Nothing to see here. All totally logical and defensible for sure 🤢

Many leftists need to reckon with the way they are perceived, and how unwittingly divisive their behaviour is at times. It is what is driving younger men, from all racial blocs out of the left wing party. They only want a leader that actively pushes back against this force of hivemind thought

It doesn't matter whether you speak truth or fiction as long as you stay inside the very narrow bubble of progressive orthodoxy.

Pepe is NOT a political meme. The killer has been confirmed left wing by the Utah Governor and is living with his trans partner. Closet groyper is at best a 0.1% possibility based on the information that's been released so far

I want the Charlie Kirk killer found and prosecuted quickly so we can all go back to talking about this

Israel's approach to Gaza has 8% support amongst democrats. All time low levels of support. Outside on an election year it is untenable for a democratic President to be so far out of step of their base

At least the politicians actually bothered to try and sell the spin in 2003. In 2025 they offer nothing and leave it for the media to invent the spin for them.

The problem is if you don't fit 100% into the little blue bubble you end up giving up and leaving.

It sucks that this is true. But bluesky was built in a world where cancel culture was an imaginary demon of the right rather than a social movement that genuinely did go too far and cost democrats significantly in voter backlash.

The question is what the median voters think and I suspect the answer is despite Trump's huge flaws he's delivering on many of the areas they elected him for

Radically Candid @maxi8.bsky.social · 04/06/2025
And yet the voters decided this was the bigger concern

Bluesky has an unfortunately worsening reputation for intolerance.

He voted against this trend. It was a very bad situation and it's not unreasonable that many people were concerned about it.

I'd love to know the size difference between Twitter and @bsky.app in terms of real, good faith human users. I think the gap is much smaller than any data based metric would suggest because real human interactions on X are now a rarity.

Seeing the below I think AUS should be cancelling any money flowing towards US technology. They just cannot rely on the US to be 100% an ally rather than one that would be content with the "big guys" conquering the earth.

Something that hasn't been talked about enough in this is that Vance triggered Trump. It's bad that he knows how to do this and will be doing it for 4 years for a whole bunch of terrible purposes.

Are you sure you don't just hate the PR of it? Zelensky floated this idea in September under the Biden administration.

Radically Candid @maxi8.bsky.social · 22/02/2025
This entire story arc is "the way the world works and has always worked" being packaged into a dramatic "art of the deal" narrative that gives Trump a plausible reason to NOT capitulate to Putin on Ukraine. You should decide if that's good or bad and act accordingly.

Radically Candid @maxi8.bsky.social · 22/02/2025
Zelensky reached out with this proposal last year. Ask yourself if you're only against it because you're looking at it through the lens of association with Trump

If it becomes a thing for Presidents to rename landmarks just to troll, can I propose the next Democratic President rename this iconic American landmark the "Russian-Pornstars-Onto-Trump Falls"?

This genuinely sucks. The inability of many people today to see the good in the status quo is a problem.

How fucking helpful is it to have the commander in chief making these kind of real time contributions to the discourse ?

An interesting perspective on Trump from Australia. It seems he has more supporters here than he did in 2016 and its people happy to see pushback against woke aspects. Lesson to progressives. People need to be convinced of things not just scared into silence. You need to win the contest of ideas.

Another great thing is the way you can passive aggressively block someone and add them to a block list, and then they can learn of the list through clearsky.app

Do you disagree with the below? It's extremely poor form to setup your Cabana in the beach and then go back to your beach house to rock up at the beach 4 hours later?

The decision to mandate the covid vaccine will end up costing public health a lot more than it ever gained. Tragic.

To be fair, this is just a more honest version of where the Republican establishment have stood for 4 decades. Screwing the red state voters and doing what the top 0.1% want. They believe that is what's best for America.

This situation with Trump and Loomer is ugly. Elon was obviously faking the MAGA turn, where Loomer was more intellectually honest in her nuttiness. Who to hate more...?

Hi, I see you are starting our interaction at the bottom of the hierarchy of disagreement. This is not a good sign.

Just went down a Wikipedia rabbit hole and had my mind blown realising that one Swedish songwriter (Max Martin) has written basically every song that my kids listen to, and is the second most successful songwriter in history 🤯

I felt like I was in a minority on Bluesky opposing the killing of a generic 100% replaceable normie healthcare CEO. Good to know I'm in the 84% majority who are sane.

Marisa, what is your definition of transphobic in the context of the below data? I.e. is someone who says "we should protect transgender people from discrimination" but also opposed having trans athletes participate in female sport transphobic?

Radically Candid @maxi8.bsky.social · 14/12/2024
Can we define transphobic then work with some data to discern what percentage of the country qualify?

I'm not on your side in this discussion, but I do think actual discussion on this issue is merited, and lack of it is a critical reason why this cause does not have majority popular support. However you seem to always be being refuted with name-calling rather than substantive discussion.
