I am estranged from my oldest brother, but he's not blocked or anything, we just don't talk. it's because he's a foxbot right winger and I can't take his incessant racism. he's toxic to me basically. If I push the issue my fear is we'll go completely blank as you and your child have. I don't want that either. Still love him, just can't stand him.
