People skeeting stuff.
Bluesky Social is a microblogging social platform being developed in conjunction with the decentralized AT Protocol. Previously invite-only, the flagship Beta app went public in February 2024. All are welcome!
Vice President JD Vance’s Bluesky account was suspended within minutes of him joining the platform. His posts criticized medical treatments for transgender youth and claimed pharmaceutical influence over healthcare decisions.
Do you think JD understands the irony that posting an exerpt from Justice Thomas that is against appealing to the authority of "experts", is, in itself, in fact appealing to the authority of an "expert", Justice Thomas, to support his stance? His stance of course being that medical treatment of minors with gender dysphoria in a way that does anything but reinforce the gender on their birth certificate is bad medicine/science. And both Vance and Justice Thomas also, being... I see here "not experts in anything remotely to do with medical science, gender dysphoria, adolescent development, or any field at all that would inform any semblance of a valid opinion on the matter of how to properly treat these kids medically" might, in fact, make their stance a little bit non-authoritative. Maybe both of them should stay in their lanes of bad faith partisan political theatre, bribery, and forcing the sprint we are all on towards fascism. That seems to be where their real skill sets are.
BIG PHARMA MAKIN THE KIDS CUT THEY DICKS OFF
god republicans are stupid. So fucking stupid.
The hormones used are basically all generics too
This looks like some good sealioning. He probably didn’t write it himself. I think he was playing to his fans and trying to discredit Bluesky and its community guidelines. I wonder if Musk paid him, or if he did this on his own.
The account is back. I reported it for misinformation and lying.
Remember when Twitter - even before leon bought it - decided Trump was too important to ban, even tho he was violating the shit out of their TOS...
Does the PBC that owns BlueSky have an official stance on whether political officials can be "too big to ban?"
fyi he didn't get banned; https://bsky.app/profile/jd-vance-1.bsky.social
i do recommend this moderation list as he's already on it: https://bsky.app/profile/randomvariable.co.uk/lists/3kc2e7efqqw2k
I wonder if he was mass reported and temporarily automod banned
i assume that or they banned him before they confirmed it was him
Pretty sure he did that on purpose so he can tell the public how awful and disgusting he thinks Bluesky is in the future.
Oh absolutely. He's a slimy little fuckstain.
Nah. This seems a transparent attempt to gather political good will. The Nazis have whipped our ass with their social-media ground game. This is simply another tentacle.
This isn't how you start for good will.
I'm already seeing reminders on bluesky to JUST block and ignore them. The right wingers who tried invading Bluesky earlier got bored and left cause they all got blocked.
"Bad arguments and substandard science" - AKA, this administration's unofficial motto.
Every accusation is an admission.
He could join one of the Nazi mastodon instances, although I bet he is already on his boss’.
You're likely thinking of Mastodon.social, where they call any opposition to genocide & war antisemitic & ban you.
Damn, another regime front lol
I mean, why go there when X is already the nazi twitter.
That’s exactly why it was doomed to failure the moment Elon was forced to complete his purchase of Twitter.
I heard somewhere truthsocial is a fork of mastodon but has no federation built in
even stupider, i believe it's a horrible out of date fork of mastodon that's insecure as fuck
Insecure? You mean about the tiny hands? Remember that?
GUYS! I'M BRINGING BACK THE CLASSICS!
insecure as fuck
then its only a matter of time before they get done to them what those trans hackers did to Andrew Tates social media a few months ago. I think they were trans, idk all I remember about the attack is that they flooded all the chatrooms on it with trans flag emojis and leaked all the user data
Both Truth and Gab are running on mastodon, yes. Truth doesn't federate, Gab was retaliatory blocked across the fediverse
Is Justice Thomas a doctor or a scientist? No?
Then who gives a shit what his opinion is. He should be listening to the experts...not contradicting them. If his ruling is based solely on his personal feelings on this topic, then he needs to recuse himself from this case.
How does banning work on bluesky? Is it instance based or network wide.
There is like one main server, so same as reddit
He should join one of the tankie Lemmy instances for a real choice treatment. That would be fun for to watch for 5 minutes
I'd pay so much money to see JD get 1v1000 dogpiled by tankies on any topic. It might be one of the few times i'd be on their side.
They'd just split. There are trans rights deniers there, like that one admin/dev. Some are closer to MAGA than Marx in their allegiances.
What we would give for that
Talking about the highlighted part of Thomas's statement. They're enshrining anti-intellectualism into court rulings
Hahah I'm enjoy the image of him trying to sign up and finding out his names already taken, having to add underscores and finally attempting it with a number as well.
