Bard spotting on Bluesky 12 August 2024

Gwen Snyder is uncivil (@gwensnyder.bsky.social):

It's not just that they got their stuff online,, it's SPECIFICALLY that the Chapo Trap House and dirtbag "left" podcast cottage industry spent half a decade using terms like ZOG supposedly ironically and made these kids think that sort of language was cute and edgy and fun

Peter (@notalawyer.bsky.social):

it used to be that activists got most of their education through other activists, so well organized groups could root this shit out. now most activists get their education online and bring it with them, so you get 20 somethings with zero historical understanding deciding that "ZOG" is ok

Ms. Penny Oaken (@skywitches.net):

They'd even dogwhistle it as "Albanian Monarch" on the subreddit.

It's insulting that the subreddit audience maintains their sub was wrongly banned.

Usili (@usili.bsky.social):

I'm just fricking screenshotting it, and I honestly don't give two shits right now about it, but it is fricking insane to straight up see people defend the usage of the term 'ZOG' and then also go to say they're gonna appropriate all the Nazi terms.

Its such a sheer what the frick and rage-inducing.

Ms. Penny Oaken (@skywitches.net):

… Holy heck

I think I talked to her once. Yesterday. What a complete and utter fool

Gwen Snyder is uncivil (@gwensnyder.bsky.social):

Yeah and just so we're all clear, it's not "appropriating Nazi terms."

It's being a Nazi.

Gwen Snyder is uncivil (@gwensnyder.bsky.social):

And @pfrazee.com and all of them need to be deplatforming each and every one of these Nazis aggressively, before this place becomes a Nazi bar just like the old place did.

This is how it starts.

Dillon Open for writing Commissions (@6sidedgames.bsky.social):

Looks like they are gone. I had them blocked and they are no longer on my block list.

Ms. Penny Oaken (@skywitches.net):

Account no longer exists / is yoinked. Doesn't say Deactivated, says doesn't exist

Popehat (@kenwhite.bsky.social):

I hate living in an era when this is a completely plausible question fairly raised by actual circumstances and not a lunatic made-up scenario.

(@birdlanddad.bsky.social):

@kenwhite.bsky.social If a person sues the DOJ for monetary damages, and then becomes the President, can they order the DOJ to pay to settle the suit? What limits are there on the size of a settlement before the DOJ would need to get Congressional approval?

サージャントヒッピー (@sgthippie.bsky.social):

Once President, which actions can he take involving this case that would be considered official acts?

Ms. Penny Oaken (@skywitches.net):

That depends on what the courts decide are within scope. Which, according to Roberts, they haven't done, yet.

Owl's Eyes Ty(ler) (@jtsdmpk.bsky.social):

The immunity decision comes down pretty hard in favor of unitary executive, which goes strongly in favor of the worst possible outcome of that hypothetical.

daphné sherry-leneita jones (@daphrodite.bsky.social):

Fair! I live in a very purple state and the most hype I've seen about Kamala is that she isn't trump. That's about all the hype I have for her, too

Ms. Penny Oaken (@skywitches.net):

in 2020 I voted for Harris to be next in line for the Presidency, in the 2024 Primary I voted for Harris to be next in line for the Presidency, and this November I'll be voting for her again.

Hard to beat "Votes for her 3 times" for enthusiasm.

daphné sherry-leneita jones (@daphrodite.bsky.social):

What state do you live in that even had a primary this year?

The best part about Bardy's Bluesky is seeing the s he reposts beg for money all day and night with ridiculous asks claiming they are disabled and can't work. lol

This is one of the grosser ones but she spends all fricking day and night begging nonstop and I guess even the s are sick of her. She's been spamming that nobody is giving her money all night lol

Ms. Penny Oaken (@skywitches.net):

This can backfire, and did, in 2016. Take them at their word, that they will run everything into the ground if people don't turn out to oppose them.

A great dilemma: How to take them seriously enough to keep them from having political wins while mocking them to keep them from having social capital

Tapping the "FASCISM IS AN IDEOLOGY OF THE AESTHETICS OF POWER; RIDICULE THE AESTHETICS AND THE POWER PROJECTION COLLAPSES" sign again

olive consumer (@machete.gay):

The solution, as I am often saying, is contempt.

People must be reminded these people are funny, certainly, but loathsome worms to be derided and expelled from polite society, pushed to its fringes to die alone.

And that starts at the ballot box!
