Can we start to agree that it is not healthy for a democracy, to be intensely influenced by a small group very wealthy people?
A democracy can have wealthy people and I believe we very much need the incentive structure associated with it, but there needs to be a limit (www.foldingtheworld.net).

A gunman tried to silence my wife in an extreme act of political violence.
Now, Trump has called for my execution because he didn’t like what I had to say.
Gabby and I know, when others try to silence you, you must keep speaking out — and that’s exactly what we’re going to do.

The claim that “emissions have come down” in this @nytimes.com @sominisengupta.bsky.social article on where we are ten years post-Paris is FALSE.
Global emissions were at an all-time high in 2024.
As it stands this claim is misinformation. They need to issue a correction!

Bis zum Ende des Jahrhunderts bekommen wir 1m +- 0.4m Meeresspiegelanstieg.
Aber das liegt vor allem an der Trägheit von Ozean und Eisschilden. Schlussendlich verursachen wir pro Grad Erwärmun 1.5m, d.h.

The lesson of history is that tyrants cannot be appeased.
Appeasement only feeds their insatiable hunger for power.
Tyrants prey on people who feel unsafe and vulnerable.
But without mass submission, a tyrant is powerless.
