🚨👀 Very concerning to all Bluesky users that Sarah Kendzior, a prominent researcher and journalist writing about authoritarian regimes, has been banned from here two days ago and she still doesn't know why.

@jay.bsky.team @aaron.bsky.team @sarahkendzior.bsky.social
In a rare case of Substack notes usefulness, I just learned that Sarah Kendzior (author of They Knew and a brilliant writer) got bounced from Bluesky. What the hell? new @sarahkendzior.bsky.social

Trump did the thing, everyone knows he did the thing, and he's got an entire political party and associated media apparatus trying to cover up his clear involvement in the thing. One of the sickest, most sordid chapters in an especially sick and sordid period of modern American history.

You know, Democrats, there really isn't an upper limit on the amount of outrage you can have over the president of the United States being a child rapist. It should be the primary, if not the only thing you talk about. Go ballistic because it's the right thing to do.

Bluesky suspended Sarah Kendzior today for no reason whatsoever. She just shared excerpts of her articles, which were as always incisive and not offensive at all. Hey @pfrazee.com this is super not OK. I know her- we've interacted a fair bit via chats and her work is essential.
