It won't take over I am sure, but it will hopefully be the platform where all the decent people Elong is desperate to attack go to get way from the right wing guff he is sewing. He can lord it over his disciples as they eat each other alive on Tw@tter, knowing he messed up.


I wonder if all the people leaving for Blue Sky has helped even it out a bit? 65% to 48% is some drop.
 
Social media has long been awash with a disproportionate amount of liberal compared to conservative opinions.

Has it? If so, I think it is cos most right wing opinions are not particularly nice and, as such, they are less likely to share them - that was until Trump, Brexit and Elon etc normalised division and the like. What would you rather your family/friends see you post... inclusivity or division??
 
I left Twitter years ago, facebook even longer.

Social media is evil.
My facebook feed recently is full of 'life was better when we were younger' or 'woke nonsense' posts, it is pure Russian bot stuff generating anger among people stupid enough to fall for it.

Fair points, I think the reason for the higher percentage usually is a socio demographic one, lower/blue collar are more likely in the states to be conservative, middle class/white collar more likely to be liberal. One groups more likely to hop on the internet during down time then the other, especially during work hours

The internet by and large is a horrid venue to gauge true opinion anyway as the vocal minority tends to dominate in terms of both post count, activity and gatekeeping.

Not sure if that's russian bots mate as it's basically mirroring certain things trump and his incoming administration are on the record promoting.

Way more likely to be MAGA associated people and groups

I was scrolling through my Instagram suggested feed earlier, looking for some funny vids, then this popped up.
Thought it was going to funny at first…


But nope, I had to close Instagram, because that instantly killed my mood for humour. 🤦‍♂️
