Karin Prien sagte, sie würde auswandern, wenn die AfD an die Macht käme, weil sie jüdische Vorfahren hat. AfD-Rechtsextremist Martin Hess reagiert darauf – um zu zeigen, dass seine Partei angeblich Antisemitismus bekämpfe! – indem er ihr sagt, sie solle schon mal „die Koffer packen“. Faschisten.

Dad’s books are full of empathy, common sense, and a healthy suspicion of the powerful. But at its heart his work is also about how systems keep people poor while pretending it’s their own fault. So I hope Kemi’s taking notes as well as reading the jokes.

Truly we live in the most Trump-brained timeline. Maybe, just maybe the Nobel Prize committee gave María Corina Machado the peace prize on her own merits, rather than so as not to give Trump the award while making it impossible for him to criticise their choice.

Ich würde in dem Fall von selbsterklärten "Linken" sprechen, aber das ist vielleicht Wunschdenken.

So oder so hilft es den Rechten, Antisemitismus als Problem der "Anderen" (Linke u Muslime) umzudeuten, und schreckt die Bevölkerung von aktiver Solidarität m dem palästinensischen Volk ab.

Science belongs to the public. That’s why it was so special to share our Community Science Data Talks project on public radio!

When climate science and public media are under pressure, I’m reminded that informed, empathetic conversation is a form of civic action.

Happy #BannedBooksWeek. If you love libraries and hate censorship, I'd encourage you to do more than just read a banned book this week. Here are a few ideas:
1. Get involved in your local public library board
2. Join or start a friends group
3. Organize a people's assembly for your public library
