Bluesky is a "liberal bubble" because fascist chuds can't get traction without algorithmic assistance and because people here trained themselves to block "debate me" trybois the instant they roll up
The Verge@theverge.com · 2d agoBluesky's new CEO Toni Schneider on the platform's reputation for being a liberal bubble: "Yes, we definitely want that to change. It is already changing. It certainly wasn’t designed to attract one specific group of people."
Demanding to examine a child's genitals for them to play sports is fucking insane
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
“This case serves as a warning to anyone seeking to record a conversation without the other person's permission that doing so is illegal and has been a crime in the state of California for over 50 years.” THEN HOW THE FUCK IS FLOCK A THING HERE? apple.news/ANHPEbBHASNC...

Leftists support migrants because they believe a human being's worth should not be dependent on where they were born. Some people who consider themselves part of "the left" are actually just reactionary nationalists of the subaltern class, who would instantly be on the right if their side ever won.
I wish someone had told me when I was younger that adults don’t actually have their shit together and everyone is still just a kid who’s faking it.

the thing about having actual principles is that when a politician I respect does some stupid shit I can just be like, “that sucks, knock it off” instead of inventing an imaginary world where I’m forced to defend stupid shit for procedural 4d chess reasons
aipac's approach to el-sayed vs. platner is really telling. much, much more energy for fighting el-sayed, the guy who did not have a nazi tattoo. but who is muslim.

CNN@cnn.com · last wk.House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D) is not committing to holding votes on the progressive policy issues, such as abolishing ICE if Democrats wins back the majority this fall.
"Coastal elites" as a stand-in for evil academia/fake news media/rootless cosmopolitans/urban crime, doing the "you think you're better than me??" politics that only ever turn the ratchet rightward, backed by the grinning brainiac who gave us two-term president Joe Biden. Super duper stuff
Howard Mortman@howardmortman.bsky.social · 2w ago"Cool kids on the Internet. They're doing the cool kid chatter. Some of 'em might be the coastal elites, making fun of how I talk. But let's be real. They're making fun of Michigan. They're thinking they're better than us. Their jokes, their criticism, only make me fight harder." -- Haley Stevens
The entire Democratic establishment and its corporate donors are rallying at the last second, along with $40+ million from AIPAC, to push Stevens over the edge. Tells you they're terrified of what Abdul represents. Hope Michiganders can see through it.
interesting to me that as the administration treats democratic-voting states like conquered or occupied territories, you don’t have pundits demanding the president respect “half the country”
tony romm@tonyromm.bsky.social · 2w agoNEW: In a stunning admission, the Trump administration admitted in court documents that it canceled billions in energy grants to states "based solely" on politics -- and whether that state was represented by Democrats and backed Harris in 2024. www.nytimes.com/2026/07/24/b...

The Bulwark@thebulwark.com · 2w agoThe vibes may be exciting, but if Democrats are going to win this year and in 2028, they must reject the DSA. If you’re tempted by a democratic socialist this year, think of what use Republicans will make of these victories, and ask whether you want to do favors for fascists.
rewatching the movie “Bulworth” and my god this movie is incredible, and I’ve never been a prequel/sequel/or reboot guy but if I may, @bootsriley.bsky.social would absolutely kill a reboot of this movie
Reporter: Isn’t there concern that this slippery slope to socialism inevitably ends up as full-blown communism? AOC: They want to call everything they don’t like communist because if people actually wake up to the fact that their elected officials are screwing them over when they get here
f u c k anyone and everyone responsible for this garbage propaganda piece attempting to normalize what this evil white supremacist is directly responsible for, the first thing he did was go after the govt agency that helped end apartheid where elmo grew up in south africa

In the Infinity War trailer, you had Thanos, who had been looming large for years, explain his motivations, his point of view. We had seen the world in which he was created. In Doomsday, you hear second hand how scared Thor is, but unless you saw Fan4, you have no idea who Dr. Doom is.
the mental gymnastics of “never trumpers” or “former republicans” to avoid acknowledging the reality they helped create is truly astounding
Tara@tatabug.bsky.social · 2w agoThe thing that no one on the left seems to grasp about former Republicans/Never Trumpers is that all we really care about is beating Republicans. We would absolutely vote for DSA candidates if the choice is a Republican. The only reason we care about DSA is when it keeps a Democrat from winning.
