Sorry hon, but the “I’m just protecting trans people” argument is not the get out of racism jail free card you seem to think it is.

If you think that Black folks are the enemy of trans people then you’re not fighting for any of us

listen

I don't have any illusions about the United States military, what it does, or how many times this has happened before

but the fact that they sat there for 41 minutes, watched two scared, human beings desperately struggling to stay alive, and then murdered them has fucked me up so deeply

Morale at paypros call centers is in the toilet right now. It’s not just normal Black Friday stress, they’re being pounded. Corporate is pressuring bosses to end the paypros call campaigns. Source familiar w/ internals at MC stressed that folks should stand their ground but be kind to agents (1)

I dont think everyone needs a gender transition but everyone needs to practice the radical self-knowledge, abolition and community building inherent in the practice and that part DOES threaten this world and Im so fucking proud of each and every one of us who shows the world that

Tech bros: we’ve created a computer that will provide you with racist, gender-critical council filled with anti-scientific drivel that confirms all your biases

Pope: hey that’s my job!
ponder.ooo ponder @ponder.ooo · Nov 7
important to keep in mind every time the pope talks about "moral discernment" a significant part of what he means by that is staunch opposition to homosexuality and gender transition

the way to do that is to create as many systems of care as possible with orbital pathways into these systems that pull as many of us as possible away from the black hole of power at the center of this galaxy looking for every reason to seek the wanton destruction of every trans particle in existence

Someone shot up my kid's school today, and our governor is paying tribute to a guy who thought that is an acceptable price to pay for having the Second Amendment.

Hey @moderation.bsky.app what the everliving fuck?! Who the fuck is this targeting of Palestinians serving right now? Is this seriously what you wanted to do with your life? Do you wake up every morning wondering how many rugs you can pull from under people trying to survive a genocide?

Hey @mcbride.house.gov,‬ how am I doing? Am I voting hard enough to survive yet? Ok, just let me know when we win the next election cause I'll be too busy ruthlessly surviving to notice

jfc. I mean, I'd kinda like someone with institutional power to actually protect us so we don't have to spend the rest of our lives honing our ruthless survival skills, but sure Sarah I guess we'll try your thing for a bit

Hi all. My friend Alaa's account was deleted, but she has a new account at @mamatwins.bsky.social. She asked me to tell all her friends about her new account so we can all follow her again. I'm also going to share a comic about her story.

guy following all the biggest fascism sympathizers on bluesky: literally the dril wise man tweet
Skeet from Marius Vale @holyanthemofiron.bsky.social with the following labels: Brianna Wu Follower Jesse Singal Follower Jonathan Chait Follower Matt Yglesias Follower Tom Nichols Follower JD Vance Follower And these ignoble words that sound like the christo-fascist version of the dril wise-man tweet: If true, it's evil. If false, it's propaganda. Either way, you're asking me to choose between two tribes that worship different demons. I choose Christ. He died for Jew and Arab alike. Let the warmongers answer to Him.

And what then - in this theoretical world where the only way for dems to win elections is to abandon trans folks to the wolves? Will they fight for us in 2 years? In 4? In 20?

How many other oppressed will they trample once they learn that the road to power is paved with dead minorities?

It’s not for her own gain, it’s for everyone’s gain.

If Dems can’t win elections, it doesn’t matter who they want to protect or what degree of protection they’re calling for.

Winning elections has to come first. Otherwise no one gets anything at all.

We were hoping that this letter to @bsky.app could first be shared by a Gazan, but we were too worried that doing so would get their account deleted so we are sharing first.

You can sign on to the letter about the unfair treatment of Gazans on Bluesky here:

docs.google.com/document/d/1...
[CLICK here if you would like your name added to this letter] النسخة العربية من هذه الرسالة متاحة أدناه. Open Letter to the Bluesky Team About Their Treatment of Palestinians in Gaza The signatories of this letter are all members of the Bluesky community, many of us have actively participated on the platform since its inception. We came to Bluesky because it was a breath of fresh air, a place that felt different from many of the other social media platforms. The lack of a central algorithm, the ability to build and use custom feeds, and the lack of penalty for link promotion contributed to an environment that allowed diverse and interesting voices to find their footing and community on Bluesky. While some of the signatories of this letter have had no issues with speaking their mind publicly on Bluesky, unfortunately that is not true for all the signatories because many are Palestinians currently living in Gaza. These Palestinians are journalists, artists, engineers, teachers, grandmas, entrepreneurs, a man who owned an ice cream shop, a pediatrician who has been featured on CBS Morning News, aid workers, architects, waiters, pharmacists, students–and perhaps most essential to the backbone of Bluesky, posters. All of these people provide unique and interesting voices to the Bluesky community. However, unlike the other signatories of this letter, these Bluesky community members have struggled to keep their accounts on the platform. Most of them have lost multiple accounts and/or have had their accounts labeled as spam. Some cannot even make an account without it immediately being removed from the platform. Gazans undertake immense efforts to simply be on Bluesky. Sometimes, they walk for miles just to have access to the internet. They scale rooftops where they are exposed to potential military attacks just for the opportunity to get better cell signals–one signatory of this letter tragically lost her brother this way. They use what little money they have to pay … Gazans have also been aggressively targeted and unfairly reported by bad actors. Many accounts openly encourage the reporting and targeting of any Palestinian. Several groups exist for the express purpose of looking for Palestinian accounts to report. We believe Bluesky owes Gazans, and the entire community who benefits from their voices, a greater duty of care especially in the context of the horrors they are enduring. We ask Bluesky to implement the following changes: Provide information on all Bluesky-affiliated websites in Arabic that explains the rules and expectations of the site in clear language. Investigate the accounts that are mass-reporting Palestinians on Bluesky. The mass reporting of Palestinians on Bluesky is a group effort to render the platform a hostile place for a community based on their ethnicity. As such, it is racism, and should be understood as such. Reports against Palestinians who have broken no community guidelines must be understood as racism, and the accounts that submit those reports should be disregarded in the future. Many Bluesky users encourage Gazans to tag or reply to them, and this is not always understood as unwelcome behavior. If an account is reported as Spam for tagging or replying to others, treat only reports from the tagged/mentioned account as legitimate, seeing as they were the only ones who received a notification. Send emails regarding disciplinary action every time it is taken. Gazans do not always get an email explaining what they did wrong, and those that do are required to parse a language they do not speak in order to understand their violation. Have these emails contain an easily visible link to information about their violations in Arabic. Respond to appeals in a timely fashion, many Gazans simply never hear back from Bluesky after they appeal a decision. In addition to removing Gazans for alleged spam behavior, Bluesky has also sometimes indicated that they are deleting an account for being a scam or … End IP bans on any account from Gaza and allow them to make new accounts where they can comply with Bluesky rules and continue to be valued members of the community. We understand that even if all these changes are made, many Gazans may still violate Bluesky rules in the future, but we hope that Bluesky will abandon their punitive approach to these violations and instead embrace an attitude of education, cooperation and community care– one that works to ensure people in Gaza can participate in a way that keeps their voices heard. We also call on the Bluesky community to help and support these accounts however they can. We want to continue to build a healthy community with better community members and this cannot be done if Gazans continue to be shunned. We can use this as an opportunity to show how to protect all vulnerable groups in the future. We hope that Bluesky does not follow the path of other social media platforms and instead forges ahead with a different philosophy. After all, that is the reason so many of its users are there. Bluesky's ethos of "No Caesars” should apply to all members of its community. [To add your name to the list of signatories, click here.]
