Marc Friedrich wrote that France is bankrupt, characterized by unrest, and has a state quota of 57 percent. At the same time, he believes the country needs more and more taxes and sources of revenue. In the finance committee of the National Assembly, an exit tax on cryptocurrencies has been decided: Those leaving the country with more than 800,000 euros in Bitcoin or other cryptocurrencies will have to pay; coins on exchanges will also be affected. Starting from January 1, 2027, exchanging into stablecoins will also be considered a taxable sale. The proposal will go into the budget debate on October 13. Friedrich warned that first money will be devalued, then assets will be taxed that people use to escape from this money, and finally the escape itself will be taxed. He wrote that the planned tax is part of creeping capital controls; France is just the beginning, and Germany is closely watching the development. He described Bitcoin as freedom rather than a speculative object and wrote that the state wants to control it for this reason. He advised diversifying assets and also thinking across different countries and legal systems. #Frankreich #Bitcoin #Steuern (translated)

Marc Felix Serrao wrote that the SPD and the Greens do not defend the fire wall out of concern for democracy, but out of self-interest. If it falls, the CDU would no longer be dependent on left-wing partners, according to Serrao; everything else he described as political theater. #Politik #Demokratie #CDU (translated)

Sarah Zickler compared the promise, under her chancellorship, to neither raise taxes nor abandon the debt brake, with the statement that no one intends to build a wall.

Wolfgang Kubicki criticized that in Berlin a coalition must first agree on principles for dealing with anti-Semitism and organized crime. This was "complete madness," he wrote, and reminded of a declaration of intent by the same party not to want to build a wall. The Left has always wasted paper. For Berlin under "Red-Red-Green," difficult years are ahead, Kubicki wrote. The alliance stands for uncertainty, fear, and resentment and has little to offer the city. They want to counter that with confidence; he is convinced that the liberal urban society cannot be broken. #Berlin #Politik #Gesellschaft (translated)

NIUS reported that Hannes Kuhnwald, a farmer and agricultural influencer from Mecklenburg-Vorpommern, warned of a crisis in agriculture. According to him, never have so many businesses given up as currently, especially small farms. He cited rising energy costs, low margins, and producer prices, which have not increased inflation-adjusted in ten years, as reasons. Support programs without scaling according to farm size exacerbated the situation, said Kuhnwald. To preserve agriculture, small farms must be specifically protected, he demanded. https://t.co/qVy5QnfyfS #Landwirtschaft #Agrarpolitik #Kleinbetriebe (translated)

Marc Friedrich criticized that German is not being used as the language so that young children could learn it from the beginning and be integrated. Instead, another "wall" is being erected, which in his view will further strengthen parallel worlds and fears. #Integration #Sprache #Gesellschaft (translated)

Waldemar Hartmann criticized the reactions to the election of Tobias Rausch as the president of the state parliament in Saxony-Anhalt. The federal SPD demonstrated with Boris Pistorius, whom Hartmann referred to as the "war minister," at Bebel-Platz and sang the national anthem. The CDU is looking for "undercover agents" within its own ranks, while NGOs warned and threatened with actions, he wrote. Hartmann saw the actual political scandal in Berlin: SPD and Greens continue to talk with Die Linke about a common political future. He mentioned antisemitism, similarities with criminal clans, and connections to terrorist organizations. The federal SPD points to the responsibility of the state association, while the Greens remained duplicitous, Hartmann wrote. Their position contradicts the importance that the green-left milieu otherwise attributes to the issue of stance. #Demokratie #Politik #Deutschland (translated)

"If you do not lay the first brick at some point, you can gladly discuss the roof structure: it will do no good - and what we are doing here now is the foundation. 'With the 'Infraplan', we are looking at renovation, digitization, new construction, and expansion much more collaboratively than before,' said Lange." #Infrastruktur #Bahn #Infraplan (translated)

Dimetra wrote that on this day it was not only about a president of parliament, but also that a wall had fallen.

Manaf Hassan wrote that it was not the firewall that had fallen, but a structure that, according to him, had allowed the old parties for decades to exchange positions without making policy for the country and its people.

Reza Pahlavi Communications published a statement that had reportedly been signed by 133 Iranian political prisoners and activists. In it, the signatories thanked the Friedrich Naumann Foundation for Freedom for awarding the Freedom Prize 2026 to the Iranian people and for commissioning Prince Reza Pahlavi to accept it. The signatories wrote that during the protests on January 8 and 9, 2026, people had demanded an end to the Islamic Republic and more freedom. Published reports and estimates indicated tens of thousands of deaths and thousands of arrests. They stated that executions continued and death sentences were imposed in part based on confessions coerced under torture and in unfair trials. The authors referred to Reza Pahlavi as their political representative and supported him in leading a transition to a free, democratic Iran. They wrote that the Iranian people should decide on the future form of government in a free vote. They urged governments and international institutions to prevent executions, release political prisoners, and grant independent observers access to prisons. Additionally, they called for an end to business with the Islamic Republic, for a transparent use of frozen Iranian assets to support the freedom movement, and for better access to secure internet, including through Starlink. The letter was dated October 2026. #Iran #Freiheit #Menschenrechte (translated)

Die Parabel vom Sämann /der Talente - Parabel 1/2 von Octavia E. Butler übersetzt von Dietlind Falk Wir schreiben das Jahr 2024. Klimawandel, Wirtschaftskrisen und ein politischer Rechtsruck haben das Leben in den USA von Grund auf verändert. Lauren Olamina lebt mit ihrer Familie in Kalifornien, relativ sicher vor Plünderern hinter hohen Mauern. Wer überleben will, muss Stärke zeigen, deswegen hütet Lauren ihr Geheimnis sorgfältig: Sie leidet an Hyperempathie – sie empfindet die Emotionen eines anderen Menschen so tief, als wären es ihre eigenen. Doch wenn sie will, dass ihre Stimme gehört wird, darf sie sich nicht länger hinter den Mauern verstecken. Also macht sich Lauren auf die Reise nach Norden, wo es noch Sicherheit und Jobs gibt. Was als Kampf ums Überleben beginnt, wird schnell zu sehr viel mehr: Der Geburt einer neuen Religion – und einer atemberaubenden Vision für die Zukunft der Menschheit.

The author wrote that in the autumn of 1989, people in the GDR peacefully, bravely, and united brought down a wall. This lesson must still apply today.
