@tabouchadi.bsky.social und ich schlagen einen neuen Blick auf das Verhältnis von Arbeiter:innen und AfD vor. Die Arbeiterklasse ist nicht nach rechts gerückt. Stattdessen wurde ihr rechter Flügel mobilisiert, ihr linker demobilisiert. Für linke Parteien birgt das strategische Potenziale. Mehr hier:

republik.chDie Arbeiterklasse ist nicht rechtsTrotz der AfD-Erfolge sind die Arbeiter nicht an den Rechts­radikalismus verloren. Was muss die Linke nun tun?
Linus Westheuser@lwestheuser.bsky.social

Man sieht auch absolut keinen Rechtsruck unter Arbeiter:innen, wenn man Rechts-Links-Positionierungen anschaut. Der Teil der Arbeiterklasse, der vorher schon rechts war, hat in der AfD eine Partei gefunden. Linke Arbeiter wurden dagegen vergessen und demobilisiert.

This is a good policy, and I'm waiting for journals to do the same. Next, for all hiring, promotion and grants you should only be able to submit your 5 best or most relevant works.

arXiv limits people to 2 submissions a month, to hold back the tide of AI papers. Feels entirely sensible - today I happened to notice one person had submitted 3 papers, all AI-assisted, in September. Totally out of step with academic norms and simply not sustainable blog.arxiv.org/2026/10/01/u...

“Demographic Anxieties” can now be preordered (pub date June 30)! It shows how the Israeli settler-colonial state and its borders shape Palestinian women’s reproductive freedom, but it is also an ethnography working through what it means to research Palestine as 1/2 www.ucpress.edu/books/demogr...

Meet Crumb, Button, and Clover. A friend in the Bay Area found them behind a gas station. Unfortunately, she isn't able to keep them, so if she can't find someone to adopt them, they will be going to a shelter. Can you help me find them a home? They are in good health and very tame.

I wonder what mysterious thing women generally take on the bulk of that might account for this statistic.

Palantir CEO Alex Karp: "I got in trouble for mentioning that 37% of our GDP is female. 50% of Americans -- 52% roughly -- are female. There's a dislocation there. 67% of people who have gone into graduate school are female. These parts of the market are gonna be put under massive pressure."
