All good ! Except he isn’t posting here. I’m not saying to stop posting there. He should post here first and engage with users. Don’t just post on twitter

Agree, with this take. Everyone is asking what are the democrats doing?! Well most of us are here on Bluesky, we also like to know what our leaders are doing to resist. Whatever he posts on twitter, should also be posted here. Period.
@mcuban.bsky.social would be interesting to see data on impact (platform migration) of seeing "critical information sharing" via screenshots of an alternate platform?

I understood your point, Mr. Cuban. I just don't think it was a strong enough point worth making. He engages with non-MAGA plenty. He's on Bluesky (a lot of other Reps aren't), he's on YouTube, & everywhere else. He is the only one out there physically crossing the country to reach people.
IMO, your subsequent post was unnecessarily abrasive. I think that this kind of energy should be saved for the vast majority of elected reps who aren't meeting the moment, upholding their oaths, being lazy, & not doing their jobs.
That being said, because you're well-known, his team may listen.
Agree with you, save that negative energy and responses for the congressman sitting on their asses doing nothing! Or burying their heads in the sand in denial of the irreparable harm trump is doing. Nothing but support for Bernie and the good work he is doing!
Unnecessarily abusive is what musk is doing..you want to win this battle you need offense..Bernie is one that can deliver..but he needs critical thinkers advising him..
So, actually mentioning him (Bernie) on a platform that he does not use is your type of critical thinking from an actual person with ridiculous amounts of resources and media exposure?
That's kind of condescending. I looked into the Mark Cuban fella, turns out he is wealthy as heck
I don't know any other supercalifracelistic billionaires here, so it is good to listen to his ideas. In my opinion.
I think Mark forgets the real world doesn't actually happen on the internet. Most Trump voters have never been on Twitter, if you want to reach people in the real world you need to spend your time in the real world. Why would he waste time engaging with people online over more effective live speech?
I actually agree with you. He can use the propaganda tool (twitter) but still needs to post on a non nazi site. I won’t go to twitter or click links to it since the election. Wish he would interact with his base where they are and where they are safe to be. Which isn’t twitter.
He posts on multiple other platforms. He’s also touring the country right now advocating for dems.
You can’t have conversations with them online, they hired bots. There are over 10k on BlueSky alone. They track them. That’s why he’s having in-person conversations.
I invited him over- let’s see if he comes! Hopefully he’ll do better than Stephen King who said he’d follow me :) but did not. (Just Kidding of course did not expect that).
He doesn't NEED to post here - we're already in his corner. We're arguably doing some of his job here already. I'd much rather he spend his time getting people to react, talking to those he can to get them to call out the fraud going on in DC. Priorities!
"You obviously don't care to engage" is ungenerous. Aren't we being positive over here? How else could it be worded? "Come over, we are building community, and we need your active presence."
I take great and meaningful posts from here and post them elsewhere. And lately, I do that a lot! I’m sure I’d be forwarding Bernie’s content, if I could see it.
I don’t see the point in demanding he preach to the converted! What he’s doing is mobilising GOP voters to put pressure on their elected leaders, actions speak louder than words! Help him instead of criticising FFS!
But it's NOT him posting here (or anywhere) and engaging with users... it's his social media team. Most politicians do not run their own social channels. I know bc I am a social media manager with a politician for a client. Let's focus our vitriol towards other Dems who aren't doing a damn thing.
Are you still on Twitter? Everyone should dump it. Move to places that regulate false information, which Twitter and FB do not. I've dumped all META and X!

Curious if the trend inversed due to saturation
Very few people stand up for us the way Bernie has and always will.
That being said, because you're well-known, his team may listen.

It's nauseating!

I’d love To see him here- I will invite him!
Government chartered & backed banks can fund the markets in accordance with the public good.
Tax the snot out of oligarchs so that can’t use our national currency to buy our government
Taxes help regulate inflation and inequality by removing excess government spending from the private sector
Government so called “debt” = Private net savings (minus foreign trade)
But he also has the balls to go places he isn't wanted.
I wish more people claiming to represent their constituents had even a SINGLE ball to stand up for US the way Bernie has for decades.
It seems he would have people doing this for him. Maybe he directly isn't aware that there is a skew with what's being shared.
🤔
Sad.
