The article does not mention the evidence basis, so I will keep my comment general. In the Netherlands similar accusations were made against Lucia de Berk, the evidence was based on opinions of superiors and colleagues plus the statistical unlikelihood of so many patients dying under her supervision. But crucially there was never any direct evidence that she deliberately killed patients, and in the end it turned out that she didn’t. She was particularly unliked by her colleagues because she was a sex worker in the past and that is why she was given the worst shifts (and coincidentally the shifts where more patients die). In the end her life was ruined by her colleagues and the judiciary system not understanding statistics (5 percent of all nurses have a statistically-significant high death rate). Again this case could be a real psychopath but the fact that they don’t mention the evidence basis makes me think of Lucia de Berk.

Maybe it’s time to restart some some old Greek traditions and propose a law that anyone proposing chat control - from here on out - gets banished for life from entering European soil ever again.

I read some dutch news articles on this, and the propaganda is just insane. They all just quote the police spokesperson:

“The woman was pulled after which she fell to the ground”

“The police wanted to act quickly in a dynamic situation”

“The video only shows a part of the story”

“We have to look at the exact order of events”

But the good news: the police is gonna do an internal investigation.

The police is just a legal gang that protects the property rights of the elite.

If you think this is cowardice then you must not yet have developed object permanence.

This is the main role of the democratic party, keep the left down and keep the capitalist happy. They will cynically adopt any issue - that doesn’t threaten that prime directive - for a few months, be it black lives matter or trans rights, and then drop them again once it’s no longer convenient.

But if any real leftist candidate (with huge democratic support and winning based on broadly popular policies), ever comes close to power, all defense mechanisms kick in.

can you imagine what a truly progressive president could do. actually, no need to imagine, FDR did this on a federal level and created a new deal majority in the house that lasted until Reagan. this is also why the democrats will maintain an iron hold on the primary process, they literally risk their political future with a progressive president.

Calling it a culture war is so depressing. It’s basically making explicit: yes the genocide is happening, but politics is about how you feel about it and what words you use.

The symbolism is hilarious.

Bunch of mouth-foaming rightwing ideologues spending all their political capital on a monument directly implying that there are no victims of communism.

solve the problems that cause people to vote afd, not by drowning more people in the mediterranean, but by tackling their economic precarity.

sadly the capitalist-centrist alliance is not capable of this, economic precarity makes great workers.

also institute a general cordon sanitaire against the afd, don’t allow cdu to make the false equivalence between afd and die linke.

again, very hard for the capitalist-centrist alliance, die linke is namely the only party that actually posed a threat to them.

remember: none of the metrics duolingo keeps track of have anything to do with language proficiency. it’s a game not a learning tool.

yes: duolingo > doing nothing
but: any alternative learning method > duolingo

they stay relevant through viral marketing, that is often objectively funny, not through efficacy. the idea is that if you want to learn a language, your first thought is to use duolingo. then if it fails, you blame yourself: it cannot be the case that the most famous language-learning product doesn‘t actually help you learn a language.

Make clear to the democratic machine that the only way to win power, is by including the left in their coalition. This means not voting for them if they don’t, but organizing and voting in primaries to try to force them to do.

This is not an imaginary track, this has worked in the past. If you have two oligarchic parties, you solve nothing by (only) voting for the least bad one.

The S in CEO stands for sincerity.

He just foresees the need to fire a bunch of people (just as the market starts to get nervous about AI stocks) and he has already decided who it’s gonna be.

It‘s funny because historically America has always been the good guy, and Trump is the only anomaly. This is clear by the fact that the US is currently not involved in any proxy or trade war with any of the evil dictators on the other side.

Very sharp analysis by the cartoonist, they really must have a strong grip on reality.
