I don't think this is actually true, Truth Social has about as many users as Bluesky.

You said you read the book but you don't even know what it's about, clearly you're the liar here 🤷♂️

A classic Bluesky move to block me after commenting on this. Must only let people respond with unwavering agreement!

Why don't you let profoundly autistic non-verbal people speak for themselves @esqueer.net? Why don't you interview some and ask them how they feel about this? Invite them to post on Bluesky about their experience.

"They spoke a lot to the parents of autistic children but almost never to the children themselves." OK why don't you speak to them? Where are all the profoundly autistic non-verbal people on Bluesky? People keep getting upset about this, but who are the big profoundly autistic Bluesky accounts?

"Cut back on immigration" lol. Show me the passages in the book that contradict his statements.

No, man. First, the book was released in 2020, not 2025. And second, it was not advocacy for immediate political changes, it was long term ideas for retaining America's greatness. And third, he hasn't walked back or contradicted anything said in the book.

It's bad for democracy if Trump wins, and advocating a policy that raises that chances of Trump winning is bad for whatever liberal cause you're advocating.
In American, in 2025, winning is much, much more important than whatever extra marginally better position you want to advocate for.

Does this make Trump an enemy of abortion restrictionists? Shouldn't evangelicals have shown up en masse at Mar-a-lago during the campaign shouting, protesting and demanding that Trump sign a national abortion ban within his first hundred days? This is the kind of self-defeating stuff leftists do.

I don't know what to tell you man, other than Republicans do politics a lot better than leftists do. Like do you think it was a betrayal by Trump that he didn't campaign on a national abortion ban, or promise to revoke Mifepristone, or run on making it a crime to cross states to get an abortion?

Why do you think raising the salience of Trump's best topic would surely help immigrants? Likewise, do you think raising the salience of trans rights in the 2026 election would help trans people? It's nuts that you people can't identify with this kind of basic rational line of thought.

No I'm just saying you're too dumb to understand the nuance of needing to compromise to win elections, for the broader good. It's a big problem with the left!

See above. It's completely consistent to think/write that "if only people thought X we'd be a better country" yet not wanting to pursue X because in politics you can't just impose your beliefs onto the electorate, if you want to win.

It's completely consistent. Like, I personally hate guns. I think the US would be radically safer and better without widespread gun ownership. But do I want Democrats to run next election on a big anti-gun platform? Hell no. Because I don't want them to lose the election, and that's a loser.

That doesn't at all say? One Billion Americans was a general policy prescription, but it didn't get into political tactics. What he's been saying lately is that despite all the things, immigration is still Trump's strongest topic with the public.

It seems covid had something to do with it, but why it hit UCSD hard seems to be a UC specific issue, at least that's the case being made here
