Stepsen wrote that October 11 should henceforth be celebrated in Europe as a public holiday for the liberation of the internet from Russian bots. In his assessment, this would significantly reduce the number of German and European users confronted with Russian propaganda in their timelines, which could facilitate a return to a democratic and fact-based discourse. #Internetfreiheit #Demokratie #FaktenbasierterDiskurs (translated)

Miss Eve criticized BMW over reports that the car manufacturer withdrew its leasing offer for the new President of the Saxony-Anhalt Parliament on the day of his election. If this is true, the question arises as to whether BMW makes business decisions dependent on the party affiliation of an officeholder, she wrote. She argued that for a company car funded by public means, efficiency and the requirements of the office should count. At the same time, she accused BMW of possibly applying political criteria in selecting customers and warned that these could choose other manufacturers. Miss Eve wrote that she drives a BMW 430i M Sport Coupe, but her leasing contract will soon expire. She could then choose another brand. In the event that BMW excludes customers because of their political views, she noted there are 60.5 million eligible voters in Germany, 30.5 percent potential AfD voters, and 18.5 million disgruntled customers. #BMW #Automobilindustrie #Kundenservice (translated)

Tobias Huch wrote that he had previously questioned the figure of around 73,000 deaths in Gaza mentioned by Hamas based on sources and facts. After accounting for the people who had died of natural causes, he arrived at about 50,000 dead, including an estimated 25,000 to at most 30,000 civilians. This corresponds to a ratio of one killed terrorist to one civilian; in urban wars, according to his portrayal, ratios of 1:7 to 1:19 are common. He concluded that Israel protects civilians and only targets the terror group. Huch also stated that he labeled the claim that the majority of those killed by Israel were women and children as an anti-Semitic lie. Now, according to his assessment, Hamas's numbers confirm his earlier statements: the actual death toll is around 53,000, with the majority being men of military age, there are virtually no starvation deaths, and the ratio of terrorists to civilians is 1:1. According to Huch, these are not Israeli figures, but figures from the Hamas Ministry of Health with a detailed breakdown of the causes of death and descriptions of the victims. #Gaza #Israel #Hamas (translated)
