Australian, trying to figure out how to support the US now they are being led by a fascist. It's all very depressing rn. I'm in my sad era. 😔

Not sure who needs to hear this but cutting Trump supporters out of your life is not petty or vengeful- it’s actually a vital social tool.

Shaming and shunning have long been ways that a civilization makes clear what we consider acceptable and unacceptable behavior.

Bullshit. If I had wanted power, I would have kept my mouth shut.

I preferred my conscience.

One thing I hope we can do as Bluesky gets larger is be less tolerant of the resistance grifters who will try to hack the platform for engagement and growth without any interest in adding anything substantive or meaningful

It’s a different kind of troll.

I did not expect several million people who showed up to vote Trump out in 2020 would disengage and not bother to keep him out in 2024.

(Although this merely hardens a view I've long been on about: there's nothing safe about running a moderate-oriented campaign, you're just losing votes.)

This place has now become big enough to do what Muskland used to do — give me a sense of what smart people are thinking and, importantly, what they don't know. For example, it turns out that many aren't aware that it's well established that most people don't connect wage growth with inflation 1/

The key to the long term success of this app will be for it to smoothly transition from its initial hype and user base to become a true digital “town square.”

To that end, anyone with influence should encourage fellow musicians, artists, athletes, organizations, sports teams, etc to join.

The guy who spent the last week of the campaign harassing women has regrets he didn't do it more.

If Dems flip #CA45 & #CA13, then the U.S. House majority will have literally come down to the 3 NC the GOP flipped thanks to its new gerrymander.

And that itself hinged on NC's supreme court flipping in 2022.

Coincidentally I just wrote this today: boltsmag.org/state-suprem...

In 2016-2017, there was a drive to support our papers of record. Not this time. While there will be some great reporting by excellent journalists, the institutions themselves are obviously refusing to adequately frame the crisis. Support independent media.
By this definition of "skeptic"

Hitler was a "skeptic" of the Jewish people.

Step one: We all need to support pro-democracy podcasts, radio shows, Substacks, and YouTube channels.
Step two: Financiers will take notice and invest.
Step three: Repeat.
Liberals need to stop pretending this isn’t the problem. MAGA out influences and out messages us and they barely win but they win. If you want “the left” to win again choose wisely what influencers you give your support to.

We need to create our own Shitlib-less Pro-Liberty Propaganda Machine!
Wondering what went wrong?
