Sorry for the Reddit link but lemmy.world's not letting upload images and I'm on mobile so don't want to transcribe this, but just imagine the person you're arguing with is like this:

Transcription of the image in @BitSound's comment:
A Reddit comment by user "YARGLE_IS_MY_DAD":
"I remember I got into an argument on reddit awhile ago with a person over Italian food. It got to the point they were following me into other subs to harass me.
I clicked on their profile to block them and their most recent post was them drinking their own piss on r/piss. At that moment I realized I had spent so much pointless time arguing about the taste of food with someone who drinks their own piss as a hobby. This site is a shit hole."
Thank you ๐
This is actually also prevalent here on lemmy, gosh, the gate keepers here are insane, it borders mental illness.
Sometimes I just block without engaging.
