One of the funniest things is seeing one of these MAGA trolls, going to their profile to block them on here, and seeing that they have zero followers. No one is paying attention to these people.

This is the correct way to deal with them. Without left wing reactions, they have no oxygen to burn. Deprive the fire of fuel; it does not provide warmth.
I'm paying attention. I don't understand why people want to spend their time on social media just preaching to the choir. They are the very lost souls we NEED to reach.
Yet despite the lack of any significant acknowledgement they still think they are relevant. It can only be some kind of transmitted brain damage. I mean we have Liz Truss in the UK, a woman so detached from reality it's hard to know if she's human. Yet in the USA she can get a MAGA audience.
You can eventually spot them easily- often the profile pictures look similar/ strange
I give some the benefit of the doubt then block - always report them first
I’m very very confuse about about Elon Musk’s involvement in American government policies and decision making. He is neither a representative nor a senator. He is NOT an elected official. I’m very confuse! 🤷♀️
Nobody voted for Leon Moscow and he has a social media addiction , possibly others. But nobody with pull seems to care, as long as the money flows. Same as it ever was, imo.
Yeah I have enjoyed seeing that as well. Like every single one of them too haha. Now they are the ones speaking into the void. Whereas here, I post something and people actually like, follow, or converse with me. Such a nice change 😊
Yes, but then you can and should block the people they follow. It gives up the game. Sad thing is these dopes are putting in their profiles "Turning Bluesky Red." Sure thing. How would that work?
You have an interesting last name, David I follow your show. I think you have a younger audience. I'm not sure. You have an interesting last name like I said Pac-Man that's what I call myself sometimes too. I like PACKIE work brother.
Blocking MAGA trolls with zero followers feels like swatting a fly already stuck in a web. Nobody’s listening, but it’s still satisfying to clear the noise!
And the funniest part is they aren't even being artificially suppressed by the algorithm, people themselves are just choosing not to engage with their bullshit.
I saw one complaining that only bots followed them and real people didn’t use the site. Then he had several comments making fun of him that proved he was just very unlikeable and real people see him and ignore him. Just amazing
These are probably just troll farms. Meaning 1 guy that runs 50-100 profiles just to create a propaganda narrative, or to talk childish smack, and go on his other profiles to like his own comments.
first day on bluesky and I’m digging it, however it is concerning the amount of racist fringe leftist I’m seeing, I had this interaction 1 hour into being on bluesky. If we want to be a majority left leaning platform we have to shun shit like this. The racist leftist are just as toxic to us as maga
I’m not trying to hand wring or say these people represent the party, but the perception is that they do and this insane rhetoric should be shunned by everyone. We can’t be the party of hating white people these people pretend to represent us and make the party look extreme and hateful
On the bird app I enjoyed engaging, doing my best to influence outcome.
No need anymore. Especially here. Here, trolls only purpose is for playing whack-a-mole
I noticed this too, it's a bit sad. They came all this way and nobody likes them, nobody follows them because they really don't have anything to say that hasn't already been said by one of them thousands of time before.
I also think it's pathetic that they had to follow people over here because they just enjoy being an upsetting presence wherever they are. I can't imagine being that miserable of a human being.
This is how they behave irl too. It’s why people cut them out of their lives after the election. These are deeply miserable people that want other people to be as miserable as they are.
That's on purpose. Trolling the libs is how they rage against wokeness. They think they'll MAGA partially by saying the most awful shit cause woke PC culture told them they can't say bad things or they'll get "cancelled". Intentionally saying awful things is their rebellion. They want liberal tears.
Yeah I read one of the bios. "Sky is not so blue anymore now that I have arrived." The combination of hubris and being pathetic was awesome. Also, no followers...
I did for a bit but it is just a waste of time. Gets tiring listening to them reply, I own you. I’m in your head. You have to reply because you are my bitch. I have seen this nonsense too many times.
Go to Settings, Moderation, Moderation Lists & create a Moderation List. Add each troll to it before you block them. Others can go to Lists on your profile (you can post a link to it as well) & subscribe to it - blocking all on the list and any you add to it in the future.
They have literally nothing interesting to say. I think it's a bit of a shock to them that they're not rewarded here for spamming out school-kid insults that work so well in the sewer of Twitter now. They're not even creative - it's just the same tired old memes, insults, transphobia. A lot are bots
Is sad. Troll lives matter... humm... perhaps should reflect on that.
In good old days would talk to trolls for hours trying to help.
"Is sad life you live working under capitalist troll master. Toiling away, lonely hour after hour at trollery. They limit your potty breaks? French fries cold? etc."
Before I block them, I explained to them that we would not invite a child rapist to breakfast, and we would not invite and enabler of a child rapist to breakfast, so why would we chat with them online
Yep. No engagement is the key. Because it really doesn’t matter to us. They will eventually fight with each other over there. That should satisfy them.
Yeah. It really won’t be long before the tight turns on itself. As soon as they have a modicum of power the knives will come out. I look forward to seeing that reflected among the minions who we can peacefully ignore online and forcefully resist in real life.
All they have is hate and division. More and more people are understanding the best way to deal with them is to ignore them. They have no reasonable arguments to debate so no point in attempting it.
The bots came down when one of the Starlinks burst into flames. Right after the election. (along with the voter control) It was quite evident on TicToc. Not sure about YouTube

I follow you on YouTube. Love your reporting.

FYI, just learned about these block lists. You can literally block a long list of trolls in just one click.
You only give trolls a platform by engaging with them. Not giving them they attention they need and crave hurts them far worse than a good zinger!
I care for the community we are building here.

Important to keep that up.
Bro you have 2 followers, one of them is a porn bot and the other some crypto scam shit.
The only red wave that's coming is the blood in your cheeks when you obtain an ounce of self awareness and feel shame.
But maybe that's still too charitable

What actually draws all of them to you specifically anyway?
It's quite literally the angry old guy yelling at the clouds and believing he's having an effect. Pitiful.
It makes you realize how much Elon is forcing these people on everyone else for nothing more than his own entertainment.
