En ja. Mogelijk heb ik me eeuwig voor joker gezet. Maar dat is de liberale democratie mij waard.

Ukrinform: Former NATO Secretary General Stoltenberg, speaking at the WEF in Davos, emphasised that Ukraine’s best security guarantee is NATO membership under Article 5 of the Washington Treaty. However, if NATO hesitates, Ukraine should be armed "to the teeth" to defend itself and deter russia.

Mogen we deze nul nu eindelijk gewoon #fascist noemen.
Hij volgt keurig het door #Mussolini uitgelegde paadje: Maak één groep de schuldige, ondermijn de media, creëer wantrouwen in het juridisch systeem, ontken wetenschap en blijf beweren dat jij het wel allemaal gaat oplossen.

This is the Volt approach: long-term, evidence-based solutions, inspired by policy successes from across Europe! In this case, inspired by Finland’s success with Housing First! Think European, Act Local! 💡

“Every single person who leaves behind years of homelessness with the help of one of these apartments and finds their way back to a life of dignity is a great success and a reason to celebrate."

"Housing First is gaining momentum and offering people a perspective to permanently escape homelessness. In Europe, we must end homelessness by 2030."

Martin Huber
Leader of Volt Frankfurt's Parliamentary Group

📌What is Housing First?
Housing First focuses on placing homeless individuals in stable homes. Once housed, individuals receive support tailored to their needs, such as mental health care, addiction services, or job training. A stable home is the first step to a better life!

How it's going: Screenshot of Web Site with caption "Frankfurt: A home after 29 years on the street" plus photo of a person in an appartment.

In today’s thread, I’ll break down why the West, from a purely pragmatic standpoint, cannot afford to let the Republic of Georgia 🇬🇪 slip into the hands of Russia, China, and Iran.🧵The stakes are high, and here’s why.

Elon Musk's and X's Role in 2024 Election Interference, a letter from an alleged X whistleblower.

"What started as US election interference has now spread to other countries. We're currently doing the same thing in Germany and other European nations."

theconcernedbird.substack.com/p/elon-musks...

I'm writing this with a heavy heart and no small amount of fear. As a former X (formerly Twitter) employee on an H1B visa, I can't reveal my identity without risking everything, but I can't stay silent any longer about what I saw and was made to do.

When Elon Musk took over, everything changed. What started as a social media company became something much darker. I was part of a team that was directly ordered to manipulate Twitter's systems to influence the 2024 US presidential election. It wasn't subtle, and it wasn't ethical.

We completely changed how the algorithm worked, pushing pro-Trump and right-wing posts to the top of people's feeds. To make it look balanced, we also boosted some left-wing critics of Democrats, but it was all carefully calculated. These changes didn't just affect Americans - they impacted users worldwide.

One of the most disturbing things we did was create thousands of fake accounts using advanced AI systems called Grok and Eliza. These accounts looked completely real and pushed political messages that spread like wildfire. Havn't you noticed they all disappeared? Like magic.

We also knowingly allowed foreign governments to manipulate the platform. State-backed groups from Israel, Iran, and Russia were running their own influence campaigns, and because their goals aligned with ours, we looked the other way. Even when they clearly broke the rules, we didn't stop them.

Perhaps the most unethical part was how we manufactured news stories. One team would write completely fake articles, while another team would artificially boost their engagement metrics to make them go viral. We specifically targeted certain groups of people, knowing exactly how to manipulate their views and emotions.

The moderation team became a tool for our agenda. We systematically silenced anyone who got in our way, enforcing the rules when it suited us and ignoring them when it didn't. Elon Musk himself was deeply involved in these decisions, often joking about being "Black Hat MAGA."

What started as US election interference has now spread to other countries. We're currently doing the same thing in Germany and other European nations. The damage we've done is immeasurable, and I don't know if it can ever be fixed. People don't know what's real anymore, and that's exactly what we wanted.

The pilot program for the Eliza AI Agent, was election interference. Eliza was release officially in October of 2024, but we had access to it before then thanks to Marc Andreessen.

I'm terrified to be writing this, but I had to speak up. I just hope that someone with the power to do something about this sees this letter. You'll know what i’m saying is the truth by Elon's actions to the news someone spoke out. For more evidence look at the docs of Eliza AI Agent software. We left bread crumbs.

Yours sincerely,

A former employee who can't sleep at night.

How can this become their Vietnam, without USA boots on the ground??
When delivering a huge amount of weapons to another country makes it a Vietnam, the USA had many Vietnams, since the ‘80s.

When Adolf Hitler came to power he released his imprisoned supporters from jail, ripped up labour laws protecting workers and crushed social security programmes in return for tax cuts for the rich...

Fight before it’s too late. Fight wherever you are — whether in the country or abroad, in villages or cities, in the streets, classrooms, public spaces, or workplaces.

Be brave, support one another, and stand united.

Do not let Georgia become isolated from the civilized world.”
