    That’s how Reddit used to work until they made the idiotic change (IMO) to go the other way. A blockee loses the ability to even participate in any thread/post started by the blocker.

    For example, after the change if I blocked you now, you wouldn’t be able to respond to me or anyone else further down a thread I started.

    This is a boon to bullshitters, disinformation campaigns, etc since those people could just post their bullshit and then block anyone who attempted to call them out.
