When you get blocked on Facebook, you lose the ability to see the blocker's profile, posts, and mention or message them. Your existing messages with them won't disappear, but sending new ones is not possible. Tags also become inactive. Essentially, it's as if your and the blocker's profiles no longer exist for each other on the platform. You're not notified when blocked, so detecting this requires noticing these sudden changes in interaction capabilities.
