Der Blick auf die Zentralbankunabhรคngigkeit im globalen Vergleich - in meinem Artikel habe ich einen deep dive in die Geschichte der Norm gemacht, der vielerorts Institution geworden ist. Ist es auch eine Institution der Demokratie?

1/ A longtime Wired editor just wrote a mush-brained essay about how he totally missed the political rot of Silicon Valley (& still doesn't get it).

But in the late 1990s, a Wired journalist warned of a toxic ideology bubbling up from tech. Paulina Borsook has largely been erased. Let's change that

Trump Signs Order Targeting Antifa Movement

Trump stuft "die Antifa" als Terrororganisation ein. Da die Antifa aber nur ein loses, fรผhrerloses Netzwerk und keine formelle Organisation ist, geht es ihm um etwas anderes: alle Antifaschist:innen , alle Trump-Gegner:innen als Individuen potenziell zu kriminalisieren. Alle sollen Angst haben.

Altered "Jason Figured it Out" meme from the good place

Screenshot from The Good Place Season 2.
Panel 1: Jason's Face is replaced with Tucker Carlson, and the caption "I know this sounds Crazy, but I think Trump's Doin' A Fascism."
Panel 2: Michael, to Janet "*Tucker* figured it out? *Tucker*?!"
Panel 3: Michael, to Janet "This is a real low point. Yeah, this one hurts."
