    Can we stop using the term “TERF”? It doesn’t mean anything at this point. The transphobic assholes on X certainly aren’t radical feminists.

    Why do so many people think they MUST be heard? 😆 That’s one of the reasons I deleted Reddit. Too many weirdos thinking that I owed them a debate or something whenever I commented something they disagreed with. It happened on Twitter too but I got rid of that when musk announced that he was going through with the purchase.

      Ideally everyone would be able to set up rules as to who and what they see.

      Something like (pseudo syntax initially like SQL, but went off track):

      IF sum(this.poster.posts.karma) < -100 OR this.score < -10 OR sum(this.poster.opinions.rating WHERE this.poster.opinions.source IN me.friends) < 0 THEN false ELSE true END.

      The reason people post on these sites is to make themselves heard I guess. You just have to ignore or block your way into the level of interaction you’re comfortable with.

      I DISAGREE with you. YOU ARE NOW OBLIGATED TO ENTER AN EPIC DEBATE TO THE DEATH WITH ME BECAUSE REACHING A CONSENSUS IS IMPOSSIBLE IN THE INTERET!!!

    Moreover, Bluesky already feels a bit like how social media would look if a non-TERF version of the Guardian was running it. It’s very liberal, very centrist, and very ‘don’t rock the boat too much’.

    We’ll be keeping an eye on this, and for the moment we’ll be posting to both Twitter and Bluesky. We look forward to engaging with you wherever you end up.

    “we’re not ready to choose between the cop bar and the Nazi bar, so for now we’ll keep hanging out in both.”

    Of course they don’t mention fediverse as an option. Of course.

    Okay man, we get it. You like Bluesky. You’ve posted at least 10 articles of people moving from X to Bluesky.

      Strong shill op for blue sky is underway no doubt, i can’t tell if it is organic since they are getting large user inflows or jay graber is funding these endless fake news headlines.

      we will never know… but we do know that corpos love them shill ops to gain market share.

    Americans are funny.

    *Here let’s abandon the ZA fascist owned social media and move to the Russian fascist owned social media.

    Reality does trump fiction.

      Are the Russian fascists in the room right now?

      Bluesky was founded by Jack Dorsey and is currently majority-owned and ran by Jay Graber, a Chinese-American woman from Tulsa.

      Hell, I even searched specifically for controversies and Russian connections, and absolutely everything that came up said the exact opposite of your claims here.
