Boundaries
“A boundary is something you have control over with a clear action you are capable of taking as a consequence.
“Don’t talk to me if you’re a Nazi” — This is not a boundary, this is a demand and it’s not something you have any control over. Nazis can and will initiate contact with whoever they want.
“If you talk to me and I find out you’re a Nazi, I will block you” — A boundary. A clear cause and effect that YOU have control over.”
DNI (Do Not Interact lists) are common online. But there are plenty of people I would prefer not to interact with, but I have no control over it. Whether it's subway molesters or guys drizzling beer on you at concerts.
In real life I would physically move my body from such people. Online all I can do is mute, block, and ignore.
