They’ve been saying that since Cheeto ran for office the second time and look where we are. 🙄

I’m not trying to “Pooh pooh” anything, but I do wonder if the old way of doing things is really effective in today’s political arena?

Politicians these days only seem to care about re-election and since people now vote party over individual, I’m having a hard time seeing the effectiveness of such demonstrations. Other then letting like minded people know that other like minded people exist. Something that I think social media has been doing for a long time. But I don’t think politicians really fear this kind of thing anymore. I think they know that people are entrenched in their parties and once it comes down to filling out the ballot, they wont care who the person is as much as they do that they are voting for “their side”.

But maybe I’m wrong, which is why I’m participating today regardless of my ignorance.

And I’m not saying “don’t bother”. Try everything you can. I’m just saying that maybe it’s time we figure out new ways to do things?

Am I the only one who was thinking “Robert Paulson“?

I’ve been testing it this morning. Obviously not a lot of content so I’ve been uploading some old content of my own.

It is VERY bare bones. Still needs a lot of work and effort. You can’t even upload an avatar yet. And the character limit in your bio is only 80? Should be at least 250.

It’s just going to take some patience. It’s only (I think?) two people working on this? So development is going to be sloooooooooow.

Still, I think it’s worth the effort. Alternatives to centralized apps are important. Social media deserves to be in the hands of the people and the more we can take away from centralized services, the better.
