Present thought
Mastodon's the right model. But to be truly *useful* politcally - the Bluesky/Mastodonian idea of "we will make our safe space over here" might be pleasant for many and that's fine
But they're not healthy for useful political discourse, which is often ugly, but generates the necessary talk.
The discussions I'm seeing on Twitter/threads e.g. left v. liberal are finally getting "good." (among others)
