Bluesky's head of Trust and Safety seems to insinuates that Sarah Kendzior was banned due to the content of her posts, her posts being about the transnational crime syndicate that is the Trump Regime.
False attribution. If a person is suspended it is because of their identity? Could it not be because of their content? I wrote about it here aaron.leaflet.pub/3m52nqqmk322v

If Sarah Kendzior is indeed blocked on @bsky.app, this is a completely unjustified and highly questionable move. Sarah Kendzior is among the best voices of knowledge-based critical journalism in the US. See to it that this is corrected immediately and with an apology, @pfrazee.com!

In the coming months there will be a massive bailout for AI firms. No crumbs will be left for any but the already obscenely wealthy. The coffers for everyone else will be empty. And democratic leadership will tell you this is all for the best. The alternative would be worse. These will all be lies

Sheldon remind me when did Chuck Schumer fight united with the Democratic nominee for mayor of New York
The sooner we get past internal recriminations and back to fighting united, the better off we all are — the likelier our victory next November.

Same old bullshit
The only thing the Dems consistently fight "united" is criticism of their own party's callous and feckless cowardice

COVID was the ruling classes experiment to see if people would give up on the social contract to prioritize themselves, once they saw people were willing to let disabled, elderly and poor people die for their own convenience, they have slowly taken the mask fully off day by day and now we are here.

They’ll insist this is a
one-off victory — something that can only happen in New York & nowhere else.
They’re wrong.
New York is the world financial capital — home of Wall Street & billionaires from across the globe.
If everyday people can defeat oligarchs here, we can defeat oligarchy anywhere.

Apparently Schumer wrote in "the Baileys" on his ballot
NYT: Even on Election Day, Schumer Is Mum on Mamdani
By Annie Karni
The top Senate Democrat never endorsed Zohran Mamdani, his party’s young left-wing nominee for mayor, and had yet to even say who he had voted for.

Every time one of these mass murderers dies without having faced any consequence for the massacres they ordered, the lives they destroyed, the societies they razed to the ground… I realize how far we are from a world with justice. Rest in hell Dick Cheney. Your legacy is death.

You don’t have to mourn war criminals. You don’t have to issue condolences to their families.
You don’t have to launder their legacies.
Save your grief for the innocents they killed, maimed or tortured without ever seeing justice served to their executioners.

No more Black or trans staffers. No politics of any kind. The cowardice of mainstream media isn't just insulting, it's *boring.* Now TV is just like any other beauty rag. Why not just kill it quickly? Why the slow-motion pretense?
thank you for all the support; the statement from our union is now live here with some more reporting.
now that this is public I can confirm that the majority of today’s layoffs were women of color. there are no longer any Black women working at Teen Vogue.

When I see "the resistance" get up and make these bold speeches, and then I see the signs saying "if Kamala had won, we'd be a brunch," I don't feel hopeful. I feel annoyed. Because brunch is where they were when millions of children were acquiring lifelong illness and bird flu was training up.

I can't help but wonder how much of the current moment in world history has been influenced by the unchecked spread of a brain damaging virus known to affect rational judgement and impulse control. I mean, clearly it's just one factor of many, but I think it is overlooked as an amplifier

I hope that more people will wake up & realize that there will be no "voting our way out" of this. The system was always aligned against fairness, but in the current paradigm where the right no longer has any checks on lawlessness they will continue to change the rules to insure they maintain power

Certainty feels comforting, but change and uncertainty are the only reliable principles of history.
Every social form that seems impenetrable and invulnerable will fall. Every power on earth can be destroyed, every hierarchy leveled. It can also always be strengthened or bathed in yet more blood.
