Do not respond to a post by FrayedBear.He constantly makes posts which are deliberately wrong and antagonistic, in an attempt to make one angry and respond to him. If you respond, he will resort to logical fallacies, misinformation,, attempts to twist what one says, and bait and switch tactics. His aim is to draw you into a heated argument and keep you on the hook by hitting hot buttons to prove that he is in control. He reminds me of my first wife and why I left her. Ignore him and you defang him.
Sad that those so far writing in this thread choose to deny the evidence of reports like the following one which proves that the USA provoked Russia into defending its people in Ukraine from the genocide perpetrated by the US sponsored government.

@Garban yawn. Try answering that question regarding USA & China first.
I blocked him within his first few months on Ag.com. Then for a new year's experiment I unblocked everyone. It took about 2 weeks before I blocked him again. I decided that experiment was not worth repeating. Now when someone gets blocked they remain blocked forever. Especially him.
Omg
Wait, how do you see who you’ve blocked? When I got to Settings > Blocks, it just offers me the option to enter a user name. I don’t see who I’ve already blocked.
@Apunzelle Click settings in the drop down menu beside your name. (I am on Google Chrome, I don't like using my phone for much besides a phone, calculator, camera, maps, and emergency search engine.) Under settings it will show you how many you have blocked, and when you click that it will show you who you have blocked. Just now I looked and I was like "oh yeah, now I remember I blocked him! No wonder it's so peaceful, no more whining from (whichever member that was) It also shows me I have fewer blocked than I thought, I'm guessing some of those I had blocked have deleted their profiles.
@HippieChick58 I can’t seem to do it from my phone. Maybe one day I’ll access the site via an actual laptop. Thanks for the instructions.
@Frayed Bear shares a room in a nursing home.
Yes he can be dfficult BUT we may all be there one day.......
That's why I never block anyone, its easy enough to ignore things if you don't like what they post.
That is unfortunate for him, however his living situation is not a license for being an unpleasant human being. We all have burdens to bear and we all need to be civilized human beings. He made the choice to be rude or otherwise unpleasant. I have limited hours in my day to do what I want to do. He made a few of those hours less than pleasant, so I blocked him. I still have limited hours but I don't have his postings/replies making my hours less pleasant. And I'm assuming from his replies he wasn't enjoying my postings so I see it as a win/win.
