Consider that, if you've been blocked by someone for "just asking a simple question", it wasn't just a simple question.
Your question doesn't exist in a vacuum.
The "just a simple question" was so unpleasant that the person would rather block you than communicate.
Maybe think about that for a bit, and have some self-reflection on your own behaviour.
(ESPECIALLY if your response to being blocked is then to carry on in the comments of their post about how they blocked you)

"The Woman Who Predicted Tech Fascism — Paulina Borsook Was Right"
"These techno-libertarians make a philosophy out of a personality defect."
Paulini Borsook, Cyberselfish

Borsook wrote Cyberselfish in 2001. And their personality defect? Narcissistic psychopathy.

And, of course, cartoonists are adding to the commentary, including Nick Anderson, whose "Men, let me tell you about the warrior ethos" cartoon is featured by by Gene Weingarten.

Was hat diese Frau doch fuer eine Energie?
Dem von rechten Schwurblern, Medien, Kirche und Union losgetretenen Shitstorm so stabil entgegenzutreten.... das kostet Kraft. Ich hoffe sie haelt das durch!
