The deep goal of bluesky is to decentralize the social internet so that every individual controls their experience of it rather than having it be controlled by 5 random billionaires. Everyone thinks they signed up for a demuskified twitter...we actually signed an exciting and bizarre experiment.

i don't think we need to take "the left drove tech oligarchs to the right" seriously as an argument. all parties involved know they're either lying or being told a lie

“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.
It’s not easy and takes constant practice!

Elon spends his days playing Diablo IV, taking credit for things other people did, plotting the destruction of his enemies and the American economy (except his sectors) under the guise of being a truth-telling crusader, and posting stupid, juvenile tweets as the new co-President of the United States

Billionaires are bowing down.
Media figures are bending a knee.
Public figures want to accommodate.
It is up to us to form a new opposition.
We will not back down. We must not obey.

I love how no one engages with trolls on bluesky. We just block, report, and move on.

The idea that those on the left will ever agree enough to be an “echo chamber” is rather funny to me.
We couldn’t even agree whether to refer to Kamala Harris by her first or last name.

Like others, I fear the threat of government retribution, political vengeance and an angry right-wing mob. But I know that giving into it will only strengthen Trump and undermine the future of our democracy. Trump wants us to be scared. He wants us to give up — gradually and then suddenly.
The Choices I’ve Made
From Marc | Since the election, media figures and outlets have followed suit — each moving gradually towards obedience to Trump and then suddenly.

Our global economy is generational theft, as the old and wealthy trade the planet’s future for profit and comfort.
Fossil fuels = unlivable Earth.
Short term gains = ecological collapse.
The victims have no voice or vote, those most affected have least say. We're not good stewards of this earth.
