This one's ours, let's take another. Chicago. Came for the infrastructure and urban planning talk, staying for the other nonsense. Mostly an idiot. Same handle on MSTDN

You're not gonna believe this but @cbsnews.com appears to not have a story about some of the largest mass protests in American history anywhere on its main page.

The 70+ year olds at this protest make me happy. Talk to as many as you can- they have the stories.

This is a very good point about DHS. They direct harassment campaigns on Twitter using quote-tweets.

this has to be it bc nothing else makes sense. there aren’t enough people here to bother with. not enough cultural capital (sorry) either. virtually nobody here is persuadable.

they’re following us bc they crave our attention. our hate reflects them as powerful. narcissism at work.

I legitimately got chills watching this. She’s a crusader.

I would knock doors if she were the Democratic nominee for president, running on a campaign of de-Nazifying our government.

ICE is all over the South Side: South Shore & Back of the Yards among many communities. Hyde Park has also been hit, with agents prowling thru the neighborhood, incl near Kenwood Academy HS. The Herald reports a UChicago international student was questioned + 3 workers were abducted from the street.

It was right to ban those accounts, and it would also be right to ban a bunch of these government accounts. DHS does not have a right to a Bluesky account. Neither does the State Dept, or any other govt agency.

And they're making these accounts for the overt purpose of wrecking the site.

We all should have our guilty little pleasures that we're willing to pay more for. For some it's shoes. For others it's stationery. And that's A-OK.

The reason they're coming after this place is because they can't control the people on it and it drives them nuts.

Supposedly the State Department Bluesky account with a post that says

Historians of the future: Rest assured, millions of us know all this in real time. We are horrified, shocked, enraged, and ashamed. We are acting, in a thousand ways, to oppose it. This cannot, and will not, be how the United States ends. trib.al/EOixNrF

I suspect the MAGA government decided to launch all these Bluesky accounts tonight to try to bait people in advance of No Kings.

These people have incurable 4chan brain and this is how they operate.

Block them. Do not engage. Do not give them what they want.
