Singen sorgt für weniger Gewalt, mehr Rekruten und bessere Integration: So sieht es offenbar die CSU. Dort wünscht man sich, dass die Nationalhymne bald in jeder Schulaula erklingt.

NEW: Five years of social media history is only a fraction of what the US Government will shortly demand of overseas visitors.

The full requirements will end tourism in the United States.

Below is the full, mind-blowing list.

Many psychologists are treating LLMs as if they are the mind of god.

This study had chatGPT rate how central academic disciplines are to various constructs.

Why would chatGPT know this?

Where is the evidence its ratings are reliable or valid?

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.
 
My new piece for @zeit.de – and some thoughts in English:
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.

Die Zeit porträtiert eine „Whites Only“ Siedlung in Arkansas samt schicker Fotostrecke, und schreibt dazu in den Insta-Slides über den Gründer, einen Antisemiten und White Supremacist Überschriften wie „Orwoll, ein Rassist?“ (Sein Projekt wird auch von einem australischen Neo-Nazi unterstützt).
FAZ-Journalist Reinhard Müller hat ein Buch über "Deutsche Dogmen" verfasst. Geht's dort wie behauptet um "Irrtümer der deutschen Volksseele" oder nur um Fantasieprodukte des Autors? Lesen Sie, was LTO-Rezensent Thomas Fischer von dem Buch hält: www.lto.de/recht/meinun...

Die Trumpisten haben den #Universitäten den Krieg erklärt. Warum eigentlich? Und welche Lehren sollte Deutschland aus dieser Entwicklung ziehen? Darum geht es in der neuen Kolumne „Academia under Attack“ von @thomaszimmer.bsky.social für Research.Table: buff.ly/cJ9St91
ICYMI yesterday:

I wrote about Ezra Klein, Ta-Nehisi Coates, the struggle to define the boundaries of what is acceptable in America – and why democratic citizens have an obligation to hold the line on what we consider beyond the pale.

Some thoughts from my new piece:

🧵
Where Is the Line?
On Ezra Klein, Ta-Nehisi Coates, and the struggle to define the boundaries of what is acceptable in America

Trump: "The ones that are run by radical left Democrats -- what they've done to San Francisco, Chicago, New York, Los Angeles. They're very unsafe places & we're gonna straighten them out one by one. This is gonna be a major part for some people in this room. That's a war too. It's war from within"
So many echoes from this article for US politics....

I had an extended conversation with the FAZ podcast (in German) - about Christian nationalism as the defining political identity on the American Right, about ideology and religion in Trumpism, and about why MAGA is at war with the very idea of pluralistic democracy.

Really enjoyed this one:

Der Historiker Thomas Zimmer, noch bis Sommer an der Universität Georgetown, berichtet über die „christlich-völkische" Bewegung der Evangelikalen in den USA, die immer mächtiger wird.

I wrote about why we left America
 
I am starting my new life as a full-time writer focused on U.S. history and politics right after we left the United States. Life and work in America felt increasingly untenable for us.

We were in the privileged position to have the choice to leave.
Onward. Forward. Steady.
Things have really changed. Now I need your help.
