“In my work with the (Nuremberg Trial) defendants, I was searching for the nature of evil, and I now think I have come close to defining it. A lack of empathy... a genuine incapacity to feel with their fellow men. Evil, I think, is the absence of empathy.”

new video: "Lagrangian Mechanics: when theoretical physics got real." In addition to some history, I take Newtonian mechanics and derive Hamilton’s principle, revealing how the mysterious quantity K-U naturally appears, answering the common question "why is L=K-U?" youtu.be/QbnkIdw0HJQ 🧪⚛️🔭 #chemsky

Built in the 13th century. So that mosque stood for 800 years with every sort of person from every place and every religion in the world passing through Gaza century after century, only for it to be blown up by some shithead loser sitting behind a computer that we probably paid for.

Ein Völkermord muss nicht exakt so aussehen wie der Holocaust, um als Völkermord bezeichnet und eingeordnet zu werden. Er muss den rechtlichen Kriterien des Art. II der Völkermordkonvention entsprechen.

Es gibt keinen Grund, die – vorwiegend weiblichen – Teilzeitbeschäftigten zu kritisieren. Sie leisten gesellschaftlich wichtige Arbeit. Vielmehr gilt es, ihre Arbeitsbedingungen zu verbessern. Vor allem auch die Arbeitszeiten. 1/n

I think we should actually consider the idea of “you can change your gender but not sex” as just straight up transphobia, gender essentialism and frankly, sexism
spare us from the cis allies who are always like "nobody saying that you can change your sex" and "we're talking about gender not sex, they're very different." stop it.

Very important!

Important writing campaign!
The EHRC – the body which is meant to protect our human rights – is proposing guidance which would turn the Equality Act into a bathroom ban. If this becomes law, it would force trans people out of public life.

And terrifyingly - this is all happening behind closed doors 🧵

Nun hat die israelische Armee auch weite Teile der Stadt #Gaza zur Kampfzone erklärt. Die Menschen können nirgendwo hin fliehen, ihr (Über-)Leben wird unmöglich gemacht. Zu diesem Schluss kommt auch Omer Bartov in der @nytimes.com.

Den selben Tanz hatten wir übrigens im Heimatort meiner Eltern, wo die Gemeinde und LH nach einer Verunreinigung des Trinkwassers keine Info rausgeben wollte, mit was konkret das Wasser verunreigt war. Wäre zwecks Behandlung gut gewesen.

Aber den Jauche-Bauern muss ma schützen.

Es ging nie um Abtreibung.
Es ging nie um angebliche Fehler in einer Dissertation.
Es geht um den 2. Senat des BVG, welcher über ein AfD-Verbot zu entscheiden hätte.

Young refuseniks burn their IOF draft papers in the middle of Tel Aviv

They refuse to serve in the Israeli Occupation Forces, and are willing to go to military jail for their position. The new generation of refuseniks is supported by the older, many of them spent months in jail already

Pulitzer Prize-winning Palestinian writer Mosab Abu Toha says he’s been suspended from Substack, a platform where white supremacists publish without issue. I can’t recall this happening to any prominent writers in the past.
