Karl Popper, The Open Society and Its Enemies (1945), vol. 1, ch. 7, note 4.

Any movement preaching intolerance places itself outside the law.
Incitement to intolerance and persecution should be criminal — just like incitement to murder, kidnapping, or slavery.

Therefore, in the name of tolerance, we should not tolerate the intolerant.

But:
we should claim the right to suppress them if necessary, even by force — for they may not engage in rational debate.
They may forbid their followers to listen, and instead answer with fists or pistols.

This does not mean we must always suppress intolerant philosophies.
As long as they can be countered by rational argument and public opinion, suppression would be unwise.
claudegarcia.bsky.social
If we extend unlimited tolerance even to those who are intolerant, and if we are not prepared to defend a tolerant society against their onslaught, then the tolerant will be destroyed — and tolerance with them.
claudegarcia.bsky.social
The paradox of tolerance: unlimited tolerance must lead to the disappearance of tolerance.

Say you're in negotiations with counterparty X. And there are two possible deals on the table ...

París ha naturalizado la plaza del ayuntamiento y la ha convertido en un bosque urbano.

¿Cómo? Con voluntad política y elevando el suelo para dar espacio a las raíces de los árboles.

Southern countries have activated the EU Civil Protection Mechanism to bring in more planes, personnel, and support.
Working closely with @HadjaLahbib & @EU_ECHO to make it happen.
European solidarity means action — not just words.

🔴 Post de urgencia: Calambrazo

Conviene recalcar que el problema no son los sistemas de generación renovable. El problema es el modelo de implantación de los mismos que han impuesto las grandes empresas, más preocupadas por sus beneficios que del bien común.

You've probably heard of Stanley Milgram's 'obedience to authority' experiments

By inducing participants to administer apparently serious electric shocks to someone else, in a fake experiment, Milgram showed that we'll usually obey authority over our own conscience

🧵 Several people have raised questions about what I meant by "deservedly so" when referring to the decline of institutional trust. It's a fair question, so I want to explain that, because it sits at the heart of my work on how democracies collapse when their epistemic foundations rot.

The conditions that have led to what’s happening in the US today exist in democracies around the world.
They are an inevitable outcome of our collective failure to adapt to fundamental changes in the information ecosystem on which our democracies were originally built.
