It comes as a regrettable development, as I've held the fellow's perspective and opinions pertaining to public affairs in high esteem for many years, even as our views have come to diverge quite significantly in that timeframe.

But in the end I suppose, those disagreements - however polite - have become too significant and too fundamental, as have our perspectives on blocking along those lines.

One time someone blocked me and then went on a rant on a different forum about how little they think about me. Didn't make sense to me.

I cannot say I've observed the same, but that is certainly odd behavior the part of the user in question. I'm not sure what to make of it.

Who

To be honest, I'm not sure how to answer.

A long-time CE poster that has managed to stand out as thoughtful and well-read, particularly but not exclusively in the realm of politics.

Yes, of the Social Democratic or Democratic Socialist variety I believe.

Perhaps.

I try to remain open to views at odds with my own though, both as a litmus test mechanism, as well as to identify potential nuances I might otherwise be blind to, and so thoughtful posters of any kind help tremendously with this, particularly when I'm not actively reading material from a different perspective.

I have noticed that of the blocks I've observed, they've come virtually exclusively from those on the left - though the resident tankies are a surprising exception to this, even if they're preachy and dogmatic as hell or abuse fallacies.

On the other hand, my favorite person to discuss public affairs with - left, right, or center - is actually an anarcho-communist I work with.
