Twitter/X alternative Bluesky

I know several large membership orgs I’m affiliated with that have left Twitter because it’s a cesspool. I don’t think they have joined bluesky yet, but wouldn’t be surprised if it’s coming.

All local/government orgs should be transitioning.

X requiring "signups" means the entire public cannot access recent "tweets".
They can on Bsky.
 


Didn't take long but bluesky is already the new mastodon. The left really is something else.
 
lol Elon is currently attacking Wikipedia because oligarchs don’t like independent media.

They won't put him as a founder and they had to link the page to what a founder is. That's a real issue for that weirdo.

You know he does just explicitly state his thinking on issues.

You don’t always have to take some third party’s twisted interpretation of his actions as gospel instead.



“Stop donating to Wokepedia until they restore balance to their editing authority

Do you think a balanced approach to editorial discretion has value or is more desirable for Wikipedia and its users?

Or should it be purely woke / censorship / dishonesty oriented?

You can laugh but that doesn't change the fact that he's right. They don't even hide the behavior or ideology to how they run things/behave. You realise the founder of Wikipedia also called out the left for ruining/corrupting the platform with blatant ideological behavior/editing, right? I can provide links..

I’d like to report a murder. 🎤 drop.

Well done @Scruddy

Dumbass as usual. Just because some moron on Twitter misread a chart and Elon is too high to see it doesn’t make it true.
 
More free speech than the platform that shadow-banned the Stanford Professor that tried telling everyone lockdowns wouldn't work. Yeah.

More free speech than the platform that had chinese government agents, indian government agents actively censoring their own citizens.

More free speech than the platform that had dozens of former FBI and CIA actively monitoring and censoring Americans speech they didn’t like.

Yeah that free speech.

“In case you’ve forgotten what a shithole Twitter used to be before Elon bought it, just head over to Bl**sky. It’s like a Twilight Zone parallel universe over there, where the gangrenous limbs of 2018 Twitter have crawled out of the grave and come back to life, without any of the fun or redeeming qualities we’ve always loved about this place. These guys (I mean “folks,” sorry, I’ll do better about improperly using harmful gendered language) continue to think the Biden-Harris administration has been a resounding success, still believe in the Russian pee tape, and hold out everlasting hope the FBI is going to perp-walk Cheeto Hitler into a GITMO holding cell before the inauguration. It’s like all the people who unironically liked the “Ruthkanda Forever” tweet and carried Robert Mueller tote bags around the Palo Alto farmers market have crowded into the world’s most socially awkward lesbian bar, where you’re only allowed to regurgitate Rachel Maddow-approved talking points and where the bouncer with purple hair, non-binary pronouns, and a Slava Ukraini shirt throws you out if you say anything Jo From Jerzey flags as disinformation.

What’s infinitely worse than the NPR-dominated shitlib political milieu, though, is the atmosphere. There’s something about the ambience itself that just feels… wrong. Not truly human. It’s honestly how I imagine East Germany would have felt prior to the fall of the Berlin Wall: a stifling culture of conversational repression and intellectual mediocrity. There’s no room for the spontaneity or risk-taking that serve as prerequisites for flourishing discourse. There are no memes or truly funny jokes (real humor, of course, requiring a tolerance for subversiveness that would undermine the platform’s commitment to “safety”); there is neither the interrogation of grand ideas nor the exploration of great questions. It’s just a never-ending stream of midtwit slop, soulless conformity, and masturbatory virtue signaling.

This is what Elon saved us from with his $44B. And not just on Twitter, but across society. Without X serving as the hub of free speech, open discourse, and citizen media, we would have had no hope of withstanding the corporate DEI seminars and the mainstream media struggle sessions, let alone the Silicon Valley FBI liaisons or the government disinformation boards. Free speech itself would be on life support, and the human spirit in our country would shine all the less brightly.

Don’t believe me? Go spend 15 minutes on the other app. You’ll see exactly what I mean, and you’ll know this is right.

So shine on, you crazy online degenerates. In 2025, keep the memes, offensive jokes, and off-topic shitposts flowing. Lob the craziest stuff you can into the marketplace of ideas, and see what rises to the top. Question the narratives, fact-check the fact-checkers, wrestle with the difficult questions of our age. Wage war for the truth, but always do so with love in your heart, joy in your step, and a smile on your face.

Elon spent a king’s ransom to save free speech and bring joie de vivre back to the digital public square. Let’s not squander that—it’s something far more precious than we may realize until it’s gone.”

Yeah, instead of that we should “trust the science” and go along with “questioning me is questioning science” per Anthony Fauci AKA the liberal Stasi crowd. Ministry of Truth crowd.

Better to be a sanitized gullible credulous sheep than a truth seeker with open discourse.

Read Between The Lies: A Pattern Recognition Guide

When Avril Haines, Director of National Intelligence, announced during Event 201’s pandemic drill in 2019 that they would “flood the zone with trusted sources,” few understood this preview of coordinated narrative control. Within months, we watched it unfold in real time—unified messaging across all platforms, suppression of dissent, and coordinated narrative control that fooled much of the world.

But not everyone stayed fooled forever. Some saw through it immediately, questioning every aspect from day one. Others thought it was just incompetent government trying to protect us. Many initially accepted the precautionary principle—better safe than sorry. But as each policy failure pointed in the same direction—toward more control and less human agency—the pattern became impossible to ignore. Anyone not completely subsumed by the system eventually had to confront its true purpose: not protecting health or safety, but expanding control.

Once you recognize this pattern of deception, two questions should immediately arise whenever major stories dominate headlines: “What are they lying about?” and “What are they distracting us from?” The pattern of coordinated deception becomes unmistakable. Consider how media outlets spent three years pushing Russiagate conspiracies, driving unprecedented social division while laying the groundwork for what would become the greatest psychological operation in history. Today, while the media floods us with Ukraine coverage, BlackRock positions itself to profit from both the destruction and reconstruction. The pattern becomes unmistakable once you see it—manufactured crises driving pre-planned “solutions” that always expand institutional control.

Mainstream media operates on twin deceptions: misdirection and manipulation. The same anchors who sold us WMDs in Iraq, promoted “Russia collusion,” and insisted Hunter Biden’s laptop was “Russian disinformation” still occupy prime time slots. Just as we see with RFK, Jr.’s HHS nomination, the pattern is consistent: coordinated attacks replace substantive debate, identical talking points appear across networks, and legitimate questions are dismissed through character assassination rather than evidence. Being consistently wrong isn’t a bug—it’s a feature. Their role isn’t to inform but to manufacture consent.

The template is consistent: Saturate media with emotional spectacles while advancing institutional agendas with minimal scrutiny. Like learning to spot a fake smile or hearing a false note in music, you develop an instinct for the timing:

Money and Power:

- While the media fixated on January 6th, BlackRock and Vanguard quietly tightened their grip on the residential real estate market

- While coverage obsessed over Trump’s Twitter ban, Congress passed the largest upward transfer of wealth under cover of “Covid relief“

- While breathless reporting tracked every move of the Johnny Depp trial, the Fed printed more money than in the entire previous century

- While media flooded us with Ukraine coverage, unprecedented restrictions on energy production reshaped the global economy

- While reporters breathlessly tracked Trump indictments, central banks accelerated plans for programmable digital currency

Medical Control:

- While media focused on celebrity vaccine promotion, unprecedented numbers of young athletes collapsed on field

- While networks ran wall-to-wall coverage of school shootings, documents revealed Pfizer knew about hundreds of side effects

- While coverage fixated on anti-vax “misinformation,” insurance data showed alarming excess death rates

Digital Control:

- While media obsessed over Twitter content moderation, digital ID infrastructure was quietly built worldwide

- While coverage focused on TikTok privacy concerns, central banks accelerated digital currency development

- While endless AI chatbot debates dominated headlines, biometric surveillance systems expanded globally

As these deceptions become more obvious, different forms of resistance emerge. The truth-seeking takes different forms. Some become deep experts in specific deceptions—documenting early treatment successes with repurposed drugs, uncovering hospital protocol failures, or exploring the impact of vaccine injuries. Others develop a broader lens for seeing how narratives themselves are engineered.

Walter Kirn’s brilliant pattern recognition cuts to the heart of our manufactured reality. His tweets dissecting the United CEO murder coverage expose how even violent crimes are now packaged as entertainment spectacles, complete with character arcs and narrative twists. Kirn’s insight highlights a critical dimension of media control: by turning every crisis into an entertainment narrative, they divert attention from deeper questions. Instead of asking why institutional safeguards fail or who benefits, audiences become captivated by carefully scripted outrage. This deliberate distraction ensures that institutional agendas move forward without scrutiny.

His insight reveals how entertainment packaging serves the broader control system. While each investigation requires its own expertise, this pattern of narrative manipulation connects to a larger grid of deception. As I’ve explored in “The Information Factory” and “Engineering Reality,” everything from education to medicine to currency itself has been captured by systems designed to shape not just our choices, but our very perception of reality.

Most revealing is what they don’t cover. Notice how quickly stories disappear when they threaten institutional interests. Remember the Epstein client list? The Maui land grab? The mounting vaccine injuries? The silence speaks volumes.

Consider the recent whistleblower testimonies revealing suppressed safety concerns at Boeing, a company long entangled with regulatory agencies and government contracts. Two whistleblowers—both former employees who raised alarms about safety issues—died under suspicious circumstances. Coverage of their deaths disappeared almost overnight, despite the profound implications for public safety and corporate accountability. This pattern repeats in countless cases where accountability would disrupt entrenched power structures, leaving crucial questions unanswered and narratives tightly controlled.

These decisions aren’t accidental—they result from media ownership, advertiser influence, and government pressure, ensuring the narrative remains tightly controlled.

But perhaps most striking isn’t the media’s deception itself, but how thoroughly it shapes its consumers’ reality. Watch how confidently they repeat phrases clearly engineered in think tanks. Listen as they parrot talking points with religious conviction: “January 6th was worse than 9/11,” “Trust The Science™,” “Democracy is on the ballot” and, perhaps the most consequential lie in modern history, “Safe and Effective.”

The professional-managerial class proves especially susceptible to this programming. Their expertise becomes a prison of status—the more they’ve invested in institutional approval, the more fervently they defend institutional narratives. Watch how quickly a doctor who questions vaccine safety loses his license, how swiftly a professor questioning gender ideology faces review, how rapidly a journalist stepping out of line gets blacklisted.

The system ensures compliance through economic capture: your mortgage becomes your leash, your professional status your prison guard. The same lawyers who prides themselves on critical thinking will aggressively shut down any questioning of official narratives. The professor who teaches “questioning power structures” becomes apoplectic when students question pharmaceutical companies.

The circular validation makes the programming nearly impenetrable:

- Media cites “experts”
- Experts cite peer-reviewed studies
- Studies are funded by industry
I- ndustry shapes media coverage
- “Fact-checkers” cite media consensus
- Academia enforces approved conclusions

This self-reinforcing system forms a perfect closed loop:

Each component validates the others while excluding outside information. Try finding the entry point for actual truth in this closed system. The professional class’s pride in their critical thinking becomes darkly ironic—they’ve simply outsourced their opinions to “authoritative sources.”

Most disturbing is how willingly they’ve surrendered their sovereignty. Watch them defer:

- “I follow the science” (translation: I wait for approved conclusions)

- “According to experts” (translation: I don’t think for myself)

- “Fact-checkers say” (translation: I let others determine truth)

- “The consensus is” (translation: I align with power)

Their empathy becomes a weapon used against them. Question lockdowns? You’re killing grandma. Doubt transition surgery for minors? You’re causing suicides. Resist equity initiatives? You’re perpetuating oppression. The programming works by making resistance feel like cruelty.
