If you aren't seeing skeets from some of your fave people, they might have been labeled "Rude" by bsky mods. Idk what they are thinking, I don't need a mommy to tell me who to be buddies with. Anyway, go into Settings > moderation > bluesky moderation (advanced) and turn Rude off.

Yesterday, the Democrats offered change, hopefully they will deliver better than Obama did. If he had just punished the bankers for their malfeasance we wouldnβt have ended up with Trump and his billionaires.

No desire to do what is best for the city and its people. Just him thinking his race, class and privilege should put him above his opponent.

No brains. No soul. No values. No care. No heart. No empathy.

Just money.
Quit giving them more. Starve the beast.
I do think yesterdayβs results reinforced the dynamic that while much of the American leadership class is chickenshit, most of the electorate is not

It's almost like people who do that do it because they don't like any of those groups.
So gross and xenophobic to fault pro-Palestinian groups and try to make them out to be fascist. Why not be mad at Biden for funding and supporting a genocide? He chose to of his own free will. But no, itβs the fault of a small group of Arab voters in Michigan. Somehow nothing is ever Bidenβs faultβ¦

Mamdani having antitrust enforcer Lina Khan on his team is going to keep monopolies and hedge fund managers like Bill Ackman (stay in your lane) in NYC up at night :)

Weβre literally in an era where itβs mainstream on the right to question the benefit of democracy in favor of fascism.
And Harris wouldnβt even condemn an unpopular, US supported genocideβ¦ that doesnβt scream far left to me
Tom is an establishment Republican who somehow canβt connect his tenuous grip on reality with the rise of Trumpism.
A man who dedicated his life and career to sowing the crop, and then acts incredulous toward what that harvest yielded.
I feel like embedded in these arguments is always the idea that we should abandon trans people, indigenous people or really anything that isnβt βmiddle Americaβ approved
Maybe you just embrace what is ethically right and win by being better? If weβre abandoning vulnerable groups to win then why win
Some policies from modern democratic presidents:
mass incarceration, mass deportation, unaccountable military action in foreign nations, financial deregulation, increased privatization, austerity
I guess these are left wing?
What an absolute bozo. The Atlantic has really fallen off a cliff
Itβs amazing how people can start with an idea they like and then try to cram reality in to fit it.
If anything, democrats have gone slightly right in that timeframe, but the GOP went so unbelievably far right that it made them look more left.
The GOP really mastered the Overton window strategy
Wow UNC will hire just about anyone these days huh
