If you're trying to convince your friends to spend time on Bluesky rather than X, maybe show them this. X is not "the public town square" or about "free speech." It's "just what Elon Musk wants you to see." If you see stuff he doesn't like he'll step in to make sure you don't see it for long.
If you scroll on X, you are only being shown what Elon wants you to see. If you create content on X, no one will see it unless Elon wants them to.

Medicare for All would save $450B a year.
Every dollar spent on food stamps generates $1.50-$1.80 in economic activity.
Each dollar going to low-wage workers adds $1.20 to the economy overall.
It’s not about what this country can or can’t afford.

I want to take a moment to thank the entire Elias Law Group team who worked on the Texas redistricting case as well as our fearless clients. The thirteen Black and Latino voters we represented stood up to challenge Texas's unprecedented mid-decade redistricting. We all ow them a debt of gratitude.

Universities never indoctrinated anyone. It’s simply that right wing views don’t survive critical thought or serious scrutiny.
And it’s really easy to call everything a conspiracy when you don’t know how stuff works.

To reduce Nazism to 'war and genocide' omits so much; the abolition of democracy, bypass of constitutional law to create legal dictatorship, outlaw of unions, implementation of racial purity laws & eugenics programs and the mass murder of their own citizens, political opponents and dissenters.

It is no longer hyperbole to call the GOP the Guardians of Pedophiles. The billionaires party has also become the pedophiles party. Using people seems to have no limits.

Let's rethink the workplace.
You need a *system* which actually balances the needs of the forest against the realities of the trees. One where workers can actually fire or demote their managers. And one where the managers have enough earned trust that they can actually impose the needs of the big picture sometimes.
