Mark Kuban says Bluesky has “raised Ruder and more hated” and warned that “lack of diversity of thought” on the platform is pushing users to return to Elon Musk’s X, social network previously known as Twitter.
The billionaire’s entrepreneur and the long technology enthusiast had been one of Bluesky’s most visible champions, but now says that the base of the user’s main platform has created an Echo’s hostile room where they oppose or even the nuances of nuanced are angry.
“The lack of diversity of thought here is really damaging use,” Kubani wrote this week in a series of critical posts.
“Once there was an excellent gift and discuss politics and news. No more. It doesn’t have to be that way.”
Cuban, a technology billionaire who once owned the Dallas Mavericks of the NBA and who recently ended a long blow as one of the “sharks” investors in showing the “Shark Tank” hit reality, posted a link to a part of the Washington Post opinion entitled: “Bubble Bluesky damages their liberals and reasons.
In part, columnist Megan McARDLE argued that the left -hand user base of the platform promotes a political silicon. Cuban agreed with the appreciation of the part.
“Moderation and blocking tools here are so advanced if you see someone you don’t want to see here, just block them. Don’t attack them,” he added.
He supported Kamala Harris during the 2024 presidential elections, but did not donate to her campaign, joined Bluesky at the end of 2024 and posted nearly 2,000 times since.
His first post – “less hated greeting” – placed a hopeful tone. But since then that optimism has faded.
“The commitment went from a big convoy for many topics, to agree with me or you are a Nazi fascist,” Cuban wrote. “We are forcing posts on X.”
He said that even small disputes have been fulfilled with great hostility.
“Even if you agree with 95% of what a person is saying about a topic, if there is a point that you can call more a gray area, they will call you a fascist, etc.,” Kubani wrote.
According to the Bloomberg Billionaire Index, Cuban’s net value stands approximately $ 8.35 billion.
Some users did not kindly deal with Cuban’s criticism – and they made their feelings in soft, often tearful.
In response to his concerns, one user wrote, “Go delete your crocodile tears with one hundred with two of you. People are over the idea of ’cold’ billionaires.”
Another said, “A man if I were as rich as you would surely be the least ap – s”, while a third simply said, “F -ky leave then, p – s”.
However, another post, which Cuban also reprinted, read: “Like like you, as a billionaire, are a despised bastard and we want you to stop him and the big business here and just leave.”
Bluesky began as a decentralized alternative to social media and without an explosive increase in the consequences of the full approval of Elon Musk of Donald Trump’s re -election campaign in late 2024.
Trump’s musk support caused an exodus from X, running millions of users supported in Liberal in Bluesky in search of a quieter, more ideologically aligned environment.
Between November 2024 and May 2025, Bluesky’s user base tripled – from approximately 10 million to over 30 million – according to Pew Research Center. This analysis also revealed that many of the most prominent platform news influences lean politically.
Bluesky General Director Jay Graber accepted the politically run migration in a June 4 interview with Peter Kafka to Vox.
“People people who want to try something new. Peoplers people who find their community here,” she said.
“I think there are generally both people looking for something and people looking to get away from something.”
But for Cuban, that community seems to have returned from the inside. He now worries the platform is discouraging the debate and becoming a digital room echoed.
The post has requested comment from Bluesky.
