To sum up for people who might be missing out on the discourse because of the Ignore function. :


Ezra Levant calls out Guilbeault for violating Charter rights because Guilbeault blocked Levant on Twitter.

That prompts an article questioning what the implications Levant's challenge of Guilbeault have for other block-happy politicians like Danielle Smith.

To which the resident snowflake remarks: 'but WHATABOUT Guilbeault?! He blocks people too!'

Credit where it's due, Yoho is likely this site's GOAT troll. It should be exceptionally easy to just ignore, even without the function, and yet the responses continue. He knows how to fish with dynamite.

What an accomplishment. I think more people say this than Yoho even posts.

There is a distinct benefit to using Tapatalk right now, and that the extra steps to view tweets isn't generally worth seeing the trouble of seeing what they posted.

To be fair, JM doesn’t have a fan club because most of us recognize his lovable brand of crazy is indefensible even if we align politically with him, so we just let him do his thing.

The fact that people spend this much time talking about Yoho, let alone defending him like some of you do, is weird. Nobody talks about JM or defends him, he just exists.

To be honest, public figures should be blocking a lot people. There are some deplorable things people say on social media. I can only imagine the vitriol and hatred that politicians get. The idea that they should have to endure that is just ridiculous.

Meh, it’s called being an adult. I probably disagree with a bunch of Yohos political views, but I could sit and have a beer with him/her and move along with my life.

Please do! Let us know how he is in real life. I'll even buy both you your first rounds.

I can tell you already; he/she is fine. We’d talk about politics and things like that, agree to disagree and that would be it. I have friends who are the polar opposite of me politically, and it’s a non-issue. I wish “real” politics was like that.

Depends if yoho is the type of person that just plays a character online and is actually reasonable in real life, or if what you see is what you get.

I picture him completely ignoring the conversation then interrupting periodically to show everyone at the table a random tweet that has nothing to do with the topic at hand

I’ve met tons of people off this site and we’re all pretty normal people, overall. Actually, maybe the greatest thing about CP is that everyone is so great IRL and it’s such a fantastic community.

I have too, and I mostly agree, but my point was he's either trolling hard here and is completely fine in person, or he's just as annoying in person.

Neither are a good look
