I had a loose friend well over a decade ago who I agreed with on a ton of issues and critiques, but they would simply identify infractions and then scream at those people, and when they tried to deputize me one time I was like "this is unstrategic" and they thought it was a Great Betrayal.

guy who only reads the news when it talks about cops, the IDF, and hate crimes: "how come the news always uses the passive voice when talking about cops, the IDF, and hate crimes???"
The exonerative voice was initially reserved for cops, but now it's applied to the IDF and even random hate criminals

a bunch of soyjak artists tore down 4chan bc the jannies told them "stop saying slurs" and everyone on here is like YAYY THE CHUD MODS GOT DOXXED
4Chan was hacked, its source code was leaked, admin emails were leaked, AND a lot of registered users used their real names and .edu email addresses. Lotta CHUDs getting exposed to sunlight today.

Yes!!! Say more of this!!! It’s the most astonishingly, openly corrupt administration in US history, literally from the first day, and it’ll only get worse. They aren’t even trying to hide it. It’s a degree of corruption that could destabilize the whole country, the whole world.
The story of this first week is corruption. Billionaires seated on the inaugural stage in front of the cabinet, crypto pump and dump, and the illegal firing of IGs. The media is acting like this is too chaotic and bewildering to interpret, but they are just afraid of sounding shrill. It’s corrupt.

i think i stumbled onto highbie discourse cuz i realized everyone is like 10k follower plus and they arent rly talking abt ppl like me.... i didnt know they had discourse at such high levels tbh
what is the point of follow back schemes. it's not 2012, nobody is impressed by your 20000 followers when you have a 1-1 follower/following ratio. what are you even trying to use this site for

Democrats should defend trans people because who are we if we don’t defend trans people, don’t sell out your neighbors
Democrats should defend Trans people because it’s the right thing to do.
2026/2028 we’re probably running against Trumpflation and whatever horrors RFK will unleash anyway. Why spend 6 months on what happened in 2024?

it's not selfish for a trans woman to protect herself and avoid drawing an even bigger spotlight onto her. *she's* the one having to deal with their bathroom rule. do you think she's not making a sacrifice? some of us don't have the privilege of only interacting with the trans-friendly.

yeah no one will ever admit but the nuclear block is pretty bad for this site’s growth
The way you fix it is by wooing non-political accounts and personalities here, but that takes charm, outreach, time, and people skills. Some people have those (not me).
Reflexive blocking is counterproductive in this regard, as you have previously pointed out.

It’s fairly headspinning that we’re sitting on top of what is far and away the best economy of my lifetime going through a cycle of endless handwringing over how we didn’t deliver enough economic benefits to Americans

i hate this fucking app, i got blocked by two people for completely inoffensive posts just because they didn't agree with them. you all are setting yourself up for maximal viral damage, groupthink is not good for the memetic immune system

why would i never want to see another user again fuck that shit
My actual real tips for Bluesky: 1) blocks work very well and basically permanently sever you from ever seeing another user ever again and vice versa, use liberally 2) feeds are fun! Check out the cat pics feed 3) use alt text
