We’ve already done the experiment of letting right oriented grifters becoming deregulated. It’s called X and we all fled because it became a shit hole.

I’m alright without the Andre Tate fans and fight videos and racism. I don’t believe those are the hallmarks of conservatism in real life, but they are on Twitter.

Yuck, the post Scott is quoting is so gross. These people are entirely unserious human beings.

Agreed 100% But lets not give Fascism-enablers a platform/more visibility.

💯💯💯💯💯💯💯👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 exactly. No notes. Get that bs out of here.

I’ll note that the OP is so committed to “ideological diversity” that they have turned off replies and quotes because being told your tired opinion is wrong is somehow not the diversity they were looking for. The fragility is so often one way…

I interact and engage on bluesky way more than other social networks (and way more than I ever did on twitter) precisely because it's more chill and respectful of folks. I like bluesky exactly how it is.

Also, I would be perfectly happy if it wasn't ideologically diverse. I don't have the need to be challenged on social media. It's a space where I just want to engage with things I have an interest in and with people I like.

Hard agree. But I also hope posting here just becomes 'posting'. We all mix up protocols, servers and platforms. More soft walls would benefit everyone.

As I keep saying these days: playing Devil's Advocate is supposed to be just that-playing. You use it when you need to argue a position or see both sides of a decision, it's not supposed to be a personality trait

Bluesky is 99% authoritarian-left furries

Blocked him, thanks

Agreed.

"Ideological diversity" is the new "free speech".

Yeah, these people only survive by gaming algorithms. Conflict is one way to do that, since it tends to cause more people to comment and platforms like Facebook amplify threads with many comments.
