“Bluesky is too much of an echo chamber”

That's why all this "Woke leftist echo chamber" bs keeps going around, a decentralized front against Nazis
I will say though that at leas I'm arguing with people that generally argue in good faith.
Isn't arguing kind of the basis for society? The Socratic method and all.
Too many people I know who are republican voters went from thoughtful people willing to talk about different views, careened into today's Republican bullshit.
I'm no different. I'm a senior who's worried about the safety net for us and the country that my grandchildren will have left.
That’s exactly what they think you’re trying to do to them too!
No one has tried to take a vote from them.
No one has told their woman they must carry a child.
No one took any program away from them.
No one told them they had to read a book they didn't agree with.
Their beliefs are built on the hatred of one man.
Sound familiar?
Complete the metaphor by having them already killed, severely crippled or dismembered and parts of their body worn as a costume by another.
Like have Ted Cruz only use Bluesky for his sports posts
I’ve never said this before, but we need a higher grade of Right Wing trolls.
These Leftists don't tolerate anyone who disagrees.
All I do is question, and I’ve been called a Nazi / Fascist / Right wing plant, among other things.
I like debate so sometimes I ask challenging questions. They’re not “right wing”.
This place is a mirror image of X.
I do try to be polite in my disagreement, but I like challenging narratives, because I cannot bring myself to believe that the people of this country are cleanly divided between lovely people and Nazi fascists.
I would be willing but I will only block that BS.
What are you doing to "discuss" with the GOP?
I haven’t used Facebook for many years, but my daughter’s Girl Guides group has a page there so I’m obliged to check it. But it’s easy enough to simply ignore everything else.
Going to need gif support, though.
But also yeah, this place is mad segregated, where is DNBSky? *Shrug* BikeSky? I dunno, there's next to no organic crossover so we have to actively look
(If they do ask for money it's usually because they can't afford their meds this month and their cat has a $2000 vet bill).
Maybe you’re not hanging out in the correct neighborhoods?
Cute lobsters
I’m not leftist or rightist - I just want fascist criminals with ties to nazi russia to rot in jail where they belong.
Twitter: MAGA Cult
TikTok: RW Propaganda
Facebook: MAGA pretending to be Constitutional Patriots.
TruthSocial: Trumpsters, MAGA Cult, Far Right, Proud Boys, J6’s, KKK, White Supremacy, Q, Russian and Nazi Sympathizers.
Liberals are not leftists.
It’s easy to rally behind 1 name when you’ve checked your brain at the door and showed up for the feels.
It’s less easy to have the awareness to question.
Bye.

C3: "The tune's problematic. It's commonly associated with a Christmas carol..."

In truth, what we have here is not some dreary, self-reinforcing cavern of identical opinions bouncing back and forth ad infinitum, but rather a far more agreeable proposition: a convivium of kindred spirits, a veritable salon of the similarly persuaded.
All we need to do is work together to fight the fascists.
Atleast that’s how it should be.
But it seems more like some liberals think sliding to the right is the right choice.
Meanwhile, I’m over here like this:
DONE THAT !
They only attack you with lies. No discussions are remotely rational.
Conservative on Conservative discourse: No, those are not the right groups to put into camps
Also leftists: [shrieking at someone over whether Bakunin would have used Venmo]
I've seen tons of debate with varying viewpoints here; it just happens much more respectfully.
Rather be in that circle.
All I see are Liberals everywhere... Ugh!

Here's tolerable.
There's unbearable.
See you at the bar.
I agree.
There’s very little political debate when we all agree with each other. Nobody here is changing my opinion.
But we know there’s millions of people who disagree with us.
Not going to twitter but how to change others opinions?
I wish I knew
thought admittedly i have done the same in the past but i have always apologized after my overreaction.
We’re exclusively communicating via stares, mm hmms, you see what I’m sayings, and teeth sucking.
Damn Leftist! They ruined the Left.
The US is different. Enjoy your vote.

According to clearsky, I have 75 people blocking me!!
As a middle aged, middle class, hetero white bloke - I'm used to pissing everyone off!
We just don't put up with the maga loonies.
They will be ridiculed, for being ridiculous.
Some have joined and then left after realizing they can't easily stir up hate.
Most are just bots.
We can take in each other‘s opinions, but that doesn’t mean that we’re 100% sure that we can change each other‘s minds.
Arguing about titles put you in a box. Stop labeling everyone.
I like bluesky the way it is. We come together for solutions and activism....
At least that's my experience.
Pettiness doesn't belong in a cooperative society.
Extremes of any side are not my thing.

If you are fine with those things, well, you aren’t going to have fun here
My mom and I are much more online than my dad.
reading tweets, listening to podcasts and getting up to date information on on the goings on in Washington balances out some of the noise.
I could burn a Quran on the Hajj and get fewer death wishes.
He attacked me, and basically confirmed his warlord theory. That powerful influencers will bombard you and attack you if their warlord desires.
Yes, it's an echo chamber.
—Me, to my gynecologist
You have people throwing dollar bills at a lobster.
And the point is....?
Trying to get the Left factions to all agree on any particular issue is like herding cats. Each has its own direction and each wants preference
