Anyone else feel the weirdness of this unprecedented time?

26. I think I can answer some of these things:

Anyone else feel the weirdness of this unprecedented time?

Yep. It's thick in the air.

I don't understand the rush to yet another social networking site (Bluesky) - I don't use such tools - DU is enough. Why?

Users of Twitter are abandoning it due to the the way it is run, who it is run by, and new terms of service. The closest/best replacement is Bluesky.

I don't understand why the left has never (aside from Air America) put any resources in countering the massive right wing propaganda machine.

We don't consume data in the same way as the right. Sure, there are left-leaning talk shows and talking heads, but things like Air America never took off in a way that would compete.

Things I am waiting for - clarity on what "the resistance" will look like. How are our Dem politicians going to fight this mess? What part are we going to play - not to just stay in an echo chamber and scream, but actually DO?

I think we are all in this position. A lot of it is waiting to see the lay-of-the-land. I expect to see more things put in place to protect programs and people before Jan 20.

Lost and wandering in the wilderness here. Wondering how this could have possibly happened. Wondering how so many people have lost their minds.

People looking for answers found what they thought they were looking for in a cult of misinformation and fear.
