Blocking means hiding them from your online experience. Your posts are still public, there is no point trying to censor them... Somebody's could just create a new account to see them anyways.

But if they COULDN'T see your posts from one account it would actually give them more information: that you have initiated a block. That has social implications and could even make a stalking situation worse.
