#qatar political issue
At least there is a team with “the balls” to do something visual in support, even if there are repercussions!
Consider the cowardly German approach (which is now followed by England, Wales, Belgium, Denmark, the Netherlands, and Switzerland: Manuel Neuer supposedly should wear some “One-Love” armband to show LGBT support—we all know where Qatar stands in this regard. Mind your, not to rainbow colors, widely recognized, but simply a “colorful” armband.
That is now off the table (or rather arm): Mr. Neuer will not wear anything that might upset FIFA or the homophobic hosts.
Guess, what I am not watching. ;-)

Interesting article with the founder of #mastodon in #wired magazine
Finally, I just deleted my #twitter account after around six years of activity. But enough is enough: I prefer to be “enlightened” to just being “ignited”.
Cheers.
Wat ik heb gelezen is: 'Tradition is peer pressure from the dead.'
Vond ik wel treffend. ;)
now that our server qoto.org is (temporarily) not listed in the main mastodon website joinmastodon.org, it seems convenient to promote our server directly in the birdsite. Therefore please follow the link below and like or retweet the post, so that it will be ranked higher in the search field of the #birdsite

Another good video on #sortition comes from David van Reybrouk, who reminds us that “polling” is not the same as “deliberation”.
Looking at the amount of money spent to win elections and at the result of polling the public (“reinstate Trump anyone?”) “on the spur of the moment” (vox populi, vox dei?) I would like to remind us all that there still is a forgotten, but classic alternative out there, which according to Aristotle is the only, truly democratic one:
Why I believe business #sociopath manipulator #Elon #Musk is a very dangerous man.
Think with me, on the Trump ban.
Now #liar Elon can blame the people for the return of the #liar #racist #fascist #KKK man Donald Trump.
#Hypocrite Musk calls it "free" speech, but fires anyone who criticises him.
Elon skips his responsibility,
by leaving the return of Donald #Trump on the platform to the users through a poll.
#twitter #TwitterMigration
As if that justifies te choice. Elon said, "Vox populi vox Dei", the voice of the people.
Again we are back in the Roman era with emperor Nero, who organised bread and circuses with gladiators for the people.
And again introducing more #hate and #lies to the platform, this only leads to more polarisation of our society.

Da heute wieder viel über die #Strompreisbremse gesprochen wurde, hier einfach noch mal unser #DIW Berlin Explainer "#Strommarkt erklärt: Preisbildung, Preiskrise und die „Strompreisbremse“: Ein Beitrag zur aktuellen Debatte über Eingriffe in den #Strommarkt"
Darin erklären wir auch noch mal, warum die Merit-Order nichts schlechtes ist, und warum die "Strompreisbremse" eigentlich anders heißen sollte.
