I, for one, am shocked that moving from one corporate owned social media to another corporate owned social media didn't fundamentally change anything.

Well for one, most of the nazis stayed behind.

The current marketing strategy for Bluesky is to target disaffected left-of-center people.

This isn't because Bluesky is the one moral company in all of capitalisim. Instead, it's because they see an opportunity to grow their userbase (and income) by messaging to people who are likely to leave Twitter. It's no different than the thousands of companies that put up Pride Month banners and then a month later they take them down and continue donating to right-wing politicians.

Bluesky isn't your ally, they're just the current company that is pandering to you.

I'm not saying they're my ally or the solution to the internet. They're a platform that is currently not containing as many nazis.

If a bar I'm in has aggressively drunk dudes in it, I can just go to the next bar over and have a good time. That bar doesn't have to be fundamentally impervious to aggressive drunk dudes for this to be true and useful.

I mean, I've heard a enough words from Popper to know that there's only two amounts of Nazis: none and too many for me.

I don't think Bluesky has none

If you take it to such an extreme, there is undoubtedly at least one Nazi on Lemmy too.
