I don't know whether it had a significant impact in Russia, but the rest of the world only knows/cares about the guy because he went back. Otherwise he'd just be yet another person murdered by Putin's regime.
Martyrdom. Navalny knew what it would mean to return; he also knew the risk of not returning (constantly trying to avoid shitty assassination attempts with collateral damage).
I personally subscribe to the When The Yoghurt Tookover eventuality.
Please stop, your embarrassing us.
The commenter is being needlessly pedantic like they aren't aware of the Civil Rights Movement at all. Even assuming they weren't one of the people that studied it, the USA's Civil Rights Movement is a common topic of study in history curricula in the UK because it has a significant cultural impact and is an excellent study of protest, the importance of civil rights, racial tensions, and context of the USA which is a dominant presence across the world.
The Civil Rights Movement had an incredibly low popular support before the Civil Rights Act was passed.
Protests are meant to disrupt. No progress is made unless you have a moderate and an extreme movement. That way the status quo compromises to the moderates to prevent the extreme from gaining ground.
So frankly, Just Stop Oil is too gentle. We won't see change until people get extreme on their protests against fossil fuels.
Listen old man, you're just forgetting the forgettable cartoons of your generation. Nothing has changed. If anything there is simply likely more art being made now, but in the same proportions of high-vs-low quality as before.
Please could you tell me how to contact your Ultimate Troll Warrior? Do I need to go on a quest?
As far as I understand, this isn't quite right (unless it's changed recently).
If A defeds B, then A no longer sends new posts to B, accepts comments or posts from B users, or receives new posts from B. Any comments from B users on A's old posts (made before defederation) are no longer acknowledged by A.
I think A users can still interact with B's posts, but then I haven't seen any beehaw users in forever. So perhaps not?
C can obviously still interact with both A and B posts normally. On posts from C, both A and B users can still interact.
So, in short defederation creates a hard wall preventing interaction between A and B. The only way A and B users can interact is on C.
It's unfortunate as beehaw would have benefitted from a uni-directional defederation (i.e. preventing .world users from posting on beehaw, but not preventing .beehaw users from posting on .world. Unfortunately, it's both.)
Nobody says hiccough.
Man, I'm still waiting for mine...
If only I wasn't my landlord...
Yeah, it should definitely be a circle.
