"The girlfriend of one of the founders of Antifa"

Photo of Mildred Harnack: "Mildred Fish-Harnack was the only American woman to die by Adolf Hitler's direct order for spying on Germany during World War II... During the rise of Hitler and the Nazi regime, Fish-Harnack and her husband joined a small resistance group, which the Nazi secret police — or Gestapo — would later call the Red Orchestra." "On December 19, after a four-day trial before the Reichskriegsgericht ("Reich Military Tribunal"), Mildred Harnack was initially sentenced to six years in prison, but Adolf Hitler refused to endorse the sentence and ordered a new trial, which resulted in a death sentence on January 16, 1943. She was beheaded by guillotine on February 16, 1943. While she was imprisoned, Fish-Harnack translated the poem Vermächtnis (transl. "Bequest") by Johann Wolfgang von Goethe.Her last words were purported to have been "Und ich habe Deutschland auch so geliebt" ("And I, too, so loved Germany")."

Thomas Thiel in der FAZ, erwartbar dennoch unfassbar in der Formulierung:

"Die Geheimhaltung des Konferenzorts aus Furcht vor gewaltsamen Angriffen war keine voreilige Entscheidung. Bei der Ermordung von Charlie Kirk hat sich gezeigt, welche Militanz von Teilen der Transgenderbewegung ausgeht."

Die Affäre war doch nie öffentlich oder? Finde schon wichtig, zu diskutieren, wie sie ihm auch intellektuell verbunden war und blieb, allerdings natürlich gleichzeitig die absolut entscheidenden Punkte, an denen sie sich (intellektuell) von ihm befreite

As an instructor, I'd rather see your fever dream, No Doze-fueled 4AM essays written at an IHOP rather than anything generated by an LLM.

Hope this helps

I wrote a 15 page report on heraldic symbolism in medieval armor and weapon design for my art history class the night before it was due (8am class). Made up 90% of it (only found one book for reference) and got an A. GenAI could fucking never.

wrote 20 pages on Faulkner's The Bear four hours before final papers were due on trucker pills and coffee and cigarettes and got an A, fuck you.
You people couldn't hang with real slackers.

France ousted fascists with a huge general strike, but that doesn’t count because the Nazis invaded them 5 years later, so the only possibility we have is states seceding by using fashtech. Brilliant

This was an interesting read.

I researched every attempt to stop fascism in history. The success rate is 0%.

Once they win elections, it's already too late.

Topped only by French banks offering Haiti the credit to pay these reparations and selling the bonds to the French populace as a great investment.

Ironically searching for „Bad Bunny colonial“ brings up a lot of articles about him making Puerto Rico’s colonial past & present a central topic in his music, while the same outlets are seemingly unable to frame the threat of revocation of citizenship in those same terms

Robert Heinze @rheinze.bsky.social · 14h

Is there any mention in all the reporting of Bad Bunny's Superbowl performance brouhahah of Puerto Rico's colonial history and present? They are talking of revoking his citizenship, can't think of anything more colonial.

Its strange how, amidst calls to draw more attention to British suppression of slavery in the Indian Ocean & East Africa (and to focus less on British slavery in the Atlantic), this excellent study by Moses Nwulia (1975) is so neglected. Maybe to do with his ‘humanitarianism of self-interest’ idea?
