Was mich wirklich wütend macht?

Dass der AfD-Verbotsantrag nicht gestellt wird.

Verrückt. Das Grundgesetz hat uns aus sehr guten Gründen Mittel in die Hand gegeben, um die nächste Machtergreifung zu verhindern. Und es wird einfach NICHTS gemacht.

Beschämend.

Der Faschismus lacht laut.

Herr Musk wettert jetzt gegen Wikipedia und beeinflusst den deutschen Wahlkampf.

Sein Ziel ist klar - alle Nachrichten und Regierungen kontrollieren.

Liebe @ec.europa.eu: bitte einmal alle Möglichkeiten der Regulierung von X prüfen und anwenden, solange wir noch können!

Recently took a peek at Twitter and the disinformation is getting substantially more dangerous. Someone could get killed.

The tactics of constantly repeating outright lies, targeting specific people, repurposing years-old footage and presenting them as new is getting to another level. It’s scary.

COVID-19 is a leading cause of death in children and young people in A new study led by researchers at the University of Oxford’s Department of Computer Science has found that, between 2021 and 2022, COVID-19 was a leading cause of death in children and young people

It still astonishes me that more people in politics and our media pretend to be concerned about kids having missed school than kids having been killed or sickened by Covid.

Just a reminder that in 2019, RFK Jr.'s anti-vaccine misinformation campaign helped cause a measles outbreak in Samoa that killed 83 people, mostly kids.

Do you really want him to lead the Department of Health and Human Services?

Elizabeth Warren asks Trump to set conflict-of-interest rules for Musk The letter from the Massachusetts senator comes as Musk has taken a prominent role inside Trump’s orbit

Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Massachusetts) wrote a letter to President-elect Donald Trump on Monday to request clear and transparent conflict-of-interest rules that would bind Elon Musk, the world’s richest man, during his role as a top Trump adviser.

With Elon Musk, an unelected plutocrat, six weeks from becoming co-President of the United States, many people are just starting to research who he really is—that is, beyond the basics most already know.

Or, rather, think they know—as most of those basics are untrue.

This thread reveals the truth.

It would be reasonable to investigate if Musk lied on federal immigration forms in the 1990s—as the forms still exist and we know exactly when he was off student status

If found to have committed federal misdemeanors on those forms, he should face at least the usual penalty of a 10-year deportation

Nicht, dass ich Doom und Gloom verbreiten möchte, aber kümmert sich aktuell jemand um die bevorstehende Finanzkrise, falls die USA in die Zahlungsunfähigkeit gehen? Dafür, dass die PayPal-Connection dies seit Jahren aktiv vorantreibt, hört man erstaunlich wenig darüber🤔

CDC infection control body rejects the science on airborne transmission HICPAC continues to stonewall efforts to evolve infection control guidance to match updated information about COVID and other common viruses.

In 2021, COVID was shown to be fully airborne. Yet for years, hospitals have failed to upgrade infection control measures. Bodies like the WHO and CDC are leaving HCW and patients in danger by failing to match recommendations to the science.

CIDRAP: "Almost a third of preteens, teens with long COVID still not recovered at 2 years, study shows"

Guardian: "Most teenagers recover from long Covid after 2 years, study shows"

That headline is a choice. The news here is really that 29% of kids with #LongCovid still had symptoms at 2 years.

„Psychoterror“: Neue Zahlen zeigen, wie Kinder unter Lehrkräften leiden Auf die Frage, was ihnen an ihrer Schule nicht gefällt, nennen die meisten Schüler ihre Lehrkräfte. Eine junge Lehrerin weiß, woran das liegen könnte.

Soso. Ach was. Psychterror durch Lehrkräfte? Kann doch nicht sein! Mir wird ja immer noch versichert, dass so etwas ausschließlich von Eltern ausgeht und die Schulpräsenz die einzige glücksspendende Art des Aufwachsens ist...🤷‍♀️ #Bildungsalternativen #Homeschooling
