Social network Bluesky, an alternative to X built on open source technologies, has scored a big win in terms of attracting notable users to its platform.
Ah yes, notable for codifying and expanding Bush’s drone war and then… somehow getting a Peace Prize for that?
Also, we can literally blame the rise and prominence of Tom Homan on Obama. So should be still really be cheering for Obama at all, ever?
Can we fuck off with this pretending that these fucks didn’t enable the situation we’re now literally in? How could we expect our government to go after Trumps crimes when Obama said “we need to look forward, not backward” in respect to going after war crimes?
Further, can we stop pretending that one corporate social media is better than another corporate social media. Jay Graber talks good game, but so did Zuckerberg, Musk, and Dorsey before they got their billions. You’re just building another billionaire who will turn on you.
Reminder, Bluesky owes literally millions to Blockchain Capital, a venture capital firm. They will have to pay that money back somehow. The enshittification will happen. And I’m sick of the weak loser excuse “We will just move to another shitty corporation with another shitty corporate social media service when this one doesn’t work out.” Cool, and you’ll mint more billionaires each time, you jabronis.
That’s half the reason people use it.
That half the reason is only for weird celebrity worshipping jackasses.
Jesus fucking Christ. I saw what was coming and even though she was far from my choice, I did what I thought mattered more than how I personally felt. Get over yourself, dude. I can look at things and have an opinion and still choose to go with what matters when literal Nazis are on the other side of the equation. Like I said, it’s literally not my fault that more than half the country was too fucking dumb to clock that because they’d been fed the same bullshit for decades.
Did you forget we’re talking about a fucking twitter replacement, not the fucking election?
Obama doesn’t have a yacht, he visited David Geffen’s yacht and the Maga media had a field day claiming Obama’s got a yacht. And don’t get me wrong, the ideal president would stay far away from all oligarchs and their yachts. But let’s not pretend Obama’s lack of enthusiasm for upending the status quo and Trump/Musk/Thiel’s wholehearted attempt to replace democracy with corporate feudalism are at all comparable.

This is something that I wish we could drill into people’s thick skulls.
Bro where the fuck you think Obama’s been the past few months? The only time he’s been seen during the fourth reich takeover of Post-Fall America was gladhanding and yucking it up side-by-side with trump at Carter’s funeral. Obama is AWOL and his absence is noticeably loud.
you mean someone on his yacht started a bs profile.

Practicality beats purity.
The practical choices we’ve made have all be war criminals
Pardon?
How does this nonsensical comment currently have 5 points? Who upvotes this? Or are they just bots and/or sockpuppets?
It’s funny how comments like this almost always have a handful of points, regardless of what they say. They don’t even need to make sense.
