Yeah, it goes to our instance first. But then it's supposed to be sent to the other instances we are federated with too. When I go to those instances' web addresses, not via Blahaj, I don't see the article.
It's good to know someone else had this problem though. It happened to me once before, but reposting fixed the issue so I think that case was just lag. edit: typos
How long have you had this?
Like military time or a count down or is it colon separated?
What does the text look like for you?
If Trump wins our democracy is over. The way to stop this is to Vote Blue!
In our democracy, we have a first-past-the-post system. This means only two parties, Democrats and Republicans, have any chance at winning.

The electoral college favors Republicans. Specifically it favors low population areas, which tend to vote Republican. High population centers tend to vote Democrat. Democrats need more votes to overcome this advantage.
A majority of people agree with Democrats on issues. If everyone voted, Democrats would win in a landslide.

Not voting and third party votes detracts from votes that could have gone to Democrats.
The strategy is tell everyone the polls are bogus and then vote in record numbers.
Exactly, that's why this election is so important. The only way there will be consequences for the fascists is if they are out of power.
The plan is for people to vote in record numbers. Be vocal! Vote Blue! =)
I finally got it to federate. I had to post an article for CNN and then edit to post it to what I wanted. This is the link I used and then switched out:

I also tried these, but they had the same problem and wouldn't federate: https://www.usnews.com/news/elections https://projects.fivethirtyeight.com/2024-election-forecast/
If anyone has an explanation for this I would be very interested to hear it. Are there exclude/include lists for certain websites on certain communities?
I guess it wasn't a me problem or a blahaj problem, but it's weird that two different politics communities on different instances had the same problem.
