I have and will continue to. But you know why I say it here ? Because @bsky.app is 30m strong and growing quickly. The collective wisdom and influence of users here is far greater than any individual democrat.

I can't say it enough. Bluesky can be the influence that can counter RW media.
No offense, Mark, but you have influence and power most of us don’t. Why don’t you speak up to those in DC you have connections with? Actions speak louder than words as you well know.

My influence grows
Because of you I wrapped leftover orange chicken and yakisoba and a lil fried rice in a tortilla , splashed teriyaki and chili crisp over the lot and devoured it while my husband looked on with equal parts awe and horror. I regret nothing. That’s why.

“Did not” influence is a different thing than “tried to, but failed.”

really interesting that the vice president cites as a key intellectual influence a guy who thinks black people are natural slaves
