    Does this include FEMA staff as well? My partner works for that agency and they’ve been bleeding staff for years now, can’t imagine getting dragged into this chaos not speeding that up.

      Yeah, but joining an instance is so hard guys. How am I supposed to know which one to join? What if I join the wrong one? The human brain was never meant to know more than one domain name.

      The whole Internet should just be one single website so I don’t have to think. But I will complain about how only one rich guy owns that website, but I’ll do it on that website since it’s the “public square”.

      Bluesky never had a policy against letting fascists join. There’s been a fascist community there since day 1. If you only noticed when JD Vance joined, you weren’t paying attention.

      Why would you want them to censor people? Demanding they censor people is what gives them permission to do bullshit like this where they censor posts and information.

      The fact that so many leftists have been convinced that censorship is good is actually scary. If you are pro-censorship then you aren’t a leftist.

      Unless Bluesky openly stated that they are a private community where only leftists are allowed then you shouldn’t be asking for censorship.

    “Our Community Guidelines protect people’s safety and privacy by prohibiting the unauthorized sharing of personal information and other content that could pose safety risks. Because the files include the email addresses and phone numbers of individuals, shared without their authorization, we are blocking links to the dataset.”

    I understand where they’re coming from because they shouldn’t pick-and-choose who gets doxxed, the info in the leak hasn’t been vetted it could contain random innocents, if violence happens and someone was enabled by info on their platform they could be held liable etc. etc. Like I get it, I do, and fuck off for censoring on the side of the fash, but at the dame time I get the feeling they might not be absolutely 100% sincere in removing this from their platform since the block message leaves the URL on it’s own line as easily copied text…

      Oh my God, they put the URL on the page. Sharing a screenshot of it is totally fair game, and still spreads the URL, while giving you the plausible deniability of only posting it to criticize Bluesky.

      Still, fuck Bluesky for this. I told people that joining “Twitter cloned by cryptobros” was a bad idea, and they didn’t listen.
