Why are people quick to ban or block because a comment makes them angry, rather than engage, debate or respectfully strongly disagree and leave the discussion at that?

Why can't people handle talking with someone who has a completely different view who can explain why they are against something that was said?

We were discussing "Why are people quick to ban or block" those terms only relate to online spaces. Please don't try to change the topic to real life interactions, I would hate to think you are being disingenuous in this debate, I know how much that offends you.

It speaks to the broader context of personal character and how stunted someone is because they react emotionally, not able to control their words, have self control, and trying to win, not having dialogue.

For example, resorting to mocking, sarcasm, or insults proves an intellectual defect.

And you are an example of people it's better to block them engage with.
