@wb2ifs I assume you're responding to A.R. Moxon, correct?

@peterbrown Yes, well-noted.

@RiBurton You're responding to Mike Madrid re: mass deportations of the past, right?

@AnneTheWriter1 The rush to BlueSky has surely been interesting to watch. I'm not on BlueSky and haven't felt any impulse to go there. But it's clear there's a big move there from X after the election, isn't it?

@Nazani Thanks for noting that. Yes, we have a long, long history of training for deportions (and, honestly, genocide) when it comes to the Native American population.

@Runyan50 I'm not one to welcome violence, but I would definitely welcome some strong proactive pushback if that's in the offing.

@wdlindsy It looks that way. I'm over there. Have been for around 14 months, but it has little to do with politics. I trying for a professional community that just isn't present here, at least not yet.

@wdlindsy Trumpie's base doesn't understand that word or what it means to them! When they start losing benefits they assumed fell from the sky it'll start hurting. Then he'll tell them it's Joe's fault and they'll believe that too!

@luv_wins You're right. We're in a reality-free world, many of us are right now, and I don't see those of us who like it there returning to reality anytime soon.

@wdlindsy I'm not blind to the issues OR the potential problem. It could happen. Very well might. But I survived it before and would probably survive it again. My issue remains that it's currently my only realistic alternative. I love Mastodon, but it doesn't fill the necessary gap for me. I loved Twitter--way back in the day. For a long time it was very effective for what I needed. Perhaps this can be the same, at least for a while.

@jnye I hope you'll find what you need at BlueSky or Mastodon or another site, for sure.
