Much of mainstream media is normalizing the destruction of our country. Public Enlightenment's Bluesky lists make it easy to get context for what's happening in the news.
What a great feature instead of having to find each individually.
I've always tried to seek information sources from a variety of sources but especially so in the last 5 or 6 years.
I like to hear different views because sometimes I've gotten it wrong or a new viewpoint shows me why or why not my view is accurate. I miss the days when we could have conversations with each other, with people who views differ from our own. I think it's an important part of strengthening ourselves and our country. Unfortunately the past few yrs they've been working really hard to divide us
Glad you feel that way. I've really been feeling like the last few years politics have turned into a minefield and we're afraid to talk to each other while has made things so much worse! They want us to hate each other because the whole divide and conquer thing.
We have to find some common ground to unite under, possibly the disdain for elon?
I don't know you in real life but I'm another cool kitty! Well, maybe not that cool
Hey, Citizen Raff! Substack doesn’t function the same way as Bluesky. I would love to make one for here, but it would mean that you’d just subscribed to about 50 Substacks and slog through whatever the creator chooses to post to Notes. People don’t use Notes here quite the same way that one automatically does on a dedicated microblogging site.
But I’m happy to be wrong and I’d love to build a couple lists like the Bluesky ones on here. Also, you should be on Bluesky! It’s one minor way you can participate against the oligarchs in the Information War they are waging upon us all.
Thanks for all the lists!

This is a beautiful sentiment and I’m so grateful you shared it. Is this my pal Kitty or a random Kitty with an equally great vibe?

Has anyone started using Public Enlightenment's Bluesky lists? Can you tell me how they are working for you?
Why does it have to be BlueSky, and not here?

🙂🙂 I'll try just to see. I never used Twitter, dumped FB years ago, and discovered Substack only through an email subscription. Thank you!
Yeah, let me know if you give it a shot. Trying to do what I can without being an actual newsroom myself.
