We shape the world we live in. We are not powerless, yet our elected officials feign "having to" use X even though it's abundantly obvious it's a negative force. Why do they work as content creators that drive traffic and profits to x while holding public office? Don't they work for us? #x
Werte Politikerinnen, werte Politiker, warum sind Sie noch auf X?

Diese Frage stelle ich in meiner aktuellen Kolumne in @derstandard.at - und erkläre, wie radikal Elon Musk derzeit auftritt und welch problematische Kampagnen auf der Plattform ablaufen (zB zu @dunjahayali.de)
Werte Politikerinnen, werte Politiker: Warum sind Sie noch auf X?
Jetzt wäre ein guter Zeitpunkt für die Politik, die grässliche Plattform X von Milliardär Elon Musk zu verlassen

Vem tar ansvar för att legitimera x.com genom att skapa innehåll som driver trafik och intäkter till en platform vars algoritmer optimerar för konflikt. Vem tar ansvar för att länka till x på sina webbplatser och appar? Ingen. Man "är tvungen" att vara där. Förfasas då inte över hot mot Hatt.

The Enemies Within - Britain's Treacherous 5th Column of Grifters
Edition No252 | 10-10-2025 - For those not following British politics, and in fact for those that only get their news via the mainstream media the following story may com as a shock. We have our own problem with Kremlin assets, propaganda mouthpieces and useful idiots. Yes, support for Ukraine is higher than in most other countries of the world. But we also have unprincipled scumbags that are prepared to take the Kremlin’s tainted pieces of silver in return for their souls. A shadow has been cast over Nigel Farage’s Reform party, as Nathan Gill pleads guilty to essentially being a – Russian asset, and traitor to his country. On 26 September, former Welsh Brexit Party MEP and Reform UK official Nathan Gill pleaded guilty at the Old Bailey to accepting payments for making pro-Russian statements in the European Parliament. The eight counts of bribery relate to both television and appearances in public forums. He faces sentencing in November. These charges quite likely come with a custodial sentence. This is not a fringe political scandal, but the silence of the mainstream, mostly right-wing tabloid, media, owned by a handful of billionaires is deafening. Plus, BBC coverage is minimal, in a shocking display of institutional sycophancy to the most extreme forces in British politics. ----------This is super important. There are so many Battalions in Ukraine, fighting to defend our freedoms, but lack basics such as vehicles. These are destroyed on a regular basis, and lack of transport is costs lives, and Ukrainian territory.

Jonathan told me how there are things you have to do, even if they are dangerous. "Why is that?" I asked. "Because if you don't you're not a human being, you're nothing but a little louse," Jonathan replied.

The Brothers Lionheart
The Brothers Lionheart is a tale of love strong enough to conquer death – not just once, but twice. After brothers Jonathan and Crusty pass away they meet again in Nangijala, the land of eternal spring. Casting a long shadow over their world is the evil tyrant Tengil, ruler of the country Karmanjaka, where he’s building his new fortress up in the The Ancient Mountains.

Finally! Finally! I have been waiting for our leaders to finally start speaking up about this threat.

In my view the decline of democracy & civil society in this century can largely be traced to the rise of social media.
