Right - but what you gonna do about that? I mean, if Asshat posts something, my reasons for commenting it are either:

A) to wind up asshat

B) to correct someone responding to asshat whose opinion I actually care about.

If (A), stop that. be a part of the solution, not a part of the problem.

If (B), PM them to shout you out and lo and behold, you can talk again. Thereby giving Asshat the option to mute your friend.
