If I block all with that frowny face who are not willing to utter their political/ideological world view, either without scrupels directly or embellished as economics, eventually defended with "It has implications for Berkshire too" (What has none?) on the proper boards instead of poisoning this one, then half of the posting "population" here would be gone.

Is there a way to instead block and make invisible threads instead of individuals? It's difficult for me to otherwise avoid those poisoned threads as I simply read a post, then click on "Next", then on "Next" again etc., therefore having to wade chronologically (I hate the threaded view) through all that political/ideological sticky shit to read the few posts worth to be here (for the post and for me).
