The author described the situation of mathematicians as a disaster. He wrote that their intellectual work is devalued by AI, and they are becoming its assistants. This could also happen to many other academics in the future. At the same time, in his assessment, respect for human intellectual achievement as well as their income is declining. #Mathematik #Akademiker #KünstlicheIntelligenz #None (translated)
Sven W. Tritschler wrote that if it were not about German jobs, he would have wished the decision-makers in the German industry their fate; he used a derogatory term for them. Tobias Rausch should request a Tesla, which he believes is better and probably built to a larger extent in Germany than a BMW. Tritschler also addressed Elon Musk and BMW. #deutscheIndustrie #Tesla #BMW (translated)
U.M. OSINT announced that he had informed the responsible district association of Bündnis 90/Die Grünen about his departure from the party in the afternoon. He stated that he was left-liberal and had originally become a member because the Greens had become more liberal. However, he can no longer support the development of the party since the last legislative period, particularly its positioning on Palestine, left-wing extremism, and terrorism. He cited the concessions made by the Greens to Die Linke in Berlin as a decisive reason, which he described as vague and unsubstantial. He criticized the Greens for not demanding any concrete consequences, such as the resignation or expulsion of Koçak, the dissolution of the Neukölln Linke association, or the working group on Palestine solidarity. He referred to alleged connections of the group to terrorism apologists and possible links to the PFLP. U.M. OSINT accused the Greens of effectively granting amnesty to left-wing enemies of democracy and terrorism supporters for the sake of maintaining power. In his view, the party has thereby forfeited any right to demand other parties distance themselves from the AfD. He also criticized the SPD and predicted that for them, it would increasingly be about achieving double-digit results in upcoming elections. Furthermore, he criticized political compromises made to maintain participation in government and warned of lasting damage to Berlin, particularly regarding investments and jobs. He stated that he no longer wants to disclose future party memberships publicly and expressed curiosity about the upcoming elections in Berlin and North Rhine-Westphalia. #Grüne #Politik #Deutschland (translated)

Gert Ewen Ungar reminded that Russia's President Vladimir Putin was born on October 7, 1952, and congratulated him on his birthday. From his perspective, Putin is a clever, far-sighted, and freedom-loving politician who represents the interests of Russia and Russian society. For Europe, Putin has been a "gift of fate," which, however, Western Europeans did not know how to make use of, Ungar wrote. Putin's goal remains the establishment of a European security architecture in which all states can exist safely – including Russia before what he sees as an aggressive West. #Putin #Geburtstag #Politik (translated)
In the coming months, Europe's fate will be decided as 2027 marks a super election year with pivotal elections in several EU countries, starting with the early elections in Spain on November 29, where the conservative Partido Popular is favored and a possible coalition with the EU-critical party Vox is on the table. #Superwahljahr2027 #EU #Parteien (translated)
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)

The author wrote that after Merz, Education Minister Prien has now also arrived in Kiev. At the same time, he claimed that no child in Germany speaks German in schools anymore and that the level is dropping dramatically. Prien emphasized at the train station in Kiev that she wanted to draw attention, especially to the fate of children, with her visit. The contribution ended at this point. #Bildung #Kiew #Kinderrechte #DE #UA (translated)

Evi Denz contradicted an assessment by the Chancellor and Iris. The outcome of the war could possibly be relevant for a "financial washing machine" or a narrative to explain political incapacity, but not for the fate of the country, she wrote. #Politik #Krieg #Deutschland (translated)
Dennis Riehle thanked everyone for the numerous and empathetic messages he received after returning from the hospital. He wrote that he did not expect such a large response and therefore could not respond to everyone individually. He added that the appreciation for him and his work makes him humble. Riehle reported that the diagnoses he received over the past two and a half weeks made it difficult for him to connect with his previous reliability. At times, he was tempted by the thought of withdrawing from politics, conflict, and division. He realized that the dynamics and fast pace of the news were only conditionally beneficial to his cognitive and neurological state. Therefore, he wants to slow down the pace. He will stay as long as fate allows. #Dankbarkeit #Gesundheit #Empathie (translated)
The author described 36 years of German unity as a day of freedom and reflection. He recalled at least 140 people who, according to him, lost their lives at the Berlin Wall because they wanted to live in freedom. Their fate serves as a reminder to reflect on freedom and democracy, he wrote. https://t.co/zS1o5NMAPr #DeutscheEinheit #Freiheit #Demokratie #DE (translated)
Björn Höcke wrote on the Day of German Unity on October 3rd that unity means not only a common state but also the equal belonging of all citizens, regardless of their political stance. The pension debate conveys to people with a GDR biography that their life’s achievements count for less, and during the Corona measures, the state split society even down to families, he explained. He also criticized that vaccination status has been made a measure of social belonging. Höcke accused unspecified individuals of leveling accusations against millions of people for linking their voting decisions to the crimes of Buchenwald. He dismissed such comparisons as politically motivated slurs, including one made by an older man. Cohesion requires respecting the decisions of others, even if one disagrees with them, he wrote. At the same time, Höcke pointed to business closures, families' worries about the future of their children, and a trust damaged by political failure. War rhetoric intensifies these fears, he claimed. The AfD extends a hand to all who do not want to come to terms with this; the recent election results show that more and more people want to take their fate into their own hands, he wrote. Germany will also overcome the walls that are currently being erected between citizens, Höcke added. #Einheit #Zusammenhalt #Deutschland (translated)
Die Hexen von Wild Hill von Kirsten Miller Übersetzt vonJasmin Humburg Ein spektakulärer und humorvoller Roman über moderne Hexen, die dem Patriarchat den Kampf angesagt haben Schon viel zu lange haben Wirtschaftsbosse, Medienmogule und Tech Bros die Welt an den Rand des Abgrunds getrieben - höchste Zeit sich zu wehren. Doch dafür müssen drei Frauen mit besonderen Kräften ihr Schicksal annehmen und sich verbünden. Nach einer Tragödie haben Brigid und Phoebe Duncan ihr Zuhause verlassen, das ihre Vorfahrinnen über Generationen geprägt haben. Getrennt durch Schuld, Schweigen und alte Vorwürfe, verbindet Wild Hill die Schwestern jedoch stärker, als sie ahnen. Denn eine uralte Macht hat Brigid, Phoebe und Phoebes Tochter Sybil auserwählt, um eine magische Revolution anzuführen und endlich wieder Ordnung zu schaffen zwischen Mensch und Natur. Doch nur gemeinsam können sie sich ihrer Familiengeschichte stellen - und über die Zukunft von Wild Hill und der Menschheit entscheiden. Eine generationenübergreifende Geschichte über drei mächtige Hexen - und ihren Kampf für das Überleben der Welt.
The CDU resembles a headless, encircled troop in the field: leaderless, aimless, without hope. The only thing that could help this party is a capable general. A strategist whom the people follow, and who dares to break out of a strategically untenable situation. A general who openly states that such an operation will also entail losses – but the only way is to preserve the remaining substance of the party of Konrad Adenauer. If someone of this caliber does not emerge from the ranks of the Union soon, this party is lost and shares the fate of its people in Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania as a whole. And that of all its sister parties in Europe. #CDU #Politik #Führung (translated)
Statt dem von Ronzheimer & Piatov herbeigeraunten „Kanzlertausch“ kam bisher nur der Rückzug auf Raten von Spahn. Eine gewisse Ironie des Schicksals ist es, dass ausgerechnet die BILD Spahn jetzt schon das zweite Mal innerhalb weniger Wochen aus Versehen selbst erledigt hat. 9/ #Politik #Deutschland #Spahn
