In der Mitarbeiterzeitschrift des Auswärtigen Amts ist ein "Schmähgedicht" gegen Baerbock und Habeck veröffentlicht worden. Grundkenntnisse in deutscher Kommasetzung sind offenbar keine Voraussetzung für eine Karriere im diplomatischen Dienst.

Much higher than the estimate death toll in the 2022 protests, and probably the bloodiest crackdown in the Islamic Republic's history, if you exclude the murder of political prisoners in jails in the 1980s.
"About 2,000 people including security personnel have been killed in protests in Iran, an Iranian official said on Tuesday, the first time authorities have acknowledged the high death toll from an intense crackdown on two weeks of nationwide unrest" www.reuters.com/world/china/...

It's the first time authorities have acknowledged the high death toll from an intense crackdown.

It's absolutely g.d. blood-chilling to see a cabinet official officially threatening U.S. citizens, and it certainly doesn't need to be draped in nonexistent Nazi tinsel to be absolutely g.d. blood-chilling.

So is his argument that being disrespectful to the regime justifies killing the person? How far down the slippery slope is the US already?

In sozialen Netzwerken verbreiten sich KI-generierte NS-Bilder, die historische Fakten verfälschen & Verbrechen verharmlosen. Dahinter stehen oft Content-Farmen oder revisionistische Akteure. Gedenkstätten fordern konsequentes Vorgehen gegen solche digit. Geschichtsfälschungen.

Can't find the thread, but there was someone pointing out very well that - even though there might not be an exact quote from a nazi - that the underlying idea was very real, citing the eradication of a whole village for the assassination of Heydrich and other examples (Vergeltungsmaßnahmen).

A restaurant in my German town which is completely managed by Italians adds cream to their carbonara (allegedly because Germans want it that way, but I assume it's for durability and costs).

Italian cuisine is one of the best pieces of nation building ever. So many dishes are less than 100 years old and used to build a shared identity. Fair play, it worked, they're very proud of it but most of their key ingredients aren't even European, let alone Italian. See also Thailand and Pad Thai.

This one I disagree with. One of life's great pleasures is watching Italians being livid over minor changes to recipes, all of which were merely invented, some very recently (Carbonara? 1940s). It's a culture war with zero consequence; given the current state of the world we all need a bit of that.
Italians need to stop getting so pissy about even the slightest changes to their traditional recipes. If I want to use Parmesan instead of Pecorino in my Carbonara I will do. Pancetta too. Where even sells Guanciale anyway? It's still Carbonara either way.

Von einem Journalisten-Verband erwarte ich die Fähigkeit, zwischen einem kritischen, nach journalistischen Grundsätzen arbeitenden Nachrichtenportal und einer politischen Kampagnenplattform zu unterscheiden. Ein DJV, der das nicht schafft, kann mich nicht vertreten.

Einen DJV, der ein Portal verteidigt, dass mit Diffamierungskampagnen auch gegenüber tatsächlich kritisch berichtenden Kolleg*Innen arbeitet, kann ich nicht mit meinen Mitgliedsbeiträgen unterstützen.
