Bluesky can’t grow if it becomes allergic to disagreement. But it also can’t thrive if big voices misunderstand the vibe. You came for conversation. Good. Stay long enough to have one. (6/6)

You don’t have to agree with people here. But if you stay, listen longer. Not every “go away” is a rejection of ideas — sometimes it’s grief, anger, and/or exhaustion. You’re not being canceled. You’re being challenged. (5/6)

That said — fear can’t be our only language. It shrinks the space for dialogue. If we want better conversations, then we have to hold both truths:
1) The danger is real.
2) The person you disagree with might not be the villain. (4/6)

When you say “agree with me or you’re a Nazi fascist,” I get the frustration. But people see this timeline as one of the few places left where they can draw hard lines and feel heard. That matters to us. (3/6)

It’s not about you. It’s about what you represent — money, influence, systems that feel rigged. Bluesky isn’t hostile for fun. It’s defensive by default. Not ideal, but it’s real. (2/6)

@adamkinzinger.bsky.social Do you think he will invoke it? What would prevent him from doing so?

I know it was most likely a rip off of Dig Dug, but Mr. Do was my favorite. Could also be the fact that a gas station 4 blocks from my house had it. Dumped a lot of quarters into this one.

No surprise, but I am glad he is saying it. I am no fan of Elon, but it is fun watching the "bears" poke each other. I hope it escalates. This is like a political soap opera.
