Honestly Bluesky is a microcosm (macrocosm?) of why lefty parties tend to fall apart
Bluesky is a better *platform* than threads but I'm absolutely willing to concede that the community is too toxic to thrive.
If Bluesky were to really act like a profit maximizing business it might consider just banning a bunch of the worst offenders.

I don't know why the council spent money on a bronze model of the town for the promenade. Don't they know anything about sympathetic magic? About the correspondence between macrocosm and microcosm? What happens if a seagull shits on it? They'd be terrible consequences – Rowena Weaver, 1982 #VOH

I believe that the microcosm IS the macrocosm: The smallest acts of compassion, of simple human decency, can ripple out and transform the world. As Eliot Rosewater (via Kurt Vonnegut) observed: “God damn it, you’ve got to be kind.”

They used to patronize us for setting bones as well.
Just because something cannot be logically explained, doesn't mean it never will.

(6/12) So many of the failures that occurred in the microcosm of #MECFS have been repeated and amplified in the macrocosm of #LongCOVID: Misattribution of physical symptoms to psychobehavioural factors. Wasteful allocation of precious resources. Denial and gaslighting about the true impact.
Abandoned, dismissed and gaslighted: there is no excuse for the way ME sufferers have been betrayed | George Monbiot
Changes in guidance and science seem to have little impact on millions of devastated lives. It’s a social crisis playing out behind closed doors, says Guardian columnist George Monbiot

Within the microcosm of Cofnas' lack of charisma and expertise, systemic unoriginality, etc. we have all the features of the macrocosm: they claim uniqueness and specialness, but are functionally fungible; unique only in the specific expression of their own particular moral and intellectual vices
