Not to be reductive, but a lot of the discourse about the discourse on Bluesky can be explained by neurodivergent justice sensitivity. neurodivergentinsights.com/glossary/jus...

Justice sensitivity | Neurodivergent Insights

Dr Neff explains 'Justice sensitivity'. A heightened response to unfairness or harm. It sometimes correlates with autism and ADHD.

Spent a few minutes donating $5-20 to all Dem Senate candidates (and 1 Independent) not marked "Safe" R or D on fiftyplusone.news/forecast/. I give most to Toss Ups, and progressively less to Lean and Likely races on both sides. Probably not an optimal strategy but I'll do nothing if I overthink it.

Dems should seriously run on things that already exist -- but don't currently function -- as if they are new ideas. "If elected, I will use the power of the government to track infectious and food-borne illnesses and prevent their spread!"

Next president should sanction the countries that collaborated with Trump like this. There has to be a cost or it will happen again.

Tech billionaires seem to have mapped some societal trends out to their most dystopian conclusion and, rather than asking how to avoid that outcome, asked "How do we accelerate this so that we can position ourselves to be the biggest beneficiaries?"

Apart from the safety issues, this stuck out: "The cost of making bigger vehicles is usually not much higher than it is for cars ... Yet ... The average sticker price for a full-size pickup is double that of a sedan." If there's not a supply bottleneck, doesn't that indicate monopoly or collusion?

"Political sentiment." So it's not that the economy is bad, is just that everyone hates Trump, including millions of his own voters. You sure that's the line you wanna go with, Kevin?

Honestly, we could post these daily; MAGA has a taste for the same things their orange messiah wants. No wonder they rush to defend so many pedophiles in their ranks. ~AdminMatt

I can only hope that Trump is invoking the spectre of nuclear holocaust so that when he "only" destroys infrastructure, condemning millions to a slower death, it doesn't seem so bad... And that's a dismal fucking thing to hope for.

Free messaging for any Democrat running against a Republican incumbent this year: "Gas would still be $3/gallon if [my opponent] had the courage to stand up to trump." Replace [my opponent] with more colorful language for greater impact.

I had a friend in high school whose mom argued with the school that he shouldn't have to pass a required math class because he would go into construction, like his dad. I suspect this is similar. Kids whose parents don't value education get the message that passing without learning is acceptable.

Google needs a "fewest turns" option for directions. Stop telling me to exit the highway and wend my way through some small town just to get back on the same highway a mile or two later to avoid a minor slowdown. I don't believe it saved any time and it wasn't worth the aggravation if it did.

It feels like the part of the movie where the villain gives a speech openly admitting to their plot because they're so confident they've already won. This is not a doomer post.

My wife and I were arguing over whether that was Lady Gaga in the halftime show. She was right. I didn't believe it because I expected Bad Bunny to use only Latin artists. In retrospect, her ... non-Latin dancing should have given it away.

Decades of Republican complaints of government waste, to now be accused of "spending taxpayer money needlessly," crystalizes that it's only waste to them if if it helps someone who needs it. There's always money for hurting people, or to further enrich the already wealthy.

That the 2nd amendment anti-tyranny types are all rushing to join the tyranny should forever change the gun control conversation in the U.S. for the simple reason that we don't have to take their arguments seriously anymore.

Welker's attitude is the same one that lets school bullies be bullies because it's expected, then punishes victims when they fight back because it's shocking.

Just say the word: Corruption I'm skeptical that innuendo was ever an effective messaging strategy for anyone not already on your side, but it's definitely not now, when the message is a drop in a fire hose of competing messages delivered through a hostile platform.

Capping the house of representatives at 435 seats heavily favors rural states. The VRA is a big reason why we're not already a one-party state. Democrats must prioritize lifting the cap as part of their plan to restore democracy if they're ever back in power.

The poster is obviously AI generated, but that doesn't mean it's fake and, if it is a joke, I'm not sure who it's on or who's in on it. Our entire political discourse is just trolls trolling trolls. "Guest appearance by measles" is a nice touch, though.
