Are you on Bluesky? Bettie Feb 2025 #11

ALL of our elected officials communicate there, not to mention ALL of the major journalists bigtree Feb 2025 #4

All of my elected officials are on Bluesky too. n/t FSogol Feb 2025 #13

I take your point, but you can't find the same variety of posts which feature them, though bigtree Feb 2025 #18

Mine are not. Only about 1/2 of them LeftInTX Feb 2025 #53

If there is an elected Dem who is not posting everything on Bluesky, I question Bluetus Feb 2025 #39

Exactly.. I was a long holdout Cha Feb 2025 #46

Those who are making violent plans don't do it on Twitter Bluetus Feb 2025 #40

Every elected Democrat posts from there. Passages Feb 2025 #44

If they are not also posting on Bluesky, they are fools Bluetus Feb 2025 #45

That is your opinion, yes. It is not about one or the other, they are on both. Passages Feb 2025 #47

Then you're boycotting the messages of a lot of liberals and Democrats who post only or mostly on Twitter. highplainsdem Feb 2025 #10
