A few months ago I posted that it looks like AIPAC is now poison inside the Democratic party. We’ll see what the polling says in a few days but this could be evidence of that. Even if it’s only a 5% effect or whatever, that will be enough to take out a lot of candidates.

I keep thinking about this comment because the opposite seems true as well. Like anything algorithmic turns right-wing and racist, like that one AI that basically turned nazi on its own or YouTube quickly suggesting darker and darker shit, regardless of where you started. Something that needs study…
Benny Six-Cats@teeveeben.bsky.social · 2d agoActually, I think designing a protocol that is open-source and not algorithmically choked is in fact designing something for liberals, progressives, and leftists because conservatism intrinsically does not want that.

A lot of understandable negative response to this, but for the whole interview Schneider is always answering from the ATProto perspective. He's not really saying he wants MAGAs to use this social network bluesky dot app, he's saying he wants anyone to use ATProto to build their own.

i think the only really legitimate policy debate in america is between the far left and center left. i do not recognize conservative policy as a legit alternative.
Since people are acting like this is already happening, I can tell you this has a lot more to do with Washington’s stupid initiative process (way too easy to get on the ballot) than anything else. It won’t become law but is probably being put on the ballot to drive up turnout in conservative areas.
Gillian Branstetter@gbbranstetter.bsky.social · 2d agoAn initiative on the ballot in Washington state in November would require all athletes seeking to play girl's sports from kindergarten to high school to undergo "genetic screening, a testosterone-levels test, or an examination of their reproductive anatomy" before they can play
Look, you guys can act surprised about this but if there was a Republican who had an ounce of decency, they’d have switched parties and publicly supported impeachment already.

Sen. Paul is one of the worst human beings on the planet. Acutely aware of what’s going on and does nothing while pretending to care.

Even if an angry mob of Russians throws Putin out a Kremlin window he will never stop laughing about how much he owned and wrecked America through Trump. It's a foreign policy skulduggery triumph that would make every Soviet leader doff their caps to Putin in humble respect and admiration.

Politico@politico.com · 2d agoMichigan will provide another crucial test of whether progressives can not only keep up their winning streak in safe-blue seats but also break through in battlegrounds crucial for control of Congress. The stakes for the Democratic Party are huge.
About the only interesting thing about this to me is that they’re both insane narcissists, which makes her wildly unpredictable. Could be fun if she starts thrashing around.

Nicholas [redacted]@borninawar.bsky.social · 2d agoIn politics I’m seeing people try to appeal to their fans by talking tough or whatever. That’s not going to work. But will work is to humiliate the influencers. As seen in the show, it’s what they’re most terrified of. They really do not want to be shown as frauds.

If we can't get the GOP to release the Epstein files, or admit their Senator has died, or prohibit the Trump family from raiding our Treasury, or present the ICE murderers for trial, they aren't going to recognize election losses.
I bet Jeanine Pirro was eager to drop the case before the judge asked to see grand jury transcripts, which would probably contain evidence to disbar her.
