I'm arguing against a narrative that uses bigotry and fear for political gain
Bullshit. You made a racially charged statement: "the majority of arrests for these crimes are of Caucasians" then you're horrified when some calls you a racist and a statistics-liar ? Bro, YOU ARE A RACIST and it's as simple as that and as clear as day. Are you one of those "it's impossible to be a racist against white people" racists?
and you're turning that into me being the racist one?
I didn't turn it into anything. You made a racist statement. You clearly just thought it was fine because it was anti-white.

Elon is actively reposting white nationalist horseshit.
From what I can tell: that's true. However, what you call "white" I call "anti-racist". What you call "nationalism" I'd probably call "western culture". He seems concerned that the West is being overrun with culturally incompatible people and ideas. Anytime he or anyone else stands up for white folks or the West, there is always some hysterical useful idiot yelling "racism!" at the clouds. It appearently wasn't racism when applied to black or brown folks (then it's "equity") but if someone says a single nice thing about the West or about white folks, folks like you start your label printer up.
That's a pretty big source of angst.
I'll bet! It's hard when your primary way to shut people up (hysterical racism labels) start bouncing off folks and they start waking up to the fact that not everything that leftists hate is actually racism. I've also noticed that tactic is failing these days. They lost "retard" now they are losing on "racist" too. That's what happens when you really want Communism, but have no debate skills, so you just get intellectually lazy and start slinging "racism" everywhere you actually meant "not Marxist".

Bluesky doesn't have discussion groups. It just has posts and replies.
Why am I not surprised you're on Bluesky and know it's nuances? Yeah, okay, well... when they get to 1000 users maybe they will implement that feature.

This won't be shit or do shit. It's just going to have a few pissed off leftists complaining about having paid their "Fighter" fees and found they were in an empty echo chamber. X is still censored somewhat (nowhere near what it was) and still sucks in a cesspool-like way, but at least Parwal and his censor-crew got bounced out on their asses unceremoniously and ignominiously. That was well deserved, funny, and gave me much satisfaction to hear them crying on the internet about how they'd been dispossessed of their censor knobs. That's the real source of angst around/about Elon and X. It's pure jealously and rage over being bounced outta their perch as censors and propagandists.
Mother fuck censorship and censors and especially the ones that thought censorship during COVID, when we needed honest & accurate information the most, was a great idea. You fuckers RUINED any leftover trust for science doing that stupid shit.

I've written about 600,000 lines of C with AI so far this year. So, I'm basically writing more C faster than any political Rust asshole can do anything about it. Yes, OS code. Yes, desktop DE code. Yep. I'll still be doing it when Rust joins Swift, Ruby, ADA, COBOL, etc.. all the "fix" langs get abandoned. C stays.
