What effect can right-wing extremist internet memes have on society and democracy? @tom2105.bsky.social and #VeronicaBezold are researching this topic as part of the #ForGeRex network. In their new article, they also address the challenges posed by AI (see p. 264): tinyurl.com/yfs3wf9u

Es ist vollbracht: Seit heute ist die „Knoblauchliebe“ von Dieter Hanitzsch und mir im Buchhandel erhältlich. Im Buch verschmelzen Texte und Cartoons rund um das Thema Knoblauch. Abgerundet wird der Inhalt mit ausgewählten Knoblauchrezepten.

Gezeigt wird das Buch-Cover der „Knoblauchliebe“. Entlag der Mittelsenkrechten ist eine lächelnde Knoblauchknolle abgebildet. Der Umschlag selbst ist in Blau gehalten. Das Buch liegt auf einem dunklen Untergrund mit ausgewählten Gewürzen.
