So, it takes over three weeks for BlueSky to respond to reports of consistent harassment from another account. And of course, just like on MuskX, if the account is a right winger, BlueSky will do nothing.

It’s refreshing to see politicians skip the motorcade and hop on public transit! NYC’s Mayor and Ireland’s Prime Minister recently rode the G train together, sharing laughs and chatting with commuters along the way.

When Reagan became POTUS, 90 percent of the American media landscape was spread among over 50 competing companies; now only five corporate conglomerates dominate 90 percent of the media Americans consume.

What is philosophy? What is it actually for? Joi Brooks asked that question, and I gave my answer to it. www.youtube.com/shorts/Itksa...

Thanks for the article. There is really obviously something very wrong with every member of Trumps cabinet including Trump and in an everyday life you would turn and run to avoid contact with them

And now on cue, neo-con Rahm Emanuel is attacking Hasan Piker. Because this is how the US does politics: antagonistic name-calling and slogans. Anything but talking about actual issues much less discussing how to make life better for people.

If you believe that Trump is the first US president to be against Freedom of the Press, blame your education because you are mistaken. They don't teach history in the US.

Douglas Giles, PhD w/o BS @dgilesphd.bsky.social · 17/09/2026

The problem here is the continual, unreflective labeling of Hasan Piker as "left wing." Seriously, is Piker actually left wing? Or is he fake left?

I just read some state that "no serious researcher or thinker would put 'PhD' behind their name." That's one of the more bizarre things I've ever read.

America isn’t the way it is because Trump is president. Trump is president because America is the way it is. The book "Getting Beyond Trump" goes beyond the echo chambers, looks at what's really going on in the United States, and talks about what few others will. dgilesauthor.com/getting-beyo...

The knee-jerk "it's Nazi" reaction to the Space Force uniform is understandable, but the regime's latest fantasy is basically the uniform of numerous evil regimes in science fiction. That's the important connection here--the childish obsession with science fiction fantasies.

Germany's AfD is typical of right-wing political parties. They oppose the large majority of people in their country but try to stir up enough fear and hate against foreigners to gain power.
