Have you gone on blue sky yet?

I can honestly recommend it. It’s a breath of fresh air. It’s like what Twitter was like to begin with. It’s not got the nasty toxic right wing people on it like Twitter has and most people have left Twitter in massive numbers and gone over to blue sky it is actually designed by the people that set up Twitter to begin with.
. I am not very technological minded, but I am finding my way around it. It seems to be very good that you can have different feeds. Something they said about yesterday on a video I watched about trying to stop the algorithms from giving you wrong things it could’ve done previously.. more about community anyway I just thought I’d wonder if anybody else was on it?

I never said you deserve hate either i said yes God dam it there will be a push back. You got one evidence of someone saying trans women are men as women you know full well that's gonna be pushed back on its offensive. Now you may disagree with it being offensive but that is life .

What do you mean by pushed back on? What do you think should happen to people who say men cannot be women?

In my post up the thread I explained what happened to women when Jack Dorsey owned Twitter. Do you think any of that was reasonable?

Sebastian Payne is in the centre right starter pack.

What a time to be alive.

I’m on it. It’s easy to use. I got loads and loads of non binary content at the start. I’m a trans ally but not interested in hearing about it all the time. Put me off.

As I said, push back on, if you want an opinion that is offensive, then people will just push back and say it's wrong, then you can argue your point.They can argue their point and that's it and end up blocking each other.If you don't want to go any further.
Some people don't agree with your side. That's fine. Just move on and leave it? That's all that has to be, because these two sides are not going to start recognising that the both wrong or both right or whatever
No one should be bullied or be nasty but some people push stuff to far

"It’s like what Twitter was like to begin with."

So full of trans activists graphically threatening to rape and murder 'terfs'? Censoring content from elected politicians if they don't like their views? Yeah, I'll stick with X thanks. For those who want it, there's definitely still plenty of left-wing hatred there. And if you find hearing opinions you don't agree with too upsetting, just ignore the 'Trending' feed and only look at the posts from people who always say things you like - like how men in dresses want to "rape women in holes they don't even have yet". Ah, the good old days of Twitter - before Elon turned it all hateful... Judging by this op's previous posts I suspect this is very much the sort of content he enjoys, but I personally prefer a bit more balance and rather less sickening and violent misogyny.

So do you think a social media platform whose billionaire owner is now heavily involved in the affairs, ideology and running of the government is a good recipe for balance? Regardless of political opinion, I think we should at least agree that Twitter is no longer the independent space for information sharing and discussion for all people on that ground alone. Perhaps far right people should also move to a different space.
I personally probably won’t join Blue Sky in the near future but I definitely will if the world goes to shit in terms of war on vaccines, tariffs, climate stuff going backward, wars etc.

What is offensive is women believing that they have the right to give away women's rights.

Do you think that women should have any spaces free from males OP? Sports? Prisons? Rape Crisis Centres?

Or do you think that males who identify as women should be everywhere they want? Even when you know that this harms women?

Arguing our point is what women have been doing. We haven't been the ones banning, doxxing and making violent threats.

I'm going to assume then if people are banned on Blue Sky for merely arguing their point then you'll speak out against that sort of totalitarian behaviour.

I think the argument is much more nuanced then that. No I don't think trans women harm women i think things should be done on a case by case basis .
I think say India Willoughby full surgery is not a risk to any woman however someone who rapes a woman then claims to be a woman should not be allowed i n a woman's jail. It's about common sense.
I don't like the hate that folks like posie parker bas towards trans people the viteral it needs to calm down.
I also think some comments by some trans people online not nice at all

That's where you r wrong I have seen it get nasty on videos etc to the trans side to. This is like the Israel Palestine war because people take sides. We have to be able to see there are wrongs and rights on both sides

India Willoughby is a misogynistic male who supports the destruction of women's spaces and sports. Cutting off body parts doesn't make a man a woman. Human's can't change sex.

We can't police women's rights on a 'case by case' basis , how do you suppose that would work? Genital inspections?

All women are doing is saying no to men. If you think that's wrong then I can't help you really.

So you've got a lovely trans friend which means that no women should have single sex spaces. That figures...

India Willoughby wanted to have JKR arrested and bunged up in a van, India is no friend to women.
