People. The Canadian government isn’t running around asking people to immigrate here.
If you see an online poll about whether you’re a sought-after immigrant, then you’re either being sucked into an immigration scam or being entered into the most annoying phone scam ever.

“this person is bad so their work was always bad” is also a really dangerous view to take because it leads to - unconscious or not - a bias towards “but I do like this other person’s work, ergo they must be a good person”
which, as we have seen over and over, is simply not true
which, as we have seen over and over, is simply not true
What happens a lot on social media is when someone (Warren Ellis, Neil Gaiman now Ed Brubaker) has allegations thrown at them people tend to leap out the woodwork saying "their work was never good."
That helps no one as it's irrelevant. What matters is their actions and what they did.

Re: Brubaker, Ellis, etc.
Good work is good work. I don't feel duped for having bought and enjoyed good stories. HOWEVER, good work is not unique. And let it be known that producing good work does not allow for bad behavior. It is also not a shield that will prevent someone from kicking your ass.

If one Nazi comes on here and says "I'm a Nazi" and 100 responders say "Fuck Nazis" they'll ban those 100 people. If one trans person says "I'm trans" and 100 nazis say "Fuck Trans people" Bluesky will ban the trans person.
Dogpiling or harassing users is unacceptable. We have taken recent action against accounts for this behavior, and we will be increasing our efforts, consistent with our Community Guidelines.

This summer, I cross contaminated the local business world with my unsettling presence. The greater Sacramento region is slated to receive Hudson Dam levels of investment income, and it has occurred to me that I would like to have a voice in how it’s spent.
