Actually previously all I had done was import my blocks from this lemmy account. Hadn’t actually blocked someone the normal way.

Wait!

All the sudden now they do?? I wonder why?

Maybe it takes a couple hours to propagate?

Lets test this. I’ll block you on my piefed ui and see if I can see you on the voyager one logged into the piefed account.

(will unblock after obviously)

Who cares if they flee. The people shall then take control of their assets they leave behind!

The real estate, factories, etc they leave behind. Leave it to the people!

If your lucky. Often it’s just “I’m too overworked and busy to take you seriously”.

Or “I don’t believe you / think you are exaggerating”.

yep its all ✨infrastructural inertia✨

because on paper thorium and fusion are both way ahead of uranium but the world has invested billions of dollars over 80 years into creating infrastructure for uranium.

Thorium is the Fusion of Fission.

Since the 60’s we’ve been told that thorium tech is just around the corner and it will replace uranium.

I’m a very principled man. After much research, I have decided to boycott every country on earth. (/s, wish this was possible)

He looks like an absolute badass

They really chose the worst photo to make him look bad.

Fateh's higher education bill included tuition-free public colleges and universities and tribal colleges for students from families whose income is less than $80,000 a year.[18] It also included an increase to Hunger Free Campus grants,[19]emergency assistance grants.[20]

Fateh was the chief Senate author of a bill to provide minimum wages and worker protections for drivers for rideshare companies such as Uberand Lyft.

Not everything has to be about earning money.

Early youtube was beautiful precisely because it was normal people making videos as a hobby, not trying to earn money.

A new Yahoo/YouGov survey finds that about twice as many U.S. adults say they would vote for a candidate with Mamdani's platform (50%) than say they would not (26%). Could it be a blueprint for Democrats elsewhere?

There’s a good reason for this, and it’s not (just) that their beliefs were insincere. The whole point of thinking about structures like capitalism, patriarchy, or white supremacy is recognizing structural power beyond the intentions or beliefs of any individual actor. The problem with capitalism isn’t that particular business owners are greedy, it’s that the system of private ownership requires exploitation and poverty. The problem with patriarchy isn’t that all men happen to be evil and all non-men happen to be saints. The problem is the system that secures wealth, power, and safety for one gender at the expense of others.

We should think about state power in the same systematic way. It’s true—some politicians are especially terrible, just like some bosses are particularly noxious and some men are exceptionally patriarchal. But there are structural reasons for all men to take advantage of the privileges of patriarchy, whether we’re personally bigoted or not. Similarly, there are structural forces pressuring leftists in elected office to abandon their positions, entirely independent of their degree of personal ideological commitment
