@mrjamesob.bsky.social from my Facebook memories, from 4 years ago. It's a sad state of affairs in terms of the direction of travel we find ourselves, when in 4 years the poignance of this message seems to have increased ten fold.
Are we destined to make the same mistakes, over, and over again?

I reminded that the petition to revoke art 50 and stay in the EU got some 6m votes. Would be interesting to see a Venn diagram of the people who trashed that petition but exalt this petition.

"X rewards assholery, shithousery, amateurish trolling and outrage baiting. That’s what brings in the bucks. X isn’t a shithole just because of who’s on there, or because Elon laid off lots of moderators. It’s full of ragebait because that’s what is rewarded." www.techtris.co.uk/p/musks-sadi...

If you really want to encounter a lot of views different from your own, go read some books. You don’t need right wing assholes screaming at you on social media for that. This can just be a place where you chill.
