Why does that trigger a red alert?

Pattern recognition - people who are on bsky are overly concerned with pronouns and extreme leftist ideology and/or extreme hate for trump. There is no actual discourse. Just a bubble where there is no tolerance for debate or difference of opinion.

  >There is no actual discourse. Just a bubble where there is no tolerance for debate or difference of opinion. That's an ironic argument from someone trying to argue for Twitter

    Agreed, Twitter suspended accounts for "misgendering" and sharing Hunter Biden laptop stories. It was a bubble that protected leftists. X, however, is pro free speech. Everyone is platformed. Everyone can discuss. Everyone can debate. It is a bubble that protects free speech from censorship. The left struggles to understand it and retreats to bluesky.

      “Everyone” isn’t platformed on X, I’ve seen enough stories of Musk himself banning people he doesn’t like from the platform with plenty of audience cheering him on. What’s more, the EFF numbers seem to tell a story of shadowbanning as another commenter said, not merely dying engagement. You don’t have a “free speech” microphone on X. You just have a place where you can hang out with others that are also sharing views most of the people outside the US find atrociously medieval. Power to you I guess. (And before you call me “the left” - I’m not; I just don’t live in the Overton window that is across the Atlantic).

        Really seems like western europe is sandwiched between fascist trends that have taken hold, diverting their own via brexit's failure - maybe something to do with how yellow vests were received in france too? Sure seems like Europe dipped its toes in the water for awhile and is changing its mind. Defending my own shared identity, I have to repeatedly mention how bifurcated our society is. We are still trying to get out of the water.

  "Extreme leftist ideology", I actually wish they had that, sadly pronouns have little to do with economic inequality and faulty markets.

It's a signal of lying, closed minded, authoritarian, sexist, and racist ideologues. The truth and people telling it fear no debate. Debate isn't allowed on blusky.

    It's 90% debate lol It's the pvp of social media. What are you talking about? Hilariously absurd statement.
