„Machtergreifung“. Diesen Leuten ist die Erinnerungskultur nichts als Machtinstrument, aus dem man einen politischen oder finanziellen Vorteil zieht, bei Bedarf ist ihnen keine Obszönität groß genug.

we are sending humans to countries they have never lived in, where often they are thrown right into jails without having committed a crime. This is being done in our name. The Supreme Court is illegitimate.

„Mit solchen Worten schadet man der Erinnerungskultur mehr als der Linken. Man kann schließlich nicht auf der einen Seite die Singularität des Holocausts betonen und auf der anderen Seite Auschwitz als tagespolitisches Kleingeld benutzen, wenn man nur Elif Eralp bekämpfen will“

Das Wichtigste, was ich sagen wollte: "Es war ein toller Abend! Jüdische & palästinensische Genossen haben zusammen gefeiert, es wurde auf türkisch und kurdisch gesungen, trans Leute haben neben Frauen mit Hijab gejubelt. Die Stimmung war genau diese Neuköllner Mischung, die so wunderbar ist."

I'm just sick to death of being constantly demoralized—not by the terrible things that keep happening, but by our contemptible failure to meet the moment from a moral perspective. Indifference, equivocation, appeasement, cynical betrayal—it's all so utterly corrosive. Fucking enough already!

Nach ihrem Footsie-Spiel mit der AfD in Sachsen-Anhalt hat das BSW sowohl in Berlin als auch in MVP gescheitert. Tschüssi!
MVP results. BSW under the 5 percent threshold. CDU too. :)Berlin results. die Linke dominates.

I really hate the framing of these stories as "an AI agent broke out and hacked something." No, an inadequate sandbox meant that a powerful and unpredictable computer program was set loose on the open internet by the company that designed it. The agency isn't with the "AI agent", it's with the firm

Happy birthday to David Wojnarowicz, groundbreaking artist, writer & activist, who raged raged raged against inequity and injustice at every turn. If he hadn’t died of AIDS, like so many leading lights of his generation, he would have been 72 years old today (thread)

not the first to make this observation but it's a real problem that the place where we throw lots of money at smart people to solve problems is full of antisocial weirdos! (he says as something of an antisocial weirdo himself)

In a former life I worked in geospatial technology and specifically on procedures for handling disputed names and borders, so it’s sort of bleakly funny that the rest of the country now has to think about that nightmare of a subject. There is no clean solution. Every option will enrage people.

Half of the parties that have refused to work with the AfD on democratic principle that they are enemies of the constitution have also spent the past decade saying they are right about immigration, gender, sexuality, and the NGO and cultural scene. The firewall was formal but not substantive.

The ”firewall” against the far right in Germany has not failed. The firewall was meant to prevent the far right from gaining power. The failure was to effectively govern in a manner as to undermine and shrink the far right with the time bought by the firewall.

Yes. These are high-info voters who've been coming out for off-year races to unwind the Walker takeover since 2018. Evers had to convince them that Crowley, who dropped out bc his first campaign sucked, had the better chance of winning them a trifecta and making all the work worth it.

Here is my most important political issue for Wisconsin: the state gave a huge incentive package for Haribo to open its U.S. factory there BUT THERE IS NO FACTORY STORE. The European factories have factory stores. I would cross state lines for a diverse (hopefully international) Haribo offering.
