Hello Bluesky, I've been told this app has become the place to go for common sense political discussion and analysis. So I'm thrilled to be here to engage with all of you.

This thread is staggeringly naive about what China is and what it wants, as are the people retweeting it as if it's some sort of cogent analysis.
I don't know how many of y'all are watching the migration of American TikTokers to RedNote, but it's the most fascinating thing I've EVER SEEN HAPPEN ONLINE.

It seems like people are identifying a few things about bluesky that feel to be working:
-Quote tweet function
-Exclusivity of invite codes
-Intangible culture of “posting”

Honestly it just sort of feels like how twitter *used* to be. Is that just bc of similar aesthetics?
