I've been thinking a lot about social norms for online discourse....
I've also started writing up some thoughts. I'm trying multiple shorter blog posts that will (hopefully....) combine into something substantive.
Here's the first, a gentle warm up....
All thoughts welcome!

I’d like to conduct some polls on social norms here…..First up: blocking
Do you think it’s ok to block people

@UlrikeHahn I treat feeds like my living room. I decide who gets in.
Elected representatives should pay attention to the opinions of constituents. I also want my representatives to be clever enough to recognize when they're being gamed, targetted by organized campaigns, and that accepting onling credentials as proof of identity is naive.

"I treat feeds like my living room. I decide who gets in."
I'm not sure that answers the question ;-)

@UlrikeHahn I block or mute if I don't want to see posts from someone. Everyone should do the same.
It's naive to assume the authenticity of the ID's attached to social media posts. Requiring politicians to avoid blocking likely encourages them to ignore the entire platform, especially if they are abused by organized swarming.
If politicians participate in social media, I'd encourage them to assess the content of each post on its merits, without reference to the name attached to it.
