Just as Nature abhors a vacuum, I loathe echo chambers, and because everyone seems to be retreating into their echo chambers, I maintain a presence in all of them.
I came here because the only ideas that get visibility on X are the ones from accounts with a blue check, which are mostly accounts who are willing to pay Musk for it, which in turn tend to be people who agree politically with him.
So, it's an echo chamber of the owner's making. BlueSky may be an echo chamber currently, but that's only because there was recently a mass exodus of liberal voices from X.
Musk fired hundreds of staff when he took over X. He plans to do the same for Trump.
Billionaires always find ways to get more money.
Where will all those people find jobs?
Yes, and it works much better with a fraction of the staff. What Musk and Vivek are doing to the US government is trying to duplicate what Milei did in Argentina: JP Morgan has raised Argentina’s GDP growth forecast for next year to 8.5%, one of the highest in the world.
You should stop reading conspiracy theorists. And do you really think the US aren't involved in every election around the world?! Let alone Ukraine's in 2014...
When I was still using the platform, I always called it Twitter. However, I do not wish to remember Twitter as it was when I finally left the platform. Twitter was great, but it transformed into X, a propaganda tool for Trump/Musk. I will keep fond memories of Twitter, not of X.

Here you have that option. On X and FB it’s forced upon you for engagement.
BlueSky isn’t a “liberal” platform. It’s just a new form of social media that gives users more control over the content and conversations they see.

Your choice of up to the minute lies and propaganda
