This diagram clearly illustrates why the Spanish population,led by Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez, is increasingly aligning with Russian disinformation narratives regarding Russia's allies, such as the Islamist regime in Iran, Hamas,China, as well as Russian imperialism itself.

Der hybride Krieg der MAGA–Bewegung gegen die Bundesrepublik, mithilfe der AfD, nimmt Fahrt auf und wird hier noch viel zu wenig beachtet.

Sehr interessanter Aspekt, den Richard Herzinger hier beleuchtet: Die Kampagne gegen Frauke Brosius-Gersdorf ist von Kreml-hörigen bzw. -gesteuerten Personen und Organisationen gestartet worden. Das bedeutet in der Konsequenz, dass diese Putinisten mittlerweile Einfluss bis tief in die Union haben.

In a horrifying article about the dangers of Teslas, one point stands out: Teslas automatically disengage self-driving mode <1 second before an imminent crash--not enough time for the driver to react, but enough for Tesla to deny responsibility for fatal crashes, since self-driving "wasn't engaged."
The real surprise came after the experiment. Fred Lambert, who writes for the blog Electrek, pointed out the same autopilot disengagement that the NHTSA had documented. “Autopilot appears to automatically disengage a fraction of a second before the impact as the crash becomes inevitable,” Lambert noted.

One Democratic lawmaker (Melissa Hortman) and their spouse killed, another one (John Hoffmann) and spouse in critical condition. Targeted shootings in two separate Minnesota locations. Both the state Senate (Hoffmann) and House (Hortman) are currently tied between Democrats and the GOP.

Jesus. The juxtaposition of these two posts back to back is just...
10:30am:

"Brevard County Sheriff Sheriff Wayne Ivey: "If you throw a brick, a firebomb, or point a gun at one of our deputies, we will be notifying your family where to collect your remains at, because we will kill you graveyard dead."

10:49am:


law enforcement officials say they made a proactive check at Rep. Hortman's home after a lawmaker who lived nearby was shot and found a "police vehicle in the driveway with emergency lights and what appeared to be a police officer at the door coming out of the house." He was actually the gunman.

Those that parrot the Kremlin line of "Russia has no intention of going further into Europe" are usually the same that said "Russia only wants Crimea" or that are now saying "Russia will stop if we just let them have 5 regions of Ukraine". When will they learn?

In case you're wondering, authoritarians use this strategy of escalation to manufacture crisis, provoke outrage, then use the reaction to justify repression. It’s not about restoring order, it's about creating a spectacle of chaos they can claim only they can control.

People won’t trust courts or parties. They won’t believe evidence. They’ll be certain their side is right, no matter what reality says. That’s not disagreement. That’s epistemic fracture. And once it sets in, it’s nearly impossible to reverse.

If we continue down this path, ignoring the collapse of shared reality, failing to rebuild the systems that stabilise truth, we will see democratic norms erode from the inside out. Not in a single catastrophic moment, but in a thousand small compromises.

We built 20th-century democracies on the assumption that truth could be verified, public discourse could be deliberated, and those in power could be held accountable. But the system those assumptions relied on, gatekeepers, shared facts, institutional trust, are in decline, and deservedly so.

The conditions that have led to what’s happening in the US today exist in democracies around the world. They are an inevitable outcome of our collective failure to adapt to fundamental changes in the information ecosystem on which our democracies were originally built.
