People who are worried about who follows them shouldn't create a Bluesky account.

Thus always to tyrants

This is a test

I see so many people complain about the high proportion of political content on Bluesky. There's a reason over 14 million people have joined since the election.

Part of the issue with young people today and their opposition to diversity, equity, and inclusion is that they mistake privilege for culpability. #DEI #privelege

I think I've been engaging with someone who's been responding to their emails with AI. All of their correspondence has been conspicuously evasive, even calling me by the wrong name after I signed my name in several emails. They replied they could not answer simple questions Is this a thing?

I don't agree with everything Matk Cuban says. But this holds

Wondering if this was too Woke for @markwarner1.bsky.social This moment failed to connect on a cultural basis with a Whole lot of Americans.

“After we’ve discriminated against, deported, or disparaged all the immigrants, the gay and lesbian and transgender people, the developmentally disabled, the women, and minorities. Once we’ve ostracized our neighbors and betrayed our friends… what comes next?” - Gov. JB Pritzker

I made this artwork inspired by the Virginia state seal. So where are all the Virginians who refuse to be tread on? #thusalwaystotyrants #donttreadonme #Virginia #sicsempertyrannis

Some Republicans still have spines

Yes, everything going on with Republicans is a dumpster fire. But we've got our own backstabbing us and gaslighting us. By saying we're "too Woke" he's legitimizing their opposition to Diversity Equity and Inclusion #DEI #Woke #Wokeashell #BLM #LGBTQ+ #Transrights

Wondering if this is too Woke for @markwarner.bsky.social

Imagine having to debate that police lying to children is wrong www.courthousenews.com/bill-prohibi...

Too Woke for @markwarner.bsky.social Hanover County, Virginia school board meeting standing up for trans students rights against a school board that hired a Christian Nationalist Law firm

This is joyously beautiful

"Abolitionists fail to connect on a cultural basis with slave owners"

So a wide swath of Americans fail to connect with extraditial executions by police They fail to connect with people who don't match their concept of gender, or don't practice their religion. They fail to connect with people who don't have the privilege of dominating public spaces Who's failing?

@markwarner.bsky.social apparently thinks the mass protests that led to the murder conviction of this son of a bitch were too Woke.

@markwarner.bsky.social calls us too "Woke" while Richmond police gas peaceful protesters www.wtvr.com/news/local-n...

@Markwarner call us too "Woke" while Virginia school boards hire Christian Nationalist law firms www.wric.com/news/local-n...

Is this what people mean by Woke? This was at the Mass Protest Against Police Violence in 2021. Family members of loved ones who have been killed by police violence gathered Across the mall was a celebration of the 58th anniversary of Martin Luther King so I Have a Dream Speech.

He'd rather call us Woke than address: Militarized police and civil asset forfeiture Extraditial Execution Wolfowitz Doctrine style (I was afraid) So-called "good cops" watching bad cops do bad things Police gassing peaceful civilians School boards hiring Christian Nationalist law firms

For the Democrats who think we went too far supporting a "woke" agenda, tell me which minority specifically you want to cut loose. Tell me who's rights you think are expendable. Which demographic is acceptable collateral damage?

My response to the @bluevirginia.bsky.social claim that Mark Warner is progressive in contrast to Susan Collins

Let's be perfectly clear. Warner is saying that the parents in Hanover County, Virginia that defended the rights of their trans kids at the school board meetings is one of the reasons Democrats lost the presidential election. #transrights

So apparently the Democrats' sin is fighting for the rights of too many people simultaneously

The AIDS crisis forced the homosexual community at large out of the closet. Without this horrific episode we never would have gotten to marriage equality. People today you're speaking out en masse because they don't want to have to die in order to have their rights recognized.

Warner is a conservative politician who happens to be a member of the Democratic party.
