BlueSky needs to start removing these porn bots as they are becoming a problem. What is with all these accounts with hundreds of followers but no written record. Vetting has become a job for what is supposed to be a better app than X… right now it seems like bots by the thousands have moved in

Trump alone didn't beat the justice system.
He had help.
It took Oligarchs relentlessly amplifying his lies on their media platforms.
Ethically compromised members of the Supreme Court.
70+ million willing to vote for a convicted felon.
There's a lot to fix. But it can be fixed. It must.

Under the guise of defending free speech, Musk has turned X into one of the most restrictive, deceptive and manipulative platforms on the internet.
He promised to make X a source of truth. He was called out by his own AI for being one of the most prolific amplifiers of misinformation.

When I think about Joe & Mika appeasing Trump so they can maintain their comfy lives, I think about Ruby Freeman and Shaye Moss enduring years of harassment for simply doing their jobs.
So when Joe defends it by saying people need to live in the real world, he should respectfully go screw himself.
