View submission: Announcing Blocking Updates

I suppose you could try to turn the tables on them by blocking the propaganda account first

Sounds like that would only work a single time. These are users that post tons of content daily.

The announcement does say that you can still see comments made by accounts that you blocked, and it seems to imply that you can see their posts too:

When you see content from a blocked user it will now be out of sight (i.e. collapsed), but still accessible. This allows you to keep the context of the conversation and report posts/comments if needed.

It doesn't say whether you can reply to the blocked account, though, just that you can report it
