ratio

you can tell how liberal this place is by all the posts celebrating thanksgiving

bluesky has great moderation settings and they do seem very open to criticism and change, so i totally get why this is the best social media platform of its kind. i just think it's bad to idolize a platform! just like it's bad to idolize a celebrity you know?

i am slightly wary of the sentiment that blsky is sooo much better than twitter n everything is awesome and there's no problems here idk i don't think idolizing a platform is a helpful thing to do. and there has already been issues with palestinian bans and other stuff older users are warning about

why is there an extra stripe ???

another thing on the echo-chamber bs, i block people i find annoying or harmful. don't you? why would i want to see people who hate me or is wrong or pisses me off? i curate my online spaces, and i think everyone should! yeah ill look at news and stuff but i dont wanna hear people's shitty opinions

hearing about the young turks pisses me off so much bc that was the name of the group who literally committed the armenian genocide. why on earth would you name yourself that?

adding "hope this helps" to any comment or sentence makes it so much better to me

why have black friday sales been going on for over a week now i kinda thought thanksgiving was last week but no it's this thursday ???

i just got here but the fact that i've seen liberals/centrists say that there needs to be a place where people can healthily disagree rather than being an echo-chamber is so ridiculous. i can't have healthy disagreements w people who want me dead. there's no middle ground. there's no being civil.
