The real question is not "Why is Bluesky so left-coded," the real question is "Why can't the right exist in a social media environment without algorithmic assistance, where people can ignore them"

this should be getting way more attention. it's why Bondi, Patel, Noem, Homan, Hegseth and the other goons in Trump's admin have no fear of future legal action against them. There won't be an election in '26 or '28 to bring an opposing party into power.
Stephen Miller said the quiet part out loud. Trump has “plenary authority,” then suddenly went silent. Their plan wasn’t to be public yet. Clearly, someone hit the panic button in his earpiece.
It gets weirder: CNN uploaded the interview with the “plenary authority” comment edited out.

Rep. Steven Horsford to Greer: "So the trade representative hasn't spoken to the POTUS about a global reordering of trade, but yet he announced it on a tweet? WTF! Who is in charge? It looks like your boss just pulled the rug out from under you. There is no strategy ... is this market manipulation?"

Trump is short-selling America—deliberately tanking the economy so that businesses and entire industries bend the knee and beg him to save them.
Thanks, @chrismurphyct.bsky.social, for sounding the alarm.
Now, what is Congress going to do about it?

old Soviet joke for our times:
Guy stops by the newsstand every day, scans the front page, doesn’t buy the paper. One day the vendor asks what he’s up to.
Guy says: “looking for an obituary.”
Vendor says “those are towards the back of the paper, comrade.”
Guy says: “not the one I’m looking for.”
