Nah, it's the Democratic parties fault. They could have prevented this. It's their job to do so!
Resonosity
Tim Walz explained it the other day at SXSW.
Politicians are like teachers. If it's Tim Walz's job to teach kids about geography, and then test them to check if he taught well, if the outcomes of that test show that half the class passes and half fails, then the blame for that is on the teacher. The teacher could have taught differently, teaching in different styles to adequately reach out to students where they're at in life and according to their specific learning styles. He might teach the same topic 5-6 different ways to capture as many people as possible.
The Harris-Walz campaign didn't do that. They had terrible messaging as soon as the DNC hit. When Harris brought Walz on, there was actual progressive momentum. But then Harris bent the knee to establishment Democrats, and they lost the election.
I will not believe that it's the voters' fault for the election outcome. If Democrats were sober enough to realize Trump's threat and wanted to really fire people up, they would have may the necessary changes to do so.
I'm shocked, really
You can still consider roots, stems, and leaves as vegetables.
Of course you have to be more stringent with fruits, and nuts/seeds imo are in a category of their own.
But Israel are the fascists in this scenario, yet they are doing the electricity curtailment...
Canada are the supposed "good guys", and they are refusing electricity trading with the fascist Americans, not the other way around
Definitely Skateparkge on this one
Bro I got that too!!!!!
Think of instances like Discord servers. Then each instance has communities that are like Discord channels.
Another way to think of instances is like email providers: you can select Google or @Gmail, Microsoft or @Live, etc. The same is true for the fediverse, where you can make Lemmy.World your "provider" of Lemmy content, etc. Each community in this analogy might be folders or labels you apply to your emails so you can sort them efficiently.
What's cool about the fediverse though is that no matter which instance you sign up to, you can see the content from communities of other instances as well. So if you have an account on Lemmy.World, you can see content from my instance, dbzer0, and all other instances.
Well, sometimes. Each instance allows federated relations in which posts, comments, upvotes, etc. are only shared between other federated instances if both the sending and receiving instances agree to that channel of information flow. If say Lemmy.World doesn't allow that information flow but dbzer0 does, then Lemmy.World won't see any data from dbzer0 while dbzer0 will see all data from Lemmy.World.
Think if someone posts a meme on Lemmy.World, if L.W federates with db0 and vice versa, Lemmings can see comments and upvotes from both servers to that meme post. If L.W. defederates but db0 doesn't, then L.W doesn't see db0 comments/upvotes but db0 sees L.W's and db0's. Also, db0 can respond/upvote L.W. users, but L.W. users won't see that data. Then if both L.W and db0 defederate from each other, neither instance sees content from each other, effectively blocking the entire instances from each other.
Federation is 2-sided. Both parties must agree to information flow in order to interact.
Defederation is 1-sided or 2-sided. If 1-sided, one party sees nothing from the other, while the other party sends data that will never be seen. Kinda pointless! If 2-sided, neither party sees anything and so they don't interact at all.
Hope that helps! Federation is an amazing tool when dealing with issues like xenophobia/racism and corporate shills like Meta's Threads trying to take over the FediVerse.
