2/Be aware you are effectively operating behind enemy lines. It may be tactically useful to do so, but don’t pretend there is anything “good” happening here. For all the talk about critical thinking, folks could try using some for once. 🤦
1/There is nothing more embarrassing than watching hordes of liberals willingly herd themselves into a pen funded by Russian capital. Blue sky’s principal funder Blockchain Capital LLC is run in part by Kirill Dorofeev, who also works for VK, Russia’s state social network.

The US is preparing to announce a $275 million military aid package for Ukraine
This package is expected to include HIMARS ammunition, artillery shells, and Javelin missiles, among other equipment.
The announcement comes as the Biden administration aims to expedite the delivery of approximately $7 billion in military aid to Ukraine before President-elect Trump's inauguration, amid concerns that the incoming administration may halt future weapons shipments. #AureFreePress#News#press
We need Democratic electeds to be sharing ideas for local and state action to protect Americans from the Trump regime. They should be making concrete plans. Also…. 3/
So me saying the Democrats have always been a party too far to my right? That's not me saying, yay fascist party. That's me saying don't come at me with your entitled ahistorical modified right wing propaganda about how the Democrats used to be liberals.
That's BULLSHIT. Since the 1960s they've been far less racist but still plenty racist than the GOP while being very pro business.
I'm campaigning for the Dems (as I did in 2016, 2018, 2020, 2022 and 2024) until there's a better option.
Apparently needs to be said again. Why were most Black Americans Republicans until 1968?
Both parties were extremely, blatantly racist until about 1968. Yes, that includes Kennedy and absolutely LBJ. But while the Democrats tried to soften that with Civil Rights rulings from the Republican Warren's Court and then legislation, the GOP led by Nixon decided they didn't need people of color after all and went more openly racist. Then illiberal under Reagan and the Bushes and then fascist under 45.
Edited the last one for a bit of clarity. Everybody's opinion should matter. But just expecting your opinion to matter more than others, especially when you haven't put in the blood for it? No.
And don't anybody dare come at me with Genocide Joe propaganda.
I'm as irate and horrified as any one by what's going on in Palestine and Lebanon. We SHOULD be protesting that war. And the war in Sudan. And the ethnic cleansing in Western China.
I can't stand in the middle of my campus and demand to be heard and expect that to be remotely enough.
How insulting is it to the Black people who died for the right to be considered citizens, including the very first person martyred in the Revolutionary War, for generations for you to think your opinion (or mine!) deserves the same consideration as Black folks?
And then there's women and their fight for being considered human. And the Chinese. Then the Mexicans in this country. LGBTQIA folks.
I've said it before. There are ways that I'm VERY far left. I don't want to defund the police and prison system. I want to yeet them into the sun and start over from scratch.
I think any policy short of abolition is short minded, deeply rooted in (often unintentional) racialized or racist thinking and frankly disqualifying from even allowing one a place at the table to discuss it.
But you can't find me talking like that in my timeline, can you? Why? Because it DOESN'T WORK.
@TonyStark reasonable question. What is certain is Bluesky was created to be decentralized by Jack Dorsey while he was still Twitter Ceo. When Jack sold Xitter he splintered Bluesky off.
He claims it's decentralized and privately funded. All I can see so far that's decentralized is there's no algorithm and privately funded is a scary thought for me.
Jack left most of Bluesky to the new CEO Jay Graber, who previously worked as a software engineer for the cryptocurrency Zcash.
@iDGS@philip_cardella Hi. While I definitely am not joining it, does anyone have the links for this information? I’ve seen the claim a few times and asked a few times, and no reply comes. I’ve also searched myself and have been unable to find anything. Thanks!
