They shouldn’t be able to do that!

      Because they can spread lies about me that I can’t see, to people who come to engage with me.

      Not everyone is a stranger, you can have communities for real world groups.

        They can spread lies about you to those same people anyway. People who are just bad actors specifically ought to be banned from the community as a whole ideally. In reality not all bad behavior will rise to the level of banning and you will sometimes have to engage with people who are negative towards you if you want to counter their narrative.
