Absolutely, 100%, no discussion needed. By filtering them out, the signal-to-noise ratio goes way up. By permitting them, the actual discussion becomes completely derailed. I'm not muting people who have a different opinion about mute. You'll see plenty of dissent with even a cursory glance. I'm muting people who are dicks about it. Do you see the difference?Are those really the comments that are worthy of shunning?
I believe you should be allowed to block whoever you want from commenting on your content, like this thread here, but as an outside observer reading the discussion about this topic, how am I supposed to interpret the fact that you're muting people who have a different opinion about mute?
