Twitter is one of the most popular platforms for fandom activities, especially my fandom, and for the past years I've found a lot of mutuals I like to interact with. On the other hand, the deeper you're into the fandom, the more you encounter unreasonable tweets. You have many options: ignore, mute, or block. If you wish not to engage with any of those people in the future, you can automatically block (or mute) the original poster and the people who retweeted with the script below.
You'll need a Twitter developer account (apply here) with 'Read and Write' permission. The full script is posted on my github.
Note that by blocking them all at once you've shut down all the opportunities for any type of interaction with those people. I personally would like to read people's sentiment about a topic, but you'd know a troll tweet when you spot one. What this script does is block those people, but the judgment is yours.
