yeah that's the thing, I've never needed mass-block on Twitter bec the algo just kinda put me near ppl w similar interests & views and no one from outside really has any reason to harass us?
but I could see someone deciding to build up a cult-like isolated subgroup where they police interactions outside the group and use a shared blocklist for shunning as punishment
