"Wir müssen uns mit der AfD inhaltlich auseinandersetzen!", aber dann nicht den Verfassungsschutz-Bericht lesen wollen, der genau das gemacht hat.

Straßen waren derart von Faschos blockiert, dass die Veranstaltung leider abgesagt werden musste, da kann die Polizei nix machen 🙅‍♀️

The highest calling of journalism isn’t to tell two sides of a story.

The highest calling of journalism is to tell the truth.

And acting like a stenographer is a betrayal of your audience.
Unfortunately, in US journalism it is considered neutral to spread a lie, but it is considered "biased" to call out a lie. So, there is a structural asymmetry that rewards colorful lies with virality.

Was soll das? Und ganz vorne wieder mit dabei: die völlig entfesselte Skandalhorde „Polizei Berlin“, politisch verantwortlich für sie ist übrigens die SPD Berlin! Die lässt alles laufen. Seit Jahren!
Polizei Berlin versucht sich um den Preis „Beamte des Jahres“ verdient zu machen.

Wie krass wäre es, wenn sich misshandelte Demonstrierende in #Gießen aufs Widerstandsrecht berufen (Verfassungsbeschwerde) und dann das #BVerfG als Nebenprodukt die Verfassungsfeindlichkeit der NSAfD prüft?

Because they totally CHOOSE to live in hotels with no facilities nearby and to get medical appointments 250 miles away? So this will be essentially a ban on medical appointments for many asylum seekers. More intentional cruelty towards refugees from our government. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...
Government to ban asylum seekers from using taxis
The ban is set to come in February and any exemptions will have to be signed off by the Home Office.

I think it's time for the weekend to come already when I see a message pop up that someone mentioned me in a Teams chat, and my reaction is to whine, out loud: "WHY ME?".

Regular reminder that poverty costs us, societally, so much more money than welfare/benefits that would allow people to live in dignity would ever cost us.

Quickest weekday dinner recipe. Did you know silken tofu makes an amazingly creamy herb “yogurt” base for spiced and roasted chickpeas & vegetables? A cupboard staple I can’t go without! 🌱🌱

IOA Cllr Henwood on Radio Oxford today. He claims there was "a higher fatality rate for cyclists" at The Plain roundabout and "I'm blaming it on the policy" (by which he means LTNs). There was one fatality at The Plain, and the drugged, unlicensed driver who caused it serves an 8 year jail sentence.

1. A landmark study was just published in The Journal of Pediatrics.

It found a 68% reduction in suicidality for trans youth getting HRT.

It also found only 7 of more than 400 stopped taking HRT... and of those that did, 4 still identified as gender-diverse.

Transgender care saves lives.
Study In The Journal Of Pediatrics Finds Trans Youth Care Lowers Suicidality, Few Detransition
The groundbreaking study found that suicidality dropped for transgender youth receiving hormone therapy by nearly 70%, with only 7 patients of 432 discontinuing treatment.
