Happy New Year to everyone. I am forever grateful for another amazing year with my wonderful mentees and collaborators at and beyond the SCAN Unit. And I look forward to many more good moments in 2026. But my biggest wish is the return of peace and some sort of sanity. I try to be optimistic

“Scientists reject the idea that race is biologically real. The claim that race is a “biological reality” cuts against modern scientific knowledge” theconversation.com/race-isnt-a-...

Race isn’t a ‘biological reality,’ contrary to recent political claims − here’s how scientific consensus on race developed in the 20th century
An executive order critiques the idea that race is a human invention. But that’s exactly what modern science supports.

🔥🔥🔥 Absichtlich Eskalation statt Dialog?! Warum das? 💡💡💡 Weil es Aufmerksamkeit bringt, von komplexeren Themen ablenkt und eine „Wir-gegen-die“-Mentalität befeuert. Populismus lebt davon. Fall nicht drauf rein! #btw2025
Text: Schon gewusst? Mit diesen 24 Aha Momenten entlarvst du populistische Manipulation im Wahlkampf 

4. Eskalation statt Dialog Text: wusstest du dass populist*innen Konflikte absichtlich verschärfen? Das machen sie , um Ängste zu schüren und Feindbilder zu schaffen. Text: die Debatte wird bewusst zur Eskalation gebracht. Probleme bleiben ungelöst, und die Menschen verunsichert und frustriert. Diese Gefühle nutzt der Populismus gezielt für seine Zwecke Aufforderung den Post zu teilen
