Humanities nerd at heart, who took the very scenic route to working in IT security, which even after years in my job still feels like an odd and slightly funny miracle. In a good way.
Wäre das Gefühl von Wut darüber, dass jemand, der in der eigenen Warnehmung weniger kriegen sollte, mehr kriegt, nicht prinzipiell plausibel, wäre diese Hetze m.E. nicht so erfolgreich.
Dass die ganze Prämisse, auf der das Gefühl basiert, erfunden ist... tja.

Da verstehst Du mich falsch. Ich unterstelle nicht, dass sie das Leid anderer genießen. Sondern dass ihnen die gefühlte Hierarchie und ihr Platz darin wichtig ist und sie auf das Gefühl anspringen, vermeintlich unfair benachteiligt zu werden.
Rechte zu Monstern zu machen ist zu einfach.

Was man stattdessen hätte machen sollen, ist vielen, glaube ich, egal, solange es merklich schlechter ist, als das was man selbst bekommt.

Ich glaube, der Unmut entsteht primär durch diese ständigen Erzählungen, "die" würden priviligiert behandelt, während die einheimische Bevölkerung die da oben nicht interessiert.
Klassische rechte Erzählung.

Daran musste ich auch denken. Ich kenne die britische Politiklandschaft ganz gut, und auch dort wird die vermeintliche Unterbringung von Geflüchteten in Luxushotels genutzt, um die Stimmung einzuheizen. Auch dort stimmt es nicht.

As a woman in tech: Nah, the distinction isn't gay or straight. There are just a lot of men in tech who are really not okay. To me, this appears to be the primary common denominator.

That really what you're hanging the distinction on? I'm a techie with two humanities degrees. Yes, a proper techie. Musk and Zuckerberg probably haven't contributed a line of code to their companies in half a lifetime.
Sorry, I think Techiedom isn't getting out of this one.

To be honest, I'm not sure these "Christians" have ever read the New Testaments past the bits about fire, swords and submissive women.
I'm not christian, but I remember a number of sections that suggest Jesus would not be on board with much in the Maga world.

That fury very much extends to our European governments too, who don't seem to quite be able to locate their spine, either.

So: Angry at the US, oh absolutely livid, but grateful and full of respect for you good people who risk much to stand up for rule of law.

What I am feeling furious about: That Trump was voted in a second time (including the popular vote), plunging us all into chaos, and how US institutions, media, industry bend the knee.

Non-American here. I have a great deal of admiration for the courage of people standing up to him and his goons 💜, which do get coverage in our news.

Wow. Thanks for clearing that up. I'm... huh.
Never thought I'd look fondly back upon the conservative christian community of the village I grew up in.
Like, they were low-key homophobic, sexist and frowned upon the local metal heads' t-shirts, but Utah seems to be playing at a different level. .

Er, could someone explain to us non-Americans what issue they might possibly take with Wicked?

I truly don't get it.

Which part of "Not for sale" is the US regime struggeling to comprehend?

Security by Obscurity ist - nochmal langsam damit unser Senat mitschreiben kann - keine taugliche Sicherheitsmaßnahme.

And this is why I grew up learning that fascism is not an opinion, it's a crime.

Stimmt. So gibt's - wenn das nächste mal zehntausende Menschen ohne Strom dastehen - vom Grund wenigstens Videoaufnahmen. Also, der Strom ist dann freilich immernoch weg. Aber sie tun was. 🤷🏼‍♀️

Oooder man könnte bei kritischer Infrastruktur diese Redundanz einbauen, von der ich im Studium mal gelernt habe. Und die dann ordentlich schützen, statt sie offen zugänglich in der Pampa rumliegen zu lassen.
Nee? Lieber Kameras? Na dann.

I wonder if we're going to be hearing similar think-pieces by US pundits soon when the US regime moves to illegally occupy European territory in Greenland.
