Hm. Mir ging es um die Form der Kommunikation. Hier diskutieren offensichtlich reflektierte Menschen, da fand ich deinen Ausdruck mit der „absoluten Unwissenheit“ einfach ziemlich drüber. Mein Kommentar enthält keinerlei Wertung über Mansour.

Oh Mann. Staatliche Fördergelder fließen manchmal auf seltsamen Wegen.

Oha, muss das sein? „Absolute Unwissenheit“ ist ein krasser Vorwurf. Und Leas Kommentar ist sachlich nicht derart falsch, dass so ein Anschnauzer berechtigt wäre. Deine Anmerkung, viele würden sich besser auskennen als Mansour, ist auch kein geeignetes Argument gegen Leas Kommentar.

The hardest part after finding out you’re autistic?

Realising how much of your life was shaped by fear.

Fear of rejection.

Fear of being too much.

Fear of losing love.

The work isn’t becoming fearless - it’s learning what deserves your energy now.

Krasses Bild, krasse Politik. Seit der letzten Kohl-Regierung war mir Politik in Deutschland mehr so fremd wie jetzt.

Vorschieben, Frauen & Mädchen schützen zu wollen, als würde sexualisierte Gewalt vor allem von Migranten ausgehen, ist so hanebüchen wie perfide. Es ist rassistisch und misogyn zugleich - und eine klassische Erzählung von Rechtsextremen, die im Übrigen nicht auf "Schutz", sondern Besitzanspruch fußt

“We’re here peacefully protesting, looking as ridiculous as we can, just so maybe we appeal to the president because he’s a ridiculous leader that is normalizing abuse of power. And we cannot stand and act like nothing is happening.” 🦄

"Mr. President sir the idea is you're constantly flying around in a big jet filled with your own shit in it. Like human shit. Anyways you're wearing a little crown in your little shitmobile and you're dumping the shit out. I think people will like it."

Proud papa moment: my son J published a letter in the @nytimes.com today (in print tomorrow) on the need to think our definitions of autism.

This is what democracy looks like. #NoKings

White words on a black background read: 50+ Immigration agents have the authority to detain whom they reasonably suspect are in the country illegally. We found more than 50 Americans who were held after agents questioned their citizenship. They were almost all Latino. ~130 Agents also can arrest citizens who allegedly interfered with or assaulted officers. We compiled cases of about 130 Americans, including a dozen elected officials, accused of assaulting or impeding officers. ~20 Among the citizens detained are nearly 20 children, including two with cancer.

Hi, I'm the ProPublica reporter who's been tracking an unusual stat: U.S. citizens grabbed by immigration agents.

I did it because the government isn’t.

This is what I found.

I bang on about this a lot: I think the combination of a global pandemic, underregulated internet/SM, collapse/corruption of trustworthy media, plus now unregulated genAI, is a wildly toxic environment for radicalisation & mental health. We see the results of that in our politics & lives every day

abiralsahlani on Instagram: "The extreme right in the Parliament initiated a debate called ”time to end mass migration now - protect our women and children”.Thi…" The extreme right in the Parliament initiated a debate called ”time to end mass migration now - protect our women and children”.This debate should never have happened. Because it’s wrong. Wrong. Wrong. 1. There is a 66% drop in asylum applications 2. Majority of men who commit sexual crimes are EU-nationals according to EU wide data 3. I have my own voice. Don’t you dare claim to represent it. The gender-based violence is a man problem. It’s not a migration outcome.View all 5,779 comments

mic drop.

Abir Al-Sahlani (schwedische Politikerin und Teil des EU Parlaments) erklärte kürzlich den Anwesenden, warum ihre Debatte "time to end mass migration now - protect our women and children" auf allen Ebenen Falsch ist.

„The common denominator here is spelled m-e-n, men.“

Deimos, the smaller of Mars's moons, is slightly bigger than Cardiff, and has an average escape velocity of around 5.7m/s: a little over 20km/h.

This is low enough that an athlete could jump off into space if they got a running start - but they couldn't, because the gravity's too low for good grip.

One week from right now, millions of Americans will gather in every state for the biggest day of peaceful protest in American history. Join your local No Kings Day event to make it clear that We The People won’t cower in response to Trump’s authoritarian takeover: www.nokings.org?SQF_SOURCE=i...

Friends and comrades made a crowdfunding page for my family.

It’s really hard to post this. I know that there are a lot of other important issues asking for money but things have gotten to the point where we need to open ourselves up to your support.

Thank you for your consideration.

The Trump administration follows the German Nazi‘s playbook from the 1930ies: Dehumanize the opposition. Accuse them for all kinds of crime and violence. Invent and exaggerate crimes. Use this as a pretext for extreme ‚countermeasures‘. Finally proclaim a new order to ‚get things under control‘.

the best answer i got for this:

Stephen Miller @StephenM X.com The issue before is now is very simple and clear. There is a large and growing movement of leftwing terrorism in this country. It is well organized and funded. And it is shielded by far-left Democrat judges, prosecutors and attorneys general. The only remedy is to use legitimate state power to dismantle terrorism and terror networks.

First they came for the Radical left
And I did not speak out
Because I was not a leftist
Then they came for the Socialists
And I did not speak out
Because I was not a Socialist

So etwas ist mir schon Mal passiert, aber erst mit dem Video wurde mir bewusst, dass es Teil von Diskriminierungserfahrung ist, das Gefühl zu haben, lachen zu müssen. Obwohl es klar ist, was gerade passiert.

History time, I guess:

Ich habe vor kurzem ein insta-Video von einem schwarzen Anwalt in den USA gesehen.

Er hat erzählt, wie er über seine eigene Erniedrigung lachen muss, wenn rassistische Richter ihn z.b. für die angeklagte Person halten (weil er schwarz ist) und nicht für den Anwalt, und Witze darüber machen.

The Trump administration now clearly is a regime that feels free to kill.

OMG. German politcal editor here. I cannot believe how much this resembles the politics and language of the German nazi party in the 1930ies, and it‘s not obvious to everyone. I am horrified.

[Scene is ANCIENT GREECE - where SOCRATES and PLATO and others are sitting round, thinking] 1 SOCRATES: Plato.. PLATO: Yes Socrates? 2 SOCRATES: Can you tell me, are you human? PLATO: Why… yes, Socrates 3 SOCRATES: And would you agree, Plato, that a human knows what a chariot is? PLATO: Um, yep 4 SOCRATES: So you can tell me, then 5 [Socrates produces a papyrus, showing a drawing of the corner of a chariot wheel] SOCRATES: *Is that a chariot*? 6 PLATO: Well that’s more just a bit of wheel 7 SOCRATES: So not a *chariot*. PLATO: No. 8 SOCRATES: [Producing another papyrus with the full drawing of the chariot, chopped into boxes] So if a man were challenged to “tap the boxes containing chariots to prove you’re human” when he was just trying to check his ClubCard points... *where could he tap*? 9 PLATO: Well you can’t tap any of them really 10 SOCRATES: So are we not human?
