Verrry interrresting. Of course I do know about bots and fake accounts, but did not know Meta was treating it as an unsolvable problem. They will cause as much damage as bloody Fox that way, alas. Cheers.

I'm sure. I saw Fox once when I was in the US and still have PTSD from it (no kidding). Between Murdoch and Putin, SCARY NUMBERS of people believe crazy sh**!! Those liars are so determined! And we who grew up with good manners never learned how to fight back. 😥

Just now I was elated, seeing a Fb-vid of people holding up signs saying these things (and more), along a long road. So it was beyond shocking to see that most commenters said "sounds like the left"!! 😳 - Not so elated now. (It's on the 'US Dem Socialists' page.)

Wah. Someone said, "it's not about the other person, it's about how we feel about ourselves when we're with the other person". 🍀

Sometimes we need a moment, but if you tune out completely, they win. Fascism doesn’t need your support, just your silence.

Oh! To me this means (since Projection is the Repub way), THEY pay people for posts, so assume "libs' do too. Hm, never thought of that before.

mailevera.bsky.social @mailevera.bsky.social · 12d

Oh yeah, didn't mean those gross acts of war - meant everything since then. But you got it.

mailevera.bsky.social @mailevera.bsky.social · 13d

Oke, jouw prioriteiten zijn duidelijk. Zou je niet meer thuis voelen tussen de MAGAs op X?

Most things 'they' are doing are outrageous, but taking ANY of people's Soc.Security away would be way, way, way BEYOND outrageous. 🍀

She lies so fluently! Almost have to admire her (while loathing every mendacious word she says).

This totally unfounded paranoia... could it be fear, from a repressed guilty conscience?
