Those who take this channel seriously make for an effective discussionplatform, with valid pro's and cons, so any subject is handled with respect on both sides.
Research shows that when someone likes me responds to comments, corrects facts, and pushes back on bad behavior that it influences people to behave differently, encourages participation, and can change minds.
Actual bias on the basis of age, race, gender, sexual orientation, or religion is a problem.
I’ve taught classes & moderated many events & fora over the decades.

I'm naturally hopeful, of course, but it's also worth asking how Bluesky will financially survive if _everybody_ participates in federated groups, outside of the 'main' https://bsky.app servers?

If 95% of your replies are bad-faith, bots, or yes, Nazis, there's no point in engaging and no beneficial interactions to be had
Accusing me of sexism is inaccurate.
You’re not immune to criticism because you’re a woman.
I have had zero people here tell me I am a bad person here for not being Progressive enough.
I have had zero people here mock me or use me as an example of a target to hate.
It's just so much better here.
SILENCE. THEM. They need a platform to spread their hate.
Don't give them one.
Anyway, our politics are different but I love a reasonable opposition voice and I followed you.
Special elections are today
We can stop this administration if we start focusing on what has to be done and it begins are the ballot box
Maybe we can get Mark Cuban to start a new show, or a media company, for e-readers and a podcast. We need to do something different when addressing how to move Dem messaging https://forward.et me know how you like my thoughts.
