In case you’re referring to me, I hope you understand my comment was commiserating, not explaining.

It’s literally the lower left quadrant of the Political Compass. Libertarian doesn’t automatically mean “on the right”. People like your uncle have a lot to learn

It’s more about your control over your own data - if you run the server, only you can take down your own account.
As for the setup, it’s literally just a Docker compose file that stands up the PDS itself and a Caddy reverse proxy for HTTPS termination.

Good point! The self-contained and open nature of atproto is such a novel thing that the law hasn’t evolved to address. Third-party labelers are opt-in and the labels themselves are not applied to the original post’s repo (if I understand correctly), so the roles according to §230 are very muddled.

Interesting to think about... based on the replies to the QT, would it make more sense for atproto moderation labelers to be bundled/tied to the AppView for legal reasons? Given the AppView renders the content for the end user, would a labeler associated with that be considered first-party?

Vance would have to nominate a new VP subject to approval by both the House and Senate as required by the 25th Amendment. Miller wouldn’t get confirmed even with this Congress

...but the damage, division, and polarization will just continue and possibly get worse until you let that shit go and talk to people - in good faith - like they're people first.

Nuance isn't illegal and we're never going to make positive change as a society until we start recognizing that and considering the human individuals with complex thoughts, feelings, and opinions we're interacting with. I know that's not as easy as reducing them to a label... (5/6)
