This is probably what we'll end up with in the long-run. Things have been fast enough without it (aside from this issue) but there's a lot of low-hanging fruit for Timelines architecture updates. We're spread pretty thin from a engineering-hours standpoint atm so there's a lot of intense prioritization going on.

- Xunjin 2y agoJust to be clear, you are a Bluesky engineer, right? off-topic: how has been dealing with the influx of new users after X political/legals problems aftermath? Did you see an increase in toxicity around the network? And how has you (Bluesky moderation) dealing with it.

- breakyerself 2y agoThere's nothing wrong with being partisan if you're partisan against fascists who want to destroy democracy and the rule of law.
- Imustaskforhelp 2y agoFunny how you call trump administration fascist. (theoretically its anti fascist but its still bad , Taking from the description of the video since this was what immediately ringed when you said trump===fascism The liberal theory of the rise of Trumpism and its supposed fascistic features is inadequate in both effectively analysing and offering solutions to the present situation. Liberals often personalise or individualise people like Donald Trump and Elon Musk, casting them as deviations, as opposed to manifestations of class society. Class analysis suggests that fascism was a unique response to growing anti-capitalist organisations, socialist and/or anarchist, gaining prominence and posing threats to the economic base. The owning class required a mass movement which enveloped otherwise disillusioned people into a political project which had the collectivist, anti-free market appeal that socialist and anarchist organisations had, but nonetheless committed to solidifying and strengthening the economic base and profit motive. In modern America, no such anti-capitalist threat exists. Neoliberalism has created significant disillusionment with mainstream social and political institutions and systems, but this disillusionment hasn’t been captured by anti-capitalist forces, but rather by the populist right. As such, the populist right doesn’t need to give up the economic game, i.e. free markets, deregulation, privatisation, austerity, etc (with the exception of tariffs), but can purely rely on minorities as scapegoats in a constructed culture war, such as immigrants, ‘wokeness’, transgender people, etc. Therefore, capital doesn’t need to be subordinated to the nation-state, like pursued by contemporary fascist governments. Rather, in this ‘inverted’ fascism, capital takes over and exploits the state in a rather oligarchic manner. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pqdLwkyfLdM https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pqdLwkyfLdM This video is really great , I spent 10 minutes looking for this. I am not a trump supporter , The title might be a little clickbaity (basically the opposite of what it really is) You might find it really great. It is one of the best videos I have ever watched on politics.
- meowface 2y agoI find communist analysis tiresome, especially when in this case the populist right under Trump seems to be motivated in part by anti-free market ideas. The communist kneejerk reaction to every single situation is "this can be explained by class analysis". It's them trying to shoehorn their pet theory into everything.
