Is there any way to stop people from following you on bluesky? I rarely comment and hardly ever post and I get 1-2 follow notifications a day. I have > 2X followers than people I follow. I know they are either bots or farming, because they don't stick around. I'd just rather not let them follow.

It's alright, children. Life is made up of meetings and partings. That is the way of it.

As a civilization, the era of, "oh look, fire in the sky, let's sacrifice someone on an altar" is really not as far in the past as we think. Conspiracy theories and pseudo science therapies are billion dollar industries.

This feels like real progress in how to deal with the right wing media empire.
“Don’t feed the trolls” also extends to bad opinion pieces in papers of record.
They run them bc people react to them the most.
If we stop linking to bad columns and instead post thinkers we find valuable (& generate convo around it), incentives change.

All this talk of people leaving Twitter. Twitter doesn't exist anymore. The name was changed, verification turned into a subscription, blocking dropped, content moderation non-existant, rampant algorithm manipulation. People aren't leaving Twitter. Twitter left the people.

I think we are understanding the role of social networks in politics now.
As the left flees and X loses broader relevance, it becomes a more overtly right-wing site, @alibreland.bsky.social writes. But the right needs liberals on X in order to push conservative perspectives into the mainstream.
The Right Has a Bluesky Problem
