An den Berliner Landesregierungen war die Linke in den letzten 25 Jahren immerhin 17 Jahre verantwortlich beteiligt. 2002 👉 Rot-Rot 2006 👉 Rot-Rot 2016 👉 Rot-Rot-Grün 2021 👉 Rot-Grün-Rot 10 Jahre habe ich eine Landesregierung geführt. Das war also Verrat? 👇 Irre. 🤯

What is democratic backsliding?

White male privilege on full display. The experience of the average woman, person of colour, trans/non-binary person - basically anyone who isn't a white man - certainly differs substantially. But why take that into account?

Men, I promise you, you don't need to, in any way, try and defend someone who literally admitted to sexual assault. Just don't do it. Don't even think about it.

"We don't acknowledge the fact that the sensible centre is somewhere sitting with Pauline Hanson at the moment" @amyremeikis.bsky.social speaks on how 'civility politics' is killing Australian political discourse. Link: youtu.be/oKyBcrTWA2M #auspol

The privilege of a CEO of a major corporation who has assistants for all the mundane stuff. Does he know how to wipe his own arse after taking a dump?

I truly, deeply, sincerely do think the guy flipping burgers at McDonalds should be able to afford rent, bills, and groceries with his paycheck alone. That's kind of the whole point of having a job and I can't believe this is considered a radical position.🤷🏽‍♀️

Ich war in diesem Sommer bei einer Schule zu Besuch und habe jungen Menschen zugehört. Was sie sagten, hat mich tief traurig gemacht. Meine aktuelle Kolumne @taz.de: taz.de/Von-Kindern-...

We need to look to the 13-year-old girls for leadership.

Here is the full suspension letter from UGent that was sent to Nathan Cofnas, it shows ample reason for his suspension and potential termination. Including breach of contract, using the University of Ghent’s name and legitimacy to promote his racial supremacist views and causing reputational damage.

Call them what they are: Parasites.

So they risked disturbing actual, real Bronze Age gravesites in order to not disturb the nonexistent 'grave' of an entirely fictitious figure. Help me understand.

Having learned French in school, 'annoying' is what I'll go with.

This concept was introduced to me as "run the dishwasher twice" and was an important part of my executive functioning recovery as well as my path to self-acceptance.

You can speak ill of the dead when, while alive, they spoke and caused ill, of so many others. You don’t have to mourn monsters.

Don’t live your life so that when you die people say “oh I was hoping it’d be the other guy, but I’ll take it”

Was man inzwischen übrigens auch ohne Vorbehalt sagen kann: Die AfD ist eine rechtsextreme Partei. Das „in Teilen rechtsextrem“ ist falsch und verharmlosend. Wer wegen dieser Aussage Probleme bekommen sollte, kann gern unser Gutachten vorlegen (und soll sich bei uns melden).

It can be difficult to tell if a video is AI sometimes. That's not the case with this one. If you can't tell it's fake/AI-generated, you really need to worry. Also, it is the polar opposite of funny.

Australians will pause at 11am tomorrow to observe a minute’s silence, in order to reflect on the hardships endured by rich men who sabotaged their careers on purpose in order to generate maximum media coverage and victimhood status.

"Political operatives are trying to intimidate me. It's not going to work". Fucking brilliant stuff by @amyremeikis.bsky.social www.deepcutnews.com/p/political-...

The “let me explain why Hansons speech was a success” columns are truly condescendingly putrid.

Sarah Martin is an incredible journalist and Hanson personally attacking her for very standard questions shows just how down the Trump normalisation we are. And it will come to all journalists who do their job.

So many worrying things for Australia’s democracy out of today’s #NPC. One of the worst was the failure of journalists to stand up for their colleague Sarah Martin. #auspol

Couldn't even do a 30 minute speech in under 50min and she thinks she knows how to budget #NPC

This #NPC event was as much a test of our mainstream political journalists as of Pauline Hanson. With a couple of honourable exceptions, they’ve failed miserably. #auspol

This gallery has had a decade of watching Trump and 30 yrs of Hanson and they walked in the press club like it was first day on the job.

Unfortunate that Charlie Pickering should declare Australian of the Year Grace Tame's gig at the ABC as 'problematic' while talking to a serial pest convicted of spousal abuse eh. #LetHerSpeak

One of the more misogynistic takes currently trending in the AI policy space is "women use less AI than men because they have less tech literacy" Ok but have you considered that women use less AI than men because we have more tech literacy?

Catching up on a band that I sea live once in the 90s. Really liked them back then and bought their debut album. Didn't keep track of them though. Not only are they still around 30 years later, they're still cooking. I have some listening to do. #music #hardrock

I've been thinking a lot about the death of friendship lately. "Somewhere between “Let’s catch up soon” and “Sorry, life has been hectic”, adult friendship became one of the most emotionally significant and least discussed losses of modern life." timesofindia.indiatimes.com/blogs/civil-...

Büchereien werden von Preisen ausgeschlossen, Verwaltungen kuschen vor der AfD, Lesungen in öffentlichen Bibliotheken werden abgesagt. Man muss es in aller Deutlichkeit sagen: Wir befinden uns längst inmitten eines autoritären Umbaus, noch bevor die AfD echte Regierungsmacht in den Händen hält. (1)

If you receive an email from me praising your writing and offering to mentor you, it’s a scam. If I want money from you, I’ll get it the old fashioned way, by clubbing you unconscious you in a dark alley and going through your pockets for change.

I have a cartoonist friend in Afghanistan who draws under the name Kakar. He’s in hiding and has been persecuted for drawing on themes of free expression, free press, women’s rights and education for girls. He’d like me to share his work here. He’d also like for himself and his family to be free.

AFD gehört nicht in deutsche Parlamente #afd-verbot

Autofahrern steht in Berlin 17x mehr Platz zur Verfügung als Radfahrern, zahlen für 1 Jahr Anwohnerparken weniger als 1 Monat Fahrradmitnahme im ÖPNV und haben in den letzten 10 Jahren rund 250 Radfahrer und Fußgänger getötet. Und das ist allen ernstes die neue Kampagne der CDU🤮🤮 🤮

Noch kein deutsches Volk vor diesem hat so einen Bundeskanzler ertragen müssen.

I hate how steam doesn't punish this behaviour positive review, based on the fact it's beatable in the refund period so you can get your money back you liked the game, but actively decided to exploit the system just to get your £15 back from an indie dev you actual piece of trash.

Stellt euch mal vor, der Chefredakteur einer großen deutschen Zeitung hätte in der Ampel-Zeit gesagt, er suche "händeringend grüne junge Leute", "25-Jährige, die Robert Habeck verteidigten". Was es da für ein Gebrüll gegeben hätte. Wenn er das heute aber über Konservative & Merz sagt: Grillenzirpen.
