Some of you are blaming @jay.bsky.team or @bsky.app in general, or claiming that this is being forced by @moderation.bsky.app. That could not be further from the truth. I'm shutting it down of my own volition because some of you can't be trusted to use this information reasonably and responsibly.

The White House Antifa Roundtable is one of the best displays I’ve seen of this-is-how-bad-it’s-gotten — just a sewer of open fascism, dementia, morons and freaks, and incoherent rage.

This labeler will be shutting down. We will first be unlabeling everyone who is labeled and then will cease to operate. As the unlabeling operation will take an unknown amount of time, we are not setting a specific timeline other than as soon as possible.

I went to hs in Pittsburgh, we played St Joes Prep every year in states.

It’s Pennsylvania with Midwest characteristics. Don’t you dare compare any part of the state to Ohio. How dare you

True. They definitely threw a fit at the time and about the performance itself.

The fact that he sings in Spanish, and we’re months if not years into one of the most racist scapegoating campaigns in American history, the fascist police state labels him an “other” or “undesirable”

they can successfully villainize any Latin person as a foreigner and therefore the enemy even if they’re Puerto Rican. Kendrick is very much AMERICAN

NeoLiberals use the phrase “purity test” as a dog whistle for bigotry and open hatred for those seen as a threat to their power and influence.

If you are willing to throw away entire groups of people to protect your insular strategy that will only protect you instead of protecting everyone then I don’t want your leaders and I sure as hell don’t want to be associated with you.

I hate to say it but the majority of the country is not going to die on the hill of trans rights. We can’t protect ANY groups if we can’t win a national election, so purity tests only serve to make specific groups feel triumphant. That’s not “erasing” them; it’s long-horizon strategy.

Stephen Miller said the quiet part out loud. Trump has “plenary authority,” then suddenly went silent. Their plan wasn’t to be public yet. Clearly, someone hit the panic button in his earpiece.

It gets weirder: CNN uploaded the interview with the “plenary authority” comment edited out.
