I don't know who still needs to hear this or who has any doubts left about what the extreme right will use data and digital infrastructure for: For their ehtno-nationalist project. And they can barely hide their distain for anyone who disagrees with them. I am glad that digital policy experts stand up against this and make a stand. Thank you, @npub1l7g6...nudk.
With fascism back on the main stage and big tech CEOs paving its way with money and support I can only repeat my recommendation for @npub16wcy...ehf0's 2022 book "Resisting AI - An Anti-fascist Approach to Artificial Intelligence". If you are a digital/tech person and as worried as I am, books like these are a starting point for understanding the role of tech in our current down spiral (and for acting accordingly). image
This is the time to ask your less privileged friends how they are, to show them that they aren’t alone. This is the time of solidarity.
Fantastic piece by @npub1fdrp...lvhs about how private ownership and competition ruin all platforms in the long run.

Was Chan-Jo hier im Podcast der Bundesrechtsanwaltskammer zum @npub16nz9...pw42 sagt, ist eine der besten Zusammenfassungen dazu, warum das AfD-Verbotsverfahren endlich zum Bundesverfassungsgericht gebracht werden muss, warum es in jedem Fall erfolgreich sein wird und warum die Sorge um ein „Scheitern“ einfach Quatsch ist. Nichts spricht dagegen, alles dafür!
I understand people who shy away from the historical baggage that comes with words like „communism“. I myself see limitied value in using it. What I really connect to though are the ideals of solidarity, mutual care, public interest and community; a society that focuses radically on the well-being of people. So maybe you dont want to be a communist. But maybe you see yourself being a fellow wellness-manager? I‘d like that 🤝
Hey Berlin, ich habe wegen Erkrankung (bis zu) vier Tickets für eine Buchlesung von Jagoda Marinic und Michel Friedmann am Di., 08.10. im Kesselhaus abzugeben. Wer Interesse hat, gern Bescheid sagen 👋 image
