Why it worked

The video leverages a strong, albeit negative, call to action ('block me') combined with a list of universally condemned behaviors. This creates a sense of shared values and encourages engagement through agreement and the desire to self-identify as 'not one of those people'.

Summary

The video lists various negative behaviors and beliefs, such as homophobia, transphobia, racism, judging others, and making fun of autistic people. For each behavior, it instructs the viewer to block the creator if they engage in them. The video concludes by stating that if the viewer does any of the aforementioned actions, they should block the creator.
