@brianmier247.bsky.social did a great interview with Liana Cirne with a very thought provoking explanation of freedom of expression in Brazil, where we see a commitment to balancing people’s fundamental human rights alongside protecting freedom of expression.

Think it is becoming a bit of a rhetorical deflection for them. It is quite absurd and the subterfuge is exhausting!
Julie Fredrickson @AlmostMedia • 12m We can invite you to the right wing kids table but I regret to tell you no one is particularly right wing and it's mostly just libertarians ... Just Some Guy @iamwhoisme • 7m The center right wing is now just 90s Democrats. Except, maybe, less enthusiastic about free trade. . . . Julie Fredrickson & @AlmostMedia Follow Im still enthusiastic about free trade (WTO needs to actually enforce some stuff with China tho)

gil duran is on bluesky @gilduran76 What's most shocking is how local media outlets have promoted and protected this person. This has led to an escalation of the terror tactics. 9:54 AM • 3/2/25 • 416 Views

HeterodoxThis is on Bluesky @ @HeterodoxThis No, the tweet that Wolf is referencing re: Omar (screenshot 1) is dated 5/6/24. Omar disclosed his on the "jJ Smith" account on 09/25/23. I posted to go on the record about Omar Ward's poor behavior towards critics & to express concern on 05/06/24. That's *after* Omar's reveal.

HeterodoxThis is on Bluesky Ô @HeterodoxThis Just for the record: Nobody "doxxed" anybody on either side of the debate about Omar Ward's targeted harassment and bullying of (especially women) who he disagrees with on policy issues. JConr put out years old Twitter info & Omar outed himself publicly on Twitter on 9/25/23. school and harassing a child. This account should be suspended immediately. @elonmusk Heterodox This Follow @HeterodoxThis Can we talk about Omar Ward @war24182236 who uses the alias jj smith on Twitter? Omar was convinced by Shellenberger's operative, Tom Wolf to begin posting dehumanizing videos of unhoused people and also substance users (often very young people) to Twitter starting in late 2022.

For the record sfmills did not doxx anyone and neither did I.
HeterodoxThis is on BI... @ • 5/14/24 Wolf- either produce the receipts you claim to have that | "doxxed" Omar Ward or admit that you lied. Wolf & Omar Ward need to take accountability & stop harassing women critics of their Shellenberger-endorsed, homelessploitation. We won't be intimidated & lied about. T Wolf @Twolfrecovery Doxxing for purposes of harrasment is illegal in California. Some people need to stop and look in the mirror as @HeterodoxThis did this very thing.@sf_mills did the same to me last year. If you wanna sue, go for it. I have receipts. HeterodoxThis is o... @ • 5/14/24 Replying to @HeterodoxThis @TheMarinaTimes and 2 others Both Omar & Tom need to stop harassing women critics and take some accountability. 12 Steppers believe accountability is the + cornerstone of recovery. Right?..

HeterodoxThis is on Bluesky @ @HeterodoxThis I want to go on the record to say that I am concerned about Omar Ward's attacks on female critics in particular which have a chilling effect on women who disagree with Omar's tactics and policy agenda. The attacks need to stop before they escalate into something more dangerous.

A Polarizing Figure Since he joined Twitter, the 53-year-old videographer's provocative tactics had made him a lightning rod for critics who said he exploited people at their worst moments and sometimes published information without verifying its accuracy. Sara Shortt, director of public policy at a homelessness nonprofit called HomeRise, said she believed that the videos may have had a traumatizing effect on some of his subjects. "Even if you believe this is a means to an end, using vulnerable people as fodder in that battle is inexcusable, frankly," Shortt said.

Sara has spoken with the press about Omar critically in the past in her official capacity at the time and Omar seems to think that justifies a homophobic attack on her. sfstandard.com/2023/06/23/his….

Bluesky HeterodoxThis is on Blu... @ • 5/6/24 A disturbing pattern with Omar is the way he goes after female critics of the harsh homelessness policies that he endorses. He sent this d.m.to@sf_mills: "I heard you smell like fish here's one for you" Picture of Omar Ward on a boat holding up an enormous dead fish. "Naw go and post those finish promoting me"

HeterodoxThis is on Blu... @ • 5/6/24 He spreads falsehoods about homeless service providers on Twitter without consequence or correction. But this doesn't seem to bother Tom Wolf in the slightest who credits Omar Ward with changing the narrative on homelessness. sfstandard.com/2023/06/23/his.. After a woman threw a brick in the direction of city officials during an outdoor meeting at United Nations Plaza in May, he alleged on Twitter that she had been pushed to do so by the Coalition on Homelessness. But after he was shown evidence that ran contrary to his account of the incident, he acknowledged to The Standard in a May interview that he was incorrect in publishing that accusation. "This one slipped by me," he said. He did not, however, put up a correction or retraction.

Bluesky HeterodoxThis is on Bluesky Ô @HeterodoxThis Rene Colorado, the head of the Tenderloin Merchants Association says Omar threatened him and his group with a gun. Omar has also been arrested under suspicion of dealing drugs but with Omar somehow charges never seem to stick? It is notable how that keeps happening. Clip from News article in SF Standard: by The Standard. Police arrested the videographer under suspicion of assault, but he was never charged. According to court records, the videographer was previously arrested under suspicion of dealing drugs but the district attorney never sought charges Algainst him. 12:28 PM • 5/6/24 • 416 Views

Doomloop Dispatch @doomloopdisp UPDATE: this real harassment. He not only left a creepy note on my windshield, he shoved a sock in my gas tank. Thankfully I'm already talking to a lawyer. But let's clear: this happened because those right wing psychos in S.F. cheered him on after he harassed @Wagnerian. @Dscot510 Pictures which will be described in upcoming images.

Edward Coristine/Mr. ‘Big Balls’ who is currently a senior U.S. State Department advisor.
"Giving Elon Musk's goon squad access to systems that control payments to Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid and other key federal programs is a national security nightmare," Senator Ron Wyden, an Oregon Democrat and a member of the Senate Intelligence Committee, told Bloomberg News about his general concerns regarding the DOGE team. "Every hour new disturbing details emerge to prove that these guys have no business anywhere close to sensitive information or critical networks."
