Bluesky Social, like Twitter/X but lots of censorship

Just because I like to be well rounded I made a profile for myself on Bluesky Social.

It is a platform similar to Twitter/X but seems to be very far left leaning, and censors dissent and conservative ideas. I plugged in my interests and checked off things like news, journalism, politics, but stayed away from things like entertainment.

My "feed" showed up with an image of Captain America profaning the Lord's name while saying to punch Nazi's, posts from A-O-C and Taylor Swift updates.

hmmm. . . perhaps it the wrong place for me to hang out?

What I can tell you that I did NOT see was any actual news.

So I went in and started looking deeper. Found a way to prioritize news.

Typed in Israel and the first post to come up said "btw fuck Israel" that was the entire post.

If this is what you want, Bluesky is your place.
 
So I made my first post on Bluesky.

Trying to fit in. Trying to be ecologically conscious and hyper sensitive to woke feelings. How did I do?

I’ve heard about it. Sounds like the perfect safe place echo chamber for liberals. I was on a local site kind of like that, I got banned years ago, turned out they don’t like hearing the truth or being corrected. I don’t see it lasting very long. Even a roomful of just liberals can’t get a long for any length of time.

GenZ is amazing? WTF.
You have to pay them to bring you 50 sheets of paper?
Can they count them on paper as you said or do they just know how to push a button to count to 50?
Why did the person need exactly 50 sheets? Sounds like a test for the intern. I'd just ask for a stack of paper.
 
Just a random thing that was recommended for me to read.

These people actually help, or therapy.
