like cancel culture at all. But beating some sense into him probably be the better option though. I respect everyone's opinion on every subject regardless of disagreeing with it unless it's racism. But ill take their opinion and try understand where they are coming from, instead of refusing to see their point in a debate. | |||

"Ah come on, cancel culture?! Someone on the forum saying "I think Trump is great" and someone else thinking "ah, I think Trump's a bit of a cunt actually" and blocking them because they don't want to interact with them isn't cancel culture
Now, if they go "nah, I'm not having that opinion shared on these forums" and then start contacting and influencing others forum posters to ignore/block/demonise the aforementioned person we might have a case on our hands...
It's the same attitude/behaviour, I don't like your opinion so I'll delete you.
It's a culture that thrived but is now dying.
I was in a bar in Spain not too long ago with some mates at the pool table. Another Irish fella started interacting with us. I initially thought he was a bit of craic until some filthy racism came out of his mouth. So, I told him to cop on, grabbed my pint and moved down a bit.
My mates asked why I'd stopped interacting with him all of a sudden. I just said I wasn't standing listening to that kind of shite.
So... just out of curiosity, in your eyes is that cancel culture?
Or... just me making a choice as an individual
I didn't advise anyone else around to not interact with him
He still continued to hang around the area and knock the craic out of plenty of other lads
Eh debating something and saying racist stuff are on different levels and definitely not the same thing for play for just walking away because I'm sure many others would have hit that person a slap to get them to cop on. "Here is the root of it all "saying racist stuff"! Show us an example of any "racist stuff" in this thread? | |||

"That was a personal choice and it wasn't a debate. You certainly didn't 'cancel ' him. A wider issue is however what people define as 'racism'. In Ireland at the moment if anyone criticises people who abuse our International protection system they will immediately be decried as racist. Its not possible to have a fact based discussion on the topic. | |||

"If someone expresses views that are wildly different to my belief system I block them. I block people advertising drugs or bragging about taking them. I block people who consistently message me and don’t understand that no reply is a reply. I block people that I feel display a penchant for drama. I block people who post statuses and threads that make me want to vomit. I block them because I don’t want them having access to my profile, my pictures, the ability to mail me - my corner of fab. That isn’t cancel culture. I’m not telling anyone else to block them or bar them from events. I will never understand why people get so pissy about someone they’ve never met, and will never meet, blocking them. If me blocking you annoys you, you need to find a hobby. " Couldn't have said it better  | |||

"1) This isn't cancelling or cancel culture 2) Cancel culture is bad. Give them enough rope to hang themselves." Blocking someone who's opinion you don't agree with is very much a symptom of 'cancel culture' in Ireland. Go do it by all means but it smacks of arrogance, intolerance and narrow mindedness. As to "give them enough rope" comment, it's a similar arrogance, "I'm right and because you disagreed let's watch you pay. Thankfully that entire intolerant culture is in its dying days. | |||

" There are lots of people on these forums I don't agree with. Some I disagree with now and again but on other topics I may not have an opinion or find myself in agreement. Others are just absolute cunts who throw grenades into the forum with ridiculous comments deliberately designed to wind people up. Then there are those who don't have an original opinion of there own and just agree with whoever has the best tits, even if that means agreeing with the opposite opinion 5 minutes later if a nicer pair of tits arrive. If I decide to block someone on here for any of the above reasons I don't announce it in public and demand that everyone else blocks them too. I block them so they can't see my profile and make snide comments on the forums based on that. That's not cancel culture, that's just changing the channel because I don't like the programme that's on. | |||

You can try to derail the discussion by bringing up racism and the 'international protection system' but seriously like, wtf. | |||

"Id defend anyone's right to say something I disagree with in public (as long as it's not illegal/defamatory etc). That's because I'm anti cancel culture. Unpleasant/bigoted/stupid people out themselves fast enough. That applies in every public forum including this thread as well as someone making a speech or sending a political statement. That's a different thing to choosing individually to not directly communicate or choosing to filter (block) any other individual. That's not cancelling." Cool we finally agree
The block part of the conversation was always only about blocking because of a difference of opinion.

"Godwin's Law wins again 😂 Had to Google. I am committing this to my brain for future threads. Also hoping to involve said law as much as possible going forward "I used the term on here years ago and felt very smug that nobody else had ever heard of it. It came up in a random conversation in a pub I was doing work in and an old guy propping up the bar used it to describe his neighbour who loved starting rows over nothing and then resorted to calling anyone who disagreed Hitler. He explained it to everyone in the bar at the time and I tucked it away for future reference. | |||

"I don’t understand why you’d block someone whose opinion you don’t agree within a thread, or in all threads. No because I disagree with cancel culture but because it’s pointless. I’ll still have to see their posts. They can still reply to me. I can still reply to them. All it stops is them seeing my profile and potentially DMing me. But based on forum opinions that would be unlikely. Why block? " People have been known to screenshot pics, contact peoples veris etc etc all because they’ve disagreed with them.
