How come I can’t see all comments in some (maybe all?) posts on Lemmy? - Lemmy.world

In the screenshot I’ve included, you can see that the number of comments for the post is 20+. However, I only see 2 comments when I look at the post. Is this just a byproduct of federation? I don’t think I’ve blocked any instances yet, but is it possible the comments are from instances blocked my lemmy.world? Also, I use Memmy on iOS; could that be the cause? Appreciate any insight!

These Nazis Want to Turn New England Into a White Ethnostate - Lemmy.world

Richland voters ousting 3 school officials who voted to defy WA mask mandate - Lemmy.world

A community near Hanford (if you’ve seen Oppenheimer, Hanford is the nuclear production complex that produced plutonium for the Manhattan Project [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hanford_Site]) has voted to oust three school board members this week. Back in February of 2021, trio of members voted to defy the mask mandate in effect in Washington State, throwing the school district into chaos and forcing the superintended to close all schools for two days. What makes this kind of a big deal is that, while Washington State has been very blue for many years, this community is located in the much redder eastern side of the state, and votes consistently Republican each election. Now, school board elections are supposed to be non-partisan, but we all know how the Republican party has started endorsing candidates in these non-partisan elections, and this one was no different. As someone from this community, it often feels hopeless when the candidates I vote for lose by considerable margins. This particular election shows that there IS hope, given the right amount of motivation and turnout (this is a BIG turnout for a non-presidential election!). I’m proud of what this effort accomplished!
