Bluesky Issues Warning to Any Users Celebrating Charlie Kirk Assassination

The crux of the article, emphasis mine. "If you spent your Wednesday absorbing thousands of posts on Bluesky—as I did, for whatever reason—it would be difficult to make an honest case that the platform’s users were celebrating en masse. There were indeed a lot of people doing that. Just not close to a majority, let alone 'every post.'"
