I just saw the most evil genius thing I’ve ever seen on TikTok, some girl who googled her town’s Police department’s minimum fitness requirements, and trained so she was a consistently higher standard, then when she did get into an altercation was able to easily out run them.

She is my new hero.

A great article by @anildash about online abuse. I think we are making progress.

my original statement: "good luck with telling NAS that anything opposed to the mainstream isn't God sent."

my revision due to fair criticism: "I don't believe the people on NAS will accept any facts or arguments in line with the establishment."

maybe if I do this, others will too. worth a shot.

it wasn't but yes, I am an atheist. that website is nonsense. just because we don't yet fully understand the universe, doesn't mean there's a god behind it all. when people didn't understand anything about the sun, they assumed it was god etc.

tell me why don't you believe in germ theory, don't point me to a website.

Having spent a week on Bluesky, I am of the opinion that it's looking like it could work out well. The media and A-lister are always going to want a big open space, accessible to all. Let them monetize it creatively if they can (so long as it's not a crypto scheme). It will always be a place to "get attention," more than share ideas content. We can do that here, without all the noise from there. Win-win.

@shoq

I want everyone on the same network. If not and some great voices are only there and lots of people are still exposed to ads and algorithms and data mining, then the fight to move them to a truly open continues.

The revolutionary potential is that the best art, information and ideas can go viral but only if the public decides so. Merit culture. A society improving as quickly as possible. That's what we're doing here. Adding a democratic attention layer to the .

At the town hall, Trump called Kaitlan Collins a for rudely insisting that he answer a question.

But have we ever seen HIM called that to his face? I mean that's his entire persona. It's what his supporters love about him, what distinguished him from the rest of the GOP. He was willing to be a jerk. Break decorum. And now that's come to define the way a large portion of the public discusses politics. I just want a qualified comic to bring the receipts. Bullies hate that.

@ghast

I agree he has been mistreated by the press. but who started it? and I really don't think I've seen him called on his shit to his face. just that you could say you're a nasty person when you've been so much worse, and get that kind of reaction, is so weird.

wjmaggos,
@wjmaggos@liberal.city avatar

@ghast

sure but the problem is so spread out. doing the right thing, which we should still do, doesn't mean anyone will return the favor. they will rightfully claim you're being nice but those people over there are not etc... I guess what I'm proposing is to both do the right thing but also punch bullies back when you encounter them, whether they are on your side or not. and to definitely not laugh at dumb, mean shit that doesn't make any point. we encourage/ignore this downward spiral.

@adam Listening to your deconstruction about the brown white supremacist. You have to remember that a lot of "so called" brown people consider themselves white. Especially those who can tie roots to Spain or Portugal. A lot of middle easterners consider themselves white too.

@amerika @B2thaRed

monarchy generally defines Europe between Rome and the Enlightenment. stable I guess but shittier for most people.

there is no reason to think that monarchy will ensure rule by better people than how our combination of markets and democracy and liberalism allows innovation in all areas of life.

That's not clear at all. Who is everyone? And talk about a period of instability. Directly, you expect to be recognized as someone with the greater ability you just mentioned, no?
