Yep. One’s political stance doesn’t necessarily determine whether or not one has the propensity to troll and start arguments when a real difference doesn’t exist.
I got ganged up on & shamed by like minded political folks who trolled me for my original handle. No other reason.
We can be shitty too
As long as human beings are involved, there's no such thing as paradise. But it's a helluva lot better than Twitter. We just have to be vigilant against MAGAts who slip in to cause trouble and block with extreme prejudice.
Shhhh.... You are probably right. You are almost certainly right. But there are a lot of people in trauma right now. And it is pretty nice now. So let's just let them heal for a bit. It's going to be a long ugly decade.
I understand the jaded pessimism. 😔 but…frankly a lot of times we do a disservice to ourselves by not enjoying a GOOD thing when it’s in front of our face…even if it’s fleeting. LIVE in a joyous moment if you can.. ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Brock Pierce (that asshole that's gentrifying PR) has like a $15mil investment in BlueSky. I agree...proceed w/caution, bc there's no getting away from it at the moment.
I don’t think it’s meant to be paradise and of course we always have to be careful on any site but so far it’s a lot more refreshing than X in my opinion. I guess we’ll see.
But there are people on here I trust to get my news from …. and it’s not Musk or Zuck pulling the algorithm strings and that’s good enuf for me now while I figure out what to do with myself going forward.

Bothsidesism.
I don’t agree.
This is what Congress was beginning to do before Elon Musk pretended he "saved free speech".
His fear of white supremacy losing influence motivated him.
Folks need to run their own Mastodon instances or other decentralized social media.
The challenge is that it requires skills and time that most people don't have today. Not shaming, bit just stating facts.
