one of my favorite descriptions of antisemitism is "socialism for fools" for a reason - both have a similar framework, if you squint, because both talk around and about real problems it's just leftists, like, understand the world is complicated and how it works, and antisemites go, "THE JEWWWWS!"

Blablablaaa… hehe, I scare you!

I started my career reporting on tech and human rights in a dictatorship (Cambodia), and was at RightsCon earlier this year. If there’s anything I’ve learned, it’s that the rest of the world has a LOT to teach Americans about using tech to survive and fight back under authoritarian regimes.

1-866-952-4456 to tell Netflix that in no way do you want Elon fucking Musk determining what you watch. I just called, got through in about 15 seconds, and told them that I strongly support queer inclusion in their programming and that I will cancel my subscription if they cave.

TIME STRANGER RELEASES TODAY!! 💛🖤✨. ya know who is gonna be on the preorder right 🥰👇. #Digimon #DigimonTimeStranger

You absolutely should not dismiss the AT Protocol technology that runs this place as boring nerd stuff, because that is the exact technology we are going to need to ensure that usable social media that isn’t controlled by Nazis continues to exist.

Uppies! #wuff

it’s really good when “technology of the future” treats you leaving as if you were leaving a cult

Today, on the anniversary of Cohost's demise, BlueSky leadership reminds me just how badly I missed having a website that wasn't operated by vampiric weirdos.

the CEO of this site is trolling us because we asked for a transphobe -- someone who has done real harm to us -- to be removed from her platform. this sends a message to bad actors: not only will bluesky shield you, leadership will laugh about it. @jay.bsky.team needs to go. this is unsafe shit.

Weretober day 2 for @ricricochet.bsky.social

Remember when Bluesky changed the TOS to accommodate Jesse Singal? Now the CTO is retroactively claiming that he didn’t violate the TOS

People really need to start focusing on the fact that every single last instance of far-right outrage online is a handful of annoying people being boosted by millions of bots. Their beliefs and positions are not popular and never have been.

And this is why we should be as vehemently against shit like ChatGPT as possible. A genuinely sad article, about a genuinely sad circumstance. I highly recommend you give it a read.

You're still not on the list...

This kind of thought is what will absolutely kill a venture from the inside. Moderation is not simply "do as the rules say" (leaving aside that Bluesky *changed the rules* for Singal), but it is "create a safe and welcoming environment within the spirit of the rules." Disallow rules lawyering.

This is so indefensibly insane: Speaker Johnson is refusing to seat Congresswoman-elect Adelita Grijalva because she'll be the 218th vote to release the Epstein files. Johnson swore in Rep Walkinshaw (VA) w/in 24 hours. Johnson is abandoning his job to instead protect a convicted child sex predator

Me at work rn:

Honestly, it sounds like the kind of very traditional machine-learning methods we’ve been using to do things like face and voice recognition for decades. One of many technologies that we’re retroactively labeling as “AI” to cash in on the buzz.

Machine learning is a neat tool, but clearly companies are desperate to give “AI” credit for what human scholars accomplish in part because companies have bet the farm on the idea that human ingenuity is expendable. This historian is extraordinary and deserves the real credit.

Also just would like to point out - they has been a pronoun since Viking times and its first recorded use was for a werewolf! They isn't even woke, it's just a natural part of English and they are being 'snowflakes' as THEY would put it.

What gets me is how the suite at BlueSky do not seem to understand that BlueSky became what it is today specifically because of an inverse reaction to Elon Musk making Twitter go full Nazi. You’d think that, as smart business people, they’d lean into that a little more.

The most frustrating thing about discussion of #Wikipedia is how uninformed it always is about how Wikipedia works. All the lengthy and open debates about these sources are catalogued at en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WP:RSP and anyone can read them. There's no secrets. Who tf is Mr. X even supposed to be?

Every accusation is a confession

your core users are people who have already demonstrated a willingness to abandon a more popular social media site for another, in the most part for disliking the politics of the people who run it. write this on a big whiteboard somewhere in the office

I wish all parents understood and accepted that their adult children attending college have explicit rights to privacy

American Christians deciding the Pope doesn't know the Bible because he said immigrants are human is the perfect summary of the evangelist movement

Once again: Hegseth is the exact type of guy The Art of War was written for, which means he will never read it

Its so funny how one moderation decision has been so horrendously bad for them that its causing them to break kayfabe like this. They've sunk their entire site over protecting one guy from their own rules. Anyway go rate the app a 1 on the app store, I just did!

We tried to warn people that a lot of the Harper's letter signers were wildly, obviously hypocritical on the subject of free speech, and the response was "who cares? They'r3 still right about the fucking commies"
