He's one of most dangerous amplifiers of disinformation on the planet.
He bought the Presidency.
He attacks anyone who disagrees with him with bots, trolls and censorship.

Thanksgiving challenge! What’s something that you never thought you’d be grateful for but today you are?
Me: Being an alcoholic. Other people can get through life without ever perusing spiritual growth. I have to, or I may drink again. It’s not an easy journey but it has so many gifts.

Me: I’m thankful for being arrested in 2014. It propelled me to get clean from a 14yr opioid addiction. Clean 10-years now.
But I’m REALLY grateful for the friends and family who support me.

1. The difference so far (and for god's sake let's keep it that way) between X and Bluesky is not between right and left but between abuse and respect.

Bluesky tip for newbies: Bluesky has no real algorithm. Likes here do nothing but show the poster that you enjoyed their content.
That kindness is always going to be appreciated by creators, but if you want to help to boost something here, you have to repost it so others see it. 🙂
