Anyone know what these fake links at the end of some posts are?

President of MIT not mincing words today in @statnews.com www.statnews.com/2026/05/27/s...

Again, please share. In every aspect of American history you will run smack dab into the critical contributions of Black people. It’s not Black history. It’s American history. Trying to erase it is a fool’s errand. We live it every day. time.com/5836444/blac...

My autopsy; -Republicans make a mess. -Democrats get elected to clean up the mess. -Reps blame Dems for not cleaning up the mess fast enough -Media blame Dems for not cleaning up the mess fast enough -Dems blame Dems for not cleaning up the mess fast enough - Voters vote for Republicans Repeat

Joan Mulholland stood up for change ✊ This is a great story to hear right now. This matters.

Why so few media outlets in America not talking about how Iran is paying China in yuan? Other countries are starting to talk about the petroyuan over the petrodollar. share.google/OhNSS3qxO1TK...

MAJOR BREAKING: Judge Chris Taylor, the Democratic-backed candidate, has won election to the Wisconsin Supreme Court. The result expands the court’s liberal majority to 5–2, extending its current ideological balance for years to come.

TACO Tuesday!

Re; Chiles v Salazar Sotomayor & Kagan’s reasoning centered on the belief that the law violated the First Amendment by engaging in viewpoint discrimination, as it prohibited counseling aimed at changing sexual orientation. What if they start a religious conversion therapy and then ban it?

Attorney General Phil Weiser released the following statement regarding the Supreme Court's decision in the Chiles v. Salazar conversion therapy case: https://bit.ly/4m1gTZL

Use your influence…

@juniorhoncho.bsky.social What democratic leaders and electeds say it was good and smart to do extrajudicial killings? And why is your reply box grayed out?

Why are some posters comment boxes grayed out so that you cannot reply to them?

Can anyone explain this to me because I feel like I’m living in a parallel universe. This is apparently from a New York Times space and I’m asking only about the highlighted section: How can anyone look at these two parties and come to this conclusion?

Why are so many reply boxes greyed out? What’s the point of one way conversation?

I just muted @jushinsuave.bsky.social, because he apparently doesn’t allow replies from anyone whom he doesn’t follow or who follows him. That is like being talked at and not being allowed to talk back. Why should I waste my time with someone who cannot tolerate disagreement or debate?

@jushinsuave.bsky.social I hate to mute people but when they don’t allow replies, I don’t need to waste my time with their comments.

I just muted @oldmantex.bsky.social , Because apparently she does not allow replies to her posts. They are greyed out. That makes me suspect it’s either a troll or a bot.

Why are comments for some posters greyed out, even when it doesn’t say comments are limited?

I can not comment on this post or any of the other comments, (greyed out). I just would like to ask where are Epstein‘s legs in this photo?

Can anyone explain how Trump can stop the ICC from using Google and Amazon and Gmail, etc.? Are all these companies cooperating with him?

I’m waiting for Trump to order DOJ to track down and prosecute. Every kid who he feels was mean to him in the schoolyard.

Great duet!!! m.youtube.com/watch?v=TN_1...

I wonder if anyone remembers this skit from 2007: m.youtube.com/watch?v=xcjL...

Good. It wasn't going to say, 'we were overwhelmed by a flood of disinformation that we had no capacity to counter and it was the culmination of our donors not investing strategically in media for the past 40 yrs.' I don't wanna hear whatever BS they'd say about Biden or pronouns or girls sports.

Justice Jackson to Solicitor General Sauer (just now, in Trump v. Slaughter arguments):

Is anyone else following this; BBC From Byline Times UK: “Bias’ Memo Was Authored by Lobbyist Tied to Pro-Trump Tech Giants”

Anyone following the the right wing lobbying group, Oracle, who hired the hit on BBC.

Will everyone stop whining????

Who I blame for where we are: -Republicans -Voters -Media -Pundits who praise Reps and bash Dems -Democratic pundits who whine about Dems. Whiny Democrats is the only thing that makes me feel like I shouldn’t even bother voting.

Just saw this on Mediaite: Why don’t all of these people on the Democratic side just shut up about their opinions, (then or opinions they developed once we lost the election?) Democrats bashing Democrats is the only thing that has ever made me not want to vote.

@jamellebouie.net I love Jamelle Bouie, but when I read a post and see that those who can reply are limited, I feel foolish even having read it, since I am not allowed to talk back. Why not limit those who can see the post to those who can reply?

Just saw this on Mediaite: “CNN’s Van Jones Applauds As Bill Maher Trashes Kamala Harris For 2 Solid Minutes” I really think the greatest allies that Republicans have and the greatest enemies that Democrats have are the so-called Democratic pundits who do nothing but whine about Democrats . 1/

Anyone know what’s it’s going on with this Ipsos Reuters poll that says that Trump is crushing on the economy and immigration ??

Why are we still talking about Charlie Kirk?

Is the RNC the assignment editor for CNN? “Kirk embodied the GOP’s newfound populist conservatism in the social media age” I think the “GOP’s newfound populist conservatism” started with Truman integrating the military followed by Brown v Board.

Saw this on Mediaite: Democrats Face ‘Existential Threat’ By Ignoring New Media, Progressive YouTuber David Pakman Says My problem: people who listen to him are likely to vote for Democrats. People who are unlikely to vote for Democrats listen to Rogan. 1/

If people on social media limit who they allow to reply to them, then perhaps their post should be limited to only those who may reply?

Everyone hear THIS hogwash? Chuck Todd Says Biden’s Presidency Looked So ‘Weak and Ineffective’ He Drove People Back Into Trump’s Arms”

I find the most annoying thing on social media is when you see a post that you really feel the need to comment on only to see the comments are limited and you cannot comment. I think if you cannot comment on a post, it should not be visible to you.

From Pittsburgh:

seems like a turning point

Does anyone else feel that if a poster limits who can reply to their post, those who can see their post should be limited to those who can reply? It’s like yelling at someone when they are not allowed to talk back.

I just saw; Speaker Johnson Dodges On Trump Wanting Newsom Arrested. I'm sorry, but between that, their about face on 1/6, McConnell telling the Sen Reps that 'he was responsible for 1/6, but he's gone now, so they should vote to acquit ... and they call DEMOCRATS weak and feckless???? Come on.

President Donald Trump spread a bonkers conspiracy theory on social media that former President Joe Biden was killed in 2020 and replaced by clones. But we have to talk endless talk about Biden's mental health??

Lindsey is just a big baby, so there’s that as well.

NEW -- Yes, there absolutely was media malfeasance in our coverage of the 2024 presidential campaign. No, it wasn't about Joe Biden being old. It was about how we normalized the hell out of a man who had already tried to end American democracy once. www.huffpost.com/entry/trump-...
