but both parties are the same🧍🏾‍♂️

“It’s important not to have this place be an echo chamber” is something that sounds correct but falls apart when you realize it actually means pretending arguments done in bad faith are genuine. It’s the “I’m just asking questions” of social media

just block them

very fall!!!!

chyle I think about what Aretha said everyday

PERIOD

also @ghostvphr.bsky.social. but no like it's the last piece of the puzzle

now we need our other friends to join

we had to step away from the ghetto chyle

HI HI HI 😍

Ohioans Reject Redistricting Reform, Protecting GOP Gerrymanders After legal battles over the wording of the ballot language, Issue 1 lost on Tuesday. It would have created an independent redistricting commission.

Ohio’s Secretary of State, Frank LaRose, helped craft the ballot language for Issue 1, redistricting reform — language some voters are saying is so confusing that they accidentally voted against a measure they intended to support. boltsmag.org/ohio-re...

oh brother we're back to the days of collins feigning shock and then voting with trump 100%of the time when needed. we have literally regressed back 4 years

hi 😍😍😍

2 tips to immediately begin protecting your peace here on bsky:

- go to moderation settings, create a new list for trolls, and subscribe to block anyone you add. Add anyone who disturbs your peace, do not respond, do not engage. Friends who trust you can sub as well.

- sub to this list now:

White people prefer fascism over multiracial democracy. Apparently so do Hispanic and Asian men. Stunning

It’s still really shocking to me just how effective the anti immigrant rhetoric was. It puts the holocaust in context though. If you dehumanize a group enough, large majorities will see them as subhuman and won’t care as terrible things happening to them

When do Democratic electeds realize that X is an aggressively hostile rightwing space and stop posting there?

Look at the replies to this Liz Warren tweet. MAGAs run the joint now.

Bluesky is built to make social more like the Web again, so we will never suppress links. Link to your writing, your art, your personal site — this is the social internet, designed from the ground up to be open and interoperable.

ofc! it's both illuminating but also kind of depressing cause it sounds like a good battle to fight but also seems impossible. but idk if they're (we??) are up for it, or if they even know that it's necessary

Bluesky Might End Up Defeating Twitter Once and for All The app has the edge where X once dominated: news and live events.

hi! as a fellow Ohioan, I feel your anguish. but your thread made me think about this New Nation article and the work that the party has to do to build community with communities www.thenation.com/article/poli...

you are such a good woman

it hurts so much....

working on it. I wanna be away from that nazi hellhole

HI 😍😍😍 I LIKE THIS PLACE

but what I've heard is that in the swing states the turnout wasn't the problem it's that the people who DID turnout voted for trump. in blue states especially tho ppl just didn't turnout for her that were likeli Dem voters and that's part of the reason she's losing the popular vote

Also the “dems need to talk to the working class” takes are bullshit. There are plenty of working class Black, Jewish, and Indigenous voters. We managed not to vote for a Nazi. If you aren’t asking why so many white people chose to support a fascist over a competent black woman, you’re the problem

same with right now, I would rather trump had won in 2020 then this inflation would be tied to him and the GOP and Dems could've swept
