hey remember when the ex-twitter Bsky head of T&S vindictively banned the author of a (perfectly legal and non offending) bot that embarrassed him, instantly rejected their appeal and how they were reinstated with no comment or apology after the userbase rioted?

Worth noting, Loren Taylor is a landlord who made over $100K on just one property in 2024, per his statement of economic interest report turned in this week. His relationship with landlord advocates makes a lot more sense.

This is the most wretched campaign of deliberate, explicit persecution the United States has perpetrated against a minority group in decades. Many of the most important people in politics and journalism are busying themselves trying to figure out how little to say or do about it.
The Bureau of Prisons is moving forward with plans to move transgender inmates out of prisons that align with their gender identity and into facilities that align with their assigned sex at birth.
Federal prisons prep to move trans inmates as early as next week

Note the sleight-of-hand here: those defending the status quo CHOOSE to focus on the protesters and the validity of their tactics, then cry "See? People are talking about the protesters, not the issues."
YOU are talking about the protesters. That is a choice.

anyone acting in good faith would have attended the book event & asked questions of Jeffries which he'd have had to answer. it might have been a learning experience for observers. instead, protesting & disrupting the bookstore's event draws attention, not to the issues, but to the protesters.
the block now being in play tragically prevents you from going back and seeing the start of the conversation. i'm afraid Joyce kicked us all off by clutching her pearls over how dare protesters demand a politician act on their behalf at an event where he was trying to sell his book.
