Die Raudis
Der wichtigste Berater von Donald Trump: „Es ist offensichtlich, dass Grönland ein Teil der Vereinigten Staaten sein sollte. Das ist seit langem die offizielle Position der US-Regierung.“
TAPPER: Can you rule out the US is going to take Greenland by force?

MILLER: Greenland should be part of the US. By what right does Denmark assert control over Greenland? The US is the power of NATO

T: So force is on the table?

M: Nobody is gonna fight the US militarily over future of Greenland

Verstehe ich das richtig? Innenminister Gerhard Karner holt Taliban, also Mitglieder einer islamistischen Terrororganisation nach Wien um in heimischen Haftanstalten Personen zu identifzieren, die dann nach Kabul abgeschoben werden? Wer kommt als nächstes zu Besuch? Die Hamas? Al Kaida?

"Who counts as ‘the elite’?
The survey results are surprising. 🧐
– Only 11% see journalists as part of the elite.
– Scientists and academia: just 31%.
So far, so good, I guess?
– But even the President is considered elite by only 54%. But it shows how blurry the very concept of ‘elite’ really is."

In a new paper we show how misinformation derails support for public action on climate change by casting doubt on the scientific consensus (which undermines public opinion).

Disinformers attack expert consensus because they know it works.

Methane is a greenhouse gas that is much more potent than carbon dioxide (CO2) but has a shorter lifetime in the atmosphere.

How we treat the climate impacts of methane matters a lot for the carbon footprint of foods. But even if we exclude methane, meat and dairy products still emit the most.

Die USA verweigern die Teilnahme an der bevorstehenden Menschenrechtsüberprüfung der UNO und kritisieren das System als politisiert und voreingenommen. Bürgerrechtler warnen vor einem gefährlichen Präzedenzfall, der die Rechenschaftspflicht untergräbt.

Decades of research suggest that authoritarian leaders and their admirers consistently share one thing in common: they twist the truth!
