Lurer på hva det var antifa protesterte mot for nesten hundre år siden i Tyskland.

"Antifa has been around in various iterations for almost 100 years in some instances, going back to the Weimar Republic in Germany."

Kan noen fortelle Aftenposten at dette ikke er en oppmykning, men en påprakning?

Til å være et byråd som legger seg på rygg for utbyggere for å gjøre det lettere og billigere å bygge boliger er innføring av _krav_ om å bygge parkeringsplasser virkelig noe av det mest idiotiske du kan gjøre.

Forskning:
Sosialdemokrater som imiterer høyrepopulister, mister progressive velgere uten å vinne nye.
Anti-innvandringsvelgere ser ikke retorikken som troverdig, og blir hos høyrepopulistiske partier.
Men populistenes verdier normalisers. Det er en langsiktig risiko for det progressive prosjektet.

"We studied more than 70 different elections that took place in 12 western European countries over several decades, and found that when mainstream parties take more anti-immigration positions, it leads to more support for the radical right, not less."

Et eks. på at det er bedre å sykle på rødt lys er ned Riddervolds gt og rett frem inn i Slottsparken. Da bør man sykle når det er grønn mann og ikke vente på grønt lys slik at man kommer i konflikt med biler som svinger og fotgjengere som har fått et forsprang inn i parken. www.ao.no/27-syklister...

He’s not saying it because he believes it. He’s saying it because saying it makes other people believe it and provides justification for killing/imprisoning Americans for political beliefs.

The University of Maryland, College Park, has decided to solve the shortage of bike parking by ... requiring everyone to wear a helmet while riding a bicycle or scooter.

Dear Campus Community,
The University of Maryland is committed to the safety of each member of our campus community. Over the years, the number of micromobility vehicles, including, but not limited to, pedal bicycles, electric bikes and electric scooters, has grown on campus.
The Micromobility Workgroup meets regularly to discuss safety and implementation of micromobility rules on campus. The group currently includes representatives of eleven campus departments and key student organizations. The workgroup members recommended addressing certain safety concerns associated with micromobility by implementing a new University of Maryland Policy and Procedures for the Wearing of Helmets While Riding a Micromobility Vehicle on University Property.
What’s New?
Under this policy, we aim to safeguard Terps and others by requiring anyone operating a micromobility vehicle (as defined in the policy) on university property to wear a helmet at all times. The President approved the interim policy, and it is currently in effect.
Why Require Helmets?
Due to their small size, lack of safety protection and sometimes inexperienced riders, micromobility vehicles can be prone to accidents. It is known that accidents and collisions involving micromobility vehicles often involve head injury, and that wearing helmets can reduce the severity of head injuries.
How is the University Prioritizing Safety?
In addition to implementing the interim policy, we continue to promote safe behavior in a number of ways. Key steps include reducing the speed limit on campus to 15 m.p.h. for all vehicles, including micromobility vehicles, and mandating registration (and safety training) for owners of personal e-scooters and bikes. The University of Maryland Police Department enforces Maryland state traffic laws on our campus through regular patrols and periodic enforcement events in high-traffic areas.
With this new interim policy, we hope to further safety and reduce head injuries. Our long-term goal is to co…
