Eftersom regeringen ogillar vindenergi stoppades olika stora projekt i Sverige. Elprisen kunde vara lägre redan nu om de hade inte varit ideologiskt inlåst. Utan att ta upp att vindkvarn är mindre farligt och enklare att få igång igen efter haveri.

Ratten sind intelligente, soziale Tiere, ausserdem interessiert und sportlich. Da kann mancher Mensch nicht mit. Neuere Forschung zeigt, dass Ratten Spass am Fahren von selbstangetriebenen "Autos" haben und durchaus optimistisch sein können. What's not to like?

They're building concentration camps with my tax money Chuck. They're torturing children. They're murdering innocent people on the street. What are you doing.
Our DHS reform demands are exceedingly reasonable.

We're asking ICE to do nothing more than follow the standards that the vast majority of law enforcement agencies already follow.

Republicans, the ball is in your court. The clock is ticking.

Yes. This is why you should beware of people who speak of the lessons or verdict of history as if future students of evil will always judge it harshly rather than glorify and aspire to it. If history teaches anything it is that history will not conform to your pleasant delusions at some later date.
Yes. Miller knows those people can't all be deported. He knows they will be in camps. We need to understand: many, many people in Trump's circle read about the Nazis, openly admire Hitler, and want to emulate what Hitler did. We have to accept how serious this is - we cannot hide from it.
Dear all saying no worries, Trump can't round up 10M immigrants because their work is needed for the US economy: please, remember that MOST of the camps in Germany from 1938 were "Arbeitslager" - labor camps. Deporting people is hard. But locking people up and making them work, that's been done. 1/

Im DLF betrieb Jörg Baberowski gerade - ohne sie deutlich zu benennen - ein Whitewashing von MAGA, Orban, AfD & Co im Namen einer wirklichen Demokratie anstelle der "liberalen", alles inklusive raunender Infragestellung von Verfassungsgerichtsbarkeit. Ich kann kaum glauben, was ich da gehört habe.

So, politics isn’t for you? Maybe it should be.

Fascism doesn’t arrive overnight. It creeps in through apathy, silence, and the idea that “this stuff doesn’t affect me.” Graphic novels have always been a frontline medium; cheap, urgent, emotional, and impossible to ignore.

Pressa fram kärnkraft i osäkert världsläge är inte klokt. Kolla Ukraina. Att föreslå Barsebäck som möjligt placering visar på begränsningar i tänkandet, minst sagt: Andra sidan sundet ligger Köpenhamn, en huvudstad - inte lätt att evakuera, fall i fall. Och i Malmö struntas med?

I’m not arguing with no account defending AI. My grandmother lives in an area being environmentally compromised currently by an ai data center. I remember the color of the lake before they built it and the sludge I see in it when I go to see her. Shut the fuck up about “the benefits of AI” forever.

Make your own damn work! Make mistakes, struggle. Be surprised by your own work - “where did that come from?!” The experience is what makes you who you are - everything else is just product. Refuse to be robbed of experience, of what makes you human.

Am Ende die Auflösung: der Populismus sei eine demokratische Antwort auf undemokratischen Liberalismus. Es sei nicht die Demokratie, die in der Krise sei, sondern die liberale Demokratie. (Direkter Bezug auf Philip Manow).
