My intention had been to initiate discourse, but I've had a major personal tragedy occur which requires all my attention. It wasn't my intention to have you respond only to be met by silence, but I must put my personal matter first. I wish you success in your advocacy.

You never need to apologize for lengthy multi-part responses to me as long as it's good faith dialogue which it is. My own timeline (mostly on Twitter when I was more active pre-Elon) is filled with multi-part replies, often longer than yours.

The character limits led to an unintentional misunderstanding.

Wasn't saying you were. The Twitter algorithms are rage-baiting and trained users to become (more) reactionary; myself included despite being disinclined. I was trying to give context with emphasis that I was making honest inquiry to the other poster, and followed with broadening the scope.

That's part of why I asked an open ended question.

BlueSky is an opportunity for all of us to return to civil dialog and reclaim our humanity from the reactionary rage-baiting of Twitter.

I'm fully onboard with big-picture strategies, but we mustn't lose sight of the individual people either.

What's the "business plan" of this particular ICE Agent violently throwing that woman to the floor?

How do you propose to deny him of his "appetite" for unprovoked violence against women half his size?

Even the least violent solution of a larger man choosing to act as a human shield won't stop it.

David, according to my predictive algorithm, everyone that doesn't like Don't Look Up gets eaten by something called a "Bronterac" for whatever that's worth.

Angela consistently fails both tests.

I don't excuse MAGA when they do it. Regardless of any underlying cause, it doesn't excuse the personal agency driving their bigotry. MAGA can choose to do better... So can you Angela.
