Bluesky is an echo chamber because disagreements don't devolve into doxxing and threats of physical violence filled with hateful slurs
except sometimes, as Barry and I just learned, painfully
gdi I'm doing it wrong
Not my limited experience here
How dare we advocate for a place where women and minorities aren't constantly posting under fear of death threats and sexual harassment. God, we're such heartless bastards.
Totally. I left Twitter/X b/c I was sick of getting doxxed & harassed by Hindu nationalists & their white supremacist, Islamophobic allies. X is a support group for all kinds of supremacists, incels, trolls, & fascists. If that’s the digital public square on which I’m missing out, I’m ok being here.
Maybe it’s the echoes we heard along the way.
bsky is an echo chamber because when you post something bigoted there's not an army of blue checkmarks going "masterful gambit, sir", instead people block and at most laugh at you that's a problem you see, bigots are a protected class
Apparently that's the sort of interaction that Jemima Kelly can't do without... kthxbye
I have a preference for discussing policy than trying to speak to brainwashed MAGAts.
