Sehr geehrter #Merz
Hier stimmt etwas im #Stadtbild nicht.
Es waren auch viele #Töchter da.
Sie haben sich bei diesen
Polizeieinsätzen nicht sicher gefühlt.
Fragen Sie doch bitte mal nach.

Der Bundespräsident hat kürzlich die Zivilgesellschaft aufgerufen, sich den Rechtsextremen entgegenzustellen. Heute haben Tausende Menschen genau das gemacht, und diese Menschen sind nun also für den Bundeskanzler alle "ganz links". Puh.

Wie sagte Trump vor 8 Jahren, es waren „very fine people, on both sides.“ Die CDU von heute scheint das ganz ähnlich zu sehen, „ganz links und ganz rechts“. Das hier eine Seite gegen gesichert rechtsextreme Gruppierungen demonstriert scheint der CDU wohl egal zu sein. Nur noch traurig

Während der heutigen Festrede von Friedrich Merz bei der Talisman Preisverleihung in Berlin verlassen etliche Gäste den Saal. Wurde ein Bundeskanzler jemals in der Öffentlichkeit so gedemütigt? 🤔🤷♀️

What is really going on in this society that elected Donald Trump president a second time?
I wrote about three stubborn myths about Trump’s support – and why America has experienced a de-alignment rather than a rightward realignment.

Unterstützung von Donald Trump: Die Irrtümer über Donald Trumps Rückhalt
Rechtsruck, multiethnische Koalition, Held einfacher Leute: Trump gilt als fest verankert. Doch diese Überzeugung beruht auf drei großen Missverständnissen.

Voters tonight said fuck this fascist shit. With Mamdani, they showed incredible courage to believe in change and a better future.
The work doesn’t end here, but everything begins with courage and if we are going to get out of this mess it’s going to take courage to believe in better.
