Someone just replied to me by saying that anyone saying not to vote should be ignored because they "aren't american". Even if none of them were american, that would still be a foolish argument, but didn't a third of america not vote in the 2024 US election?

"Only Americans should talk about the genocide in Palestine" is fundamentally the same as saying "Only white people should talk about the Klu Klux Klan".

liberals who think the left are uniquely hostile online should do a test post, say you think it was bad that obama killed so many people with drone strikes, something like that. if you think the left are mean, you aren't ready for the wrath of the scratched liberal

Donate at least $10 to Ali Low's family to help them Donate at least $10 to Ali Lo's family so they can survive in the Gaza Strip after their home was destroyed. chuffed.org/project/help...

This defamatory creep just called me a "racist pedophile lover" for saying not to vote for democrat politicians. Link: bsky.app/profile/grey...

True!! More People need to stop voting entirely or at the fucking minimum just don't vote for the Democrats/Republicans but I can't stress this enough, not voting at all is better!

I don't argue with liberals on BlueSky about Palestine or the democrats anymore. I just block them. Anyone who needs to hear any argument I could possibly make is someone who is unlikely to be reached.

If you only express "support" for Palestine to scold people for not voting democrat, you don't support Palestine.

Even if you see no downside, there probably is a downside, even from a consequentialist perspective. That's even before you consider that by allowing yourself to support the democrats in any way at all, you are making it more likely that you eventually become like the pro-Platner "leftists".

Do NOT vote for a democrat politician under any circumstances.

I once saw a BE stan say that BE should be above criticism because he was right about Zohran Mamdani. By that logic, @stopgenai.com and I should be above criticism too, as we were also right about Mamdani.

Kamala Harris knew that supporting genocide would cost her necessary votes in key areas. Harris is the one that decided a Trump presidency was better than stopping support for a genocide. Liberals blame civilians day after day as if civilians have any actual power. They don't. Harris did, though.

@stopgenai.com Heads up. BE posted a screenshot of your post criticising him for his gamergate post. He also tagged you and made fun of you. Just letting you know.

In Diddy Kong Racing DS, the message when connection is lost during Download Play is "LOST ALL CHILDREN". The cartridge is internally called a "parent" and the downloaded instances its "children". While this would make sense to the developers, it has the potential to confuse or scare players.

The enemy is both deviously cunning yet also too stupid to understand their own actions, man, where have I heard that before. ...Look, I know I'm reaching here, but I am hella frustrated with the cognitive dissonance we comfortably accept these days. While loudly deriding everyone else for it.

What's truly fascinating is how we continue clinging to the "Oh my god why do they not understand this?!"-bullshit despite us also screaming "Controlled opposition!" at centrists for years. Like, maybe it's *us* who don't understand, we can't even get our own beliefs sorted out.

Yup, straight-up asking kids for nudes in exchange for approval is literal groomer shit

I'll also report it as "illegal and urgent", but I doubt BlueSky would do anything tbh.

If I ever see a transmed knowingly demand a minor send them a pic of their genitals, I'm going to screenshot the transmed's post before they can delete it, and I'm going to call them a groomer.

I didn't share the screenshot but I kept it, just cause... fuck. It feels unreal. I didn't realize how bad it had gotten since I blocked all these people, then I find a new med I hadn't kicked out yet telling another trans person to "post hog and face or gtfo" like some kind of fucking GamerGater

Jimmy Fallon: "And do you use ChatGPT when raising your baby?" Sam Altman: "I cannot imagine figuring out how to raise a newborn without ChatGPT."

When someone says "Our genocide killed fewer people than their genocide," ask them to step back and read some history. The killing isn't linear. It doesn't peter out and stop. It continues through ceasefires. The only ethical approach is to stop genocide, not manage it for political points.

Dude saying this with a straight face when his graph shows that more people died in Gaza from 2023 to January 2025 than since then. Now remind me, who was president from 2023 to 2025 again?

(Kris pronoun discourse) Oh, you "even" respect us? Well, that's very big of you. /s So, if a character's fictional, that's enough to justify misgendering them? Do we get to call them slurs too?

one annoying thing here is that in the series of shots showing the man being thrown out of the window into the snow, his clothes change. can the AI prompt programs really not handle "make that one again, but put the man in the same clothes as this other one"?

Just scrolled through r/libertarianmeme. Just straight up pure racism and transphobia. Also, one of the posters I saw in my minute or so of scrolling was a monarchist.

This article was written in 2019. 2019 folks. Caity used Venezuela as her model. It's like she had a crystal ball or something. caitlinjohnstone.com/2019/02/25/i...

Four months on, and this is still my favorite post on BlueSky. I swear there was also a reply with a gif of an emotional audience clapping, but it's gone now. That was my second fave post.

"People with DID often have a rich inner world" *lifts pickaxe* so you're saying there's gold in them there heads

all the fake AI trash really contradicts one of the main ways we're told capitalism operates, with capitalists identifying wants/needs & developing products & services to meet those. turns out you can skip that step & just pretend. nigh everyone hates AI and it makes no money but it's everywhere

If you read ContraPoints' statement on Israel and still support her, you are a zionist.

common trans advice is "follow the euphoria, don't just avoid the dysphoria" and the longer i live the more true i realize that is. "Being a woman doesn't feel that bad, I can live with it" yeah sure you can, you can survive a lot of different ways. But being a weird little they makes you happier!

LMAO Luigi is going to get off scot-free. He really is.

Lib-left vs auth-left discourse according to western "leftists": "Libertarianism is when you do genocide, imperialism, politician worship and hegemony. Authoritarianism is when you're against genocide, imperialism, politician worship and hegemony."

There's a good chance this person is trolling, but who can say.

You're against AI? Have you considered that Super Mario Bros has turtles which walk in a straight line? I am very smart. /s

Just to clarify, obviously Trump increases bigotry, and you'd have to be a fool not to believe that. What I meant is that bigotry as a whole didn't originate from Trump. Bigotry predates Trump and is a big part of how Trump could ever come into power in the first place.

Careful. You'll be called a liberal wokescold by western "leftists" who love the democrat party. Seriously though, calling the bad guys slurs is inherently liberal, as it places attacking the individual ahead of tackling the hierarchies that give such individuals power in the first place.

don't use that word

if you call the bad guys the slur, you're only legitimizing their dehumanizing language and reinforcing their assertion that the people commonly refered to by that slur are subhuman and therefore subject to enslavement/extermination. you're welcome. now stop being an asshole.

Santa Claus is writing his shopping list. What do you wish for this Christmas?

"Anarchism is only against *unjustified* hierarchies" would be like saying "communism is only against unjustified class" or "pacifism is only against unjustified violence". The label is meaningless at that point, and the person is clearly only clinging on to the label for the aesthetic.

R/tankiejerk be like:

@mommunism.bsky.social Molly, please, share this for me. I’m going through a very difficult time, please… I truly need your support.

The entire concept of "justified hierarchies" within anarchist circles is very similar to anarcho capitalist rhetoric. That it's not about having no people in power, but about having the right people in power. That the problem with our society isn't the hierarchy, but that it isn't a meritocracy.

Okay, I'm going to complain about some fake anarchism I saw on Reddit, but sometimes links to comments don't work and link to the original post instead. So just to clarify: I don't hold any opinion on the post, since I have no idea if what is said is true.
