Well I am now 6 months in and this comment still applies. The amount of users on here showing intolerance or that want to gas light is staggering. Also, it’s coming from BOTH sides of the political/social spectrum. What happened to society???
I am disappointed with my experience on Bluesky thus far. I left Twitter to avoid right-wing extremism, rhetoric, and hate, but I have encountered a significant amount of left-wing extremism and hate instead. Nevertheless, I am willing to give the platform a fair chance.

The problem for West is that tweets expressing outrage are free, whereas ammunition is not.

The United States slide into authoritarianism/dictatorship has been remarkably fast and easy. Who would have thought the populace that values freedom so much was so easily convinced to give it up.

Meanwhile in Russia: State Duma member Oleg Morozov and giddy propagandists Olga Skabeeva and Evgeny Popov rejoiced about Trump keeping and exceeding his promises, while Moscow isn't giving an inch. They expect him to deliver even more blows to Ukraine.

I can’t believe what I am hearing from “The Leader of the Free World” we are now living in the upside down. U.S. citizens, I hope you enjoyed your world influence while you had it. It’s gone.

On Zelenskyy…
I think he's in a class of his own. Future leaders will have to live up to his standard.

I wish all of my friends in the US a very happy Thanksgiving. Even though you celebrate it on the wrong weekend 😉.

Actually an overlooked and important point not only in this context.
A significant addition to the “russia could easily nuke the west” debates is that almost every single child of every single top russian official lives in said west

Everyone please have these conversations with people in their circle. The lack of understanding in North America of this war is astounding.
What is preventing World War III? Ukrainians are containing the ongoing war in Europe to their own country; they are deterring war in the Pacific; and they are preventing spread of nuclear weapons. These scenarios have not played out because Ukrainians take risks

Remember new users are coming on daily, unsure of engagement. The more posts you like and reply to, the strong the platform becomes !

A friendly suggestion. When debating me on the reasons Russia invaded Ukraine, don’t quote RFK Jr. as your source.

Pulled the plug on Twitter. Hello Bluesky people. I come in peace.
