AfD Sachsen-Anhalt gegen Rundfunk: Radio Corax dreht weiter auf Zu links und voller „Genderismus“: Die AfD möchte Geld beim Freien Radio Corax streichen. Wie geht der Sender damit um? Es gibt schon eine Strategie.

Freie Radios sind ein wichtiger Teil der Presselandschaft in Deutschland. Mein ersten journalistischen Gehversuche konnte ich bei einem solchen Sender machen. Dass die rechtsextreme AfD nun @radiocorax.social.anoxinon.de.ap.brid.gy die Mittel streichen will, ist ein Angriff auf die Pressefreiheit.

P.s. US Republicans ≠ conservatism

US Democrat policy is what qualifies as conservative in lots of other places.

The messed up two party system in a country sliding rapidly into fascism is not a metric that applies universally.

You're not the better radical, you're entrenched in shit politics.

Great how any post here gets flooded by USians who have never seen anything beyond their messed up two party system.

Conservatism is bigger than the Republican party. Addressing it in a limited framework is not addressing the bigger issue.

You can argue that it's somehow what conservatism has always been about and you may win some "being theoretically right according to this or that thinky thought person"award. But strategically all you are doing is shooting yourself in the foot.

Minimizing the radicalism of some ideas is not a win.

any current day conservatives who do not hold that more radical position. And yes, they do exist. It also fails to highlight the radicalism of the idea of stripping groups of people of their rights and moves the overton window in their favour, by pretending the position is more mainstream than it is

ok, let me elaborate for the "this is conservatism" folks: I am not going to argue about the definition of conservatism, that will get us exactly nowhere except for an online wank fest. There is a strategic argument though: Saying conservatives always wanted to revoke women's suffrage will alienate

and women have had the vote for 100 years now. What may have been conservative 100 years ago is reactionary today. We're not living 100 years ago, we are living today.

we need to bring back reactionary as a thing. Shit like that is not conservative

🔥: “In the 1940’s, Norwegians made & wore red pointed hats with a tassel as a form of visual protest against Nazi occupation of their country. Within two years, the Nazis made these protest hats illegal & punishable by law to wear, make, or distribute…we felt it appropriate to revisit this design.”

Deepfakes, die Frauen ohne Einverständnis entkleiden, erniedrigen oder in pornografisches Material einfügen, sind seit Jahren ein Riesenproblem. Grok ist nur ein Teil davon.

In this thread I’m providing you links to the names of photographers who are on the ground with me, who I trust and like, and whose work I admire.

If you don’t like Instagram, I don’t really know what to tell you but there’s nothing I can do. Sorry. You’ll have to figure that one out on your own!

waiting is fair. Waiting means not saying one way or another. Not spreading a thing someone said before knowing if it's true.

Spotlight graph of X discourse about the shooting/killing of a man by ICE agents on January 24 in Minneapolis. Graph showing X posts along time (X axis) and cumulative number of X posts shared by that time (Y axis). Post counts are estimated (by Brandwatch) and include both X posts and reposts where the text contained terms indicating the post was about the *shooting AND the video* during the time period. Individual posts are plotted on the graph, sized by the number of reposts that post received (during the time period). Plotted posts are limited to posts that received >1 reposts.

Two posts are highlighted.

One by @gremloe (1/24/2026, 12:31:31 PM EDT): “It appears from zooming in just moments before ICE/CBP shoot yet another US citizen, one agent removes the victims firearm from his waste holster. The victim was UNARMED when he was shot multiple times. This is a state execution. Again.”

A second by @bennyjohnson (1/24/2026, 1:21:28 PM EDT): “Tim Walz just a few days ago was climbing on the gate of his mansion urging protesters to keep causing “trouble” and fighting ICE. An armed man just attacked agents and got killed. See how that works? Minnesota officials are fueling this.”

Meldung des STANDARD: "Sturm der Kritik: ICE nimmt Fünfjährigen in Gewahrsam" - Foto von dem 5 Jahre alten Kind, das verängstigt schaut

Meldung des STANDARD: "Sturm der Kritik: ICE nimmt Fünfjährigen in Gewahrsam" - Foto von dem 5 Jahre alten Kind, das verängstigt schaut

Da gerade (zu Recht) viel Empörung zu lesen ist über die Festname des 5-Jährigen in den USA, ein kleiner Reminder:

Letztes Jahr haben deutsche Polizisten ein 10-jähriges syrisches Mädchen aus ihrer Schule gezogen, um sie abzuschieben.

Mit ihr wurden 2025 über 3000 Minderjährige aus 🇩🇪 abgeschoben.

einfache Lösung re Nerven wäre es, ein Stichwort zu wählen, dass in jeden Post kommt. Leute, die das nicht sehen wollen, können das dann einfach muten. "X" ist da eher unpraktisch. Xitter oder sowas könnte funktionieren.
