9. November, eigenartiger Tag in der deutschen Geschichte...

Wenn Menschen in Ausbildung nach Afghanistan abgeschoben werden, muss man sich schon fragen, was aus unserem moralischen Kompass geworden ist, aus unserer Vorstellung von Menschenrechten, deren Schutz ein integraler Bestandteil unserer Demokratie ist...

"These findings...support the public health strategy of COVID-19 vaccination in children and young people to mitigate the more frequent and persistent risks associated with SARS-CoV-2 infection." #COVID19 #Vaccination #vaccine #vaccines #MedSky 🧪

"When you make it difficult to separate opinions from facts, it becomes a lot easier to manipulate people." #democracy #PoliSky

Life is often very complicated, but physical activity and #exercise turn repeatedly and reliably out to be beneficial under virtual all circumstances, including Alzheimer's disease. #health #Alzheimers 🧪 #MedSky

An escalation...

Future generations will not look back fondly on us... #climate #ClimateChange #ClimateAction #ClimateCrisis #PoliSky 🧪 #EconSky

If #FreeSpeech means anything, the same rules have to apply to everyone. Personally, I do not see the appeal in using the right of free speech as a right to offend others. Meaningful exchange requires respect and courtesy. Who would be keen to interact with someone, who insults them? #PoliSky

A scary question... Why are people not concerned about the threats to our democracies? #democracy #DemocracyUnderThreat #DemocracyMatters

“...But every miserable fool who has nothing at all of which he can be proud adopts, as a last resource, pride in the nation to which he belongs; he is ready and glad to defend all its faults and follies tooth and nail, thus reimbursing himself for his own inferiority." Arthur Schopenhauer #PoliSky

#ToughTimes, #PseudoSolutions, #SimpleSolutions, #nationalism, #jingoism, #Hate, #Xenophobia, #Othering... Anyone noticing the similarities? What could possibly go wrong? #PoliSky www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/p...

#Evidenz statt #Misinformation. #COVID19

It is all happening in plain sight. Where is the outcry? Do we not care about #democracy?

I am surprised and astounded by the lack of appreciation for democracy and democratic values... #PoliSky

"This turned out to be a tipping point for Sarah and there was no stopping her. Her whole life had been blighted by having to see so many brown and black faces on TV. It was like a form of torture for her." We need more #love, #empathy, and #acceptance. #racism #PoliSky

"And nobody ever needed freedom of speech to say something nice." The debate about #FreedomOfSpeech, about what you can(not) say, divides society. If you want to interact with people in an earnest, meaningful way, you will have no desire to insult them. #PoliSky

A celebration of the life of Jaroslav Cinatl, a cell culture pioneer and visionary, who worked in the lab until the age of 96, and a moral example, who defended the truth under great personal sacrifice against #authoritarian #censorship, influence, and control. #AcademisSky 🧪 #PoliSky

Well... #AI #ArtificialIntelligence #artificial_intelligence 🧪 #PoliSky

So kann man das machen... #gendern

Schade, dass vergessen wird, zu betonen, dass (lt. d. zitierten Studie) dieser Anstieg fast ausschließlich auf Ausbau der Kinder-Tagesbetreuung (und damit auf Gesetzesänderungen) zurückgeht... Datenkompetenz und Schalgzeilen-Bashing...

#Evidence that #mRNA #COVID19 #vaccination increases the efficacy of immune checkpoint blockade in non-small cell #lung #cancer patients. #Cancer #CancerResearch #vaccine #vaccines 🧪 #MedSky

With global warming, the mosquitoes are coming. And sooner or later also the diseases that they can transmit... #climate #ClimateAction #ClimateCrisis 🧪 #MedSky #PoliSky

This morning my ChatGPT quota was inexplicably exhausted. It took a while but I pieced it together. Voice mode somehow got activated when I went to bed. The bot then engaged in a 10 hour conversation with my snoring dog, answering questions the pup wasn’t asking and praising him for his insight.

Commuting and pardoning political allies and supporters is a sign of #authoritarian and #despotic rulers. Why should any individual be allowed to commute or pardon people, who have been convicted in a proper trial? #democracy #authoritarianism #despotism #PoliSky

"To conduct the assessment, the authors applied the same analytic methods used by US intelligence agencies to assess the fragility of democracies abroad but turned them inward for what the group called a “first-of-its-kind” analysis of domestic democratic decline." #PoliSky

More #evidence that #COVID19 #vaccines are safe in pregnancy and do not increase the risk of birth defects. #Covid #vaccination 🧪 #MedSky

Always a privilege, when we can contribute to research projects with our RCCL collection cell lines. #Cancer #Resistance #DrugResistance 🧪 #MedSky

Imagine a world, in which people were rewarded for making the world a better place instead of for exploiting weaknesses in the system for financial gain. #capitalism #democracy #PoliSky #EconSky

Leaving the #ECHR is a pseudo-solution with no prospect for a tangible positive impact on people's lives. But it would cause further divisions in an unsafe world. The real issues are the #climatecrisis, the consequences of the financial crisis/COVID-19, population ageing, the wars. #PoliSky

The only European countries that are not members of the European Convention human rights are Russia and Belarus... What else is there to know? #HumanRights #HumanRightsForAll #Humanity #PoliSky

Leaving the European Convention of Human Rights is morally wrong. If we abandon human rights, because they are inconvenient, we have never earnestly believed in them... #HumanRights #HumanRightsForAll #Humanity #PoliSky

We need more #love, not #hate! #PoliSky

We are moving backwards towards an age of superstition. The main question is why? #misinformation #disinformation #MedSky 🧪 #PoliSky

It is always nice to contribute to a research study with our Resistant Cancer Cell Line (RCCL) collection models. 🧪 #MedSky #AcademicSky

Who tries to coerce universities is not interested in the #truth, but tries to replace evidence and facts by ideology and beliefs. #academia #AcademicSky #PoliSky

"Vaccination as a new form of cardiovascular prevention". #Vaccination #Vaccine #Vaccines #MedSky 🧪

Nice to see that there are still people, who are prepared to state the obvious... #Migration #migrants #PoliSky

You only believe in #FreeSpeech, if the same rules apply to everyone. #FreedomOfSpeech #PoliSky

It is difficult to argue with people who have no appreciation for the truth. #misinformation #disinformation #PoliSky 🧪 #MedSky

The far-right play book on #SocialMedia. #PoliSky

Donald Trump has encouraged "...his attorney general to target political opponents. He has suggested the goverment should revoke TV licences to bring a biased mainstream media to heel. He has targeted law firms he sees as adversaries..." #PoliSky

“We’ve seen a nine-year-old black girl shot at in a racist attack. Chinese takeaways defaced. That sends a shiver down the spine of every right-minded Brit. This is not who we are.” #UK #HumanRights #Solidarity #PoliSky

A very worthwhile read: "What mattered above all else is being able to hear both sides of an argument and learn the facts behind them - without having that information controlled by governments, rich and powerful media owners, or anyone else." #FreeSpeech #MeSpeech #PoliSky

An important and timely reminder that the rules of #FreeSpeech must apply to everyone in the same way. #PoliSky

Stark number, 56% of the #UK electorate would like to reverse #Brexit, nearly 60% want to stay in #ECHR, 69% think that #migrants have not undermined Britain's culture. Why is this not reflected in the public discourse? Why is the political narrative exclusively shaped by a loud minority? #PoliSky

This is stark from by a self-proclaimed defender of #FreeSpeech. Free speech is an integral part of #Democracy. If you are serious about it, you will defend all free speech in the same way. Silencing critical voices is censorship. #PoliSky

#Measles is a dangerous disease. However, we could eradicate it by #vaccination. #vaccine #vaccines #MedSky #PoliSky
