The ‘Blocking is not enough’ joke format wishes some delightfully petty inconveniences on internet trolls – 23 funny favourites

Since Elon Musk appeared to decide that the right to call people slurs was more important than personal safety, the Twitter/X block function has been fairly useless.

Although people can’t interact with an account that has blocked them, they can see – and screenshot – that person’s posts, allowing them to trigger a pile-on, so – in a very real sense – blocking in not enough. That, however, isn’t quite the point of this joke format.

Check out these examples to appreciate just what it’s all about.
