It’s nothing to do with attraction, there are a whole plethora of tools on Instagram you can use after going out of your way and opening someone’s DMs to get them to hush up like the mute button for example. The DMs weren’t harassment and I’ve seen nothing bad in the other girls I’ve talked to either. Stop defending hot bigots just bc they’re hot, look at yourself.
P.S., if you’re building a brand on Instagram blocking a whole bunch of people who are giving positive engagement makes no sense unless you simply don’t want them anywhere near your page. It isn’t a dating app to be like oh I don’t want this person bc they’re not hot or cis, it’s a business and marketing tool.
