Trump regeert als een corrupte tiran met een fascistisch draaiboek in de hand, zegt hoofdredacteur @robwijnberg.bsky.social. Wie dat overdreven vindt, is óf gevaarlijk ongeïnformeerd, óf gevaarlijk naïef. Meer video's mogelijk maken? Steun ons en word nu lid van De Correspondent: corr.es/1a11ae

Op verzoek van onze lezers: de Engelse vertaling van de column van hoofdredacteur Rob Wijnberg. 'What was once our greatest and most important ally is now the most powerful and dangerous criminal organization in the world. Donald Trump rules as a corrupt tyrant with a fascist playbook in his hand.'

Fascisme krijgt ruimte door een hardnekkige misvatting: dat jij het niet kunt stoppen. Dat klopt niet. Gezamenlijk kunnen we ons weren tegen de woede en het wantrouwen die onze democratie overspoelen, schrijft @rosansmits.bsky.social. Dat komt neer op een simpele keuze – die keuze is aan jou.

The Dutch government is planning to make devastating budget cuts on higher #education and #science. 🧪 Reason for all Dutch universities to participate in a relay strike that passes from city to city. Tomorrow, it will be my university's turn. 🪧 @woinactie.bsky.social

"Science is overrated*! (*sarcasm alert!)
