フンムスってラテン語のhumusと語源的に関係したりするのだろうかと思ったけれど、wiktionary見る限りでは特にそういうことはなさそうだった。かなり土っぽいけどね

„Europa ist heute nicht primär bedroht, weil es „zu viel Sozialstaat“ hätte oder „zu wenig Wettbewerbsfähigkeit“. Es ist bedroht, weil es seine eigene Handlungsfähigkeit preisgegeben hat – aus Angst vor Inflation, Schulden, Regelbruch. Die Politik hat sich selbst zum Sachwalter von Haushaltsregeln degradiert, während strategische Fragen – Digitalisierung, Infrastruktur, Energie, Sicherheit, soziale Kohäsion – an Märkte oder private Machtzentren ausgelagert wurden.
Europa hat sich nicht zu Tode reguliert,
es hat sich zu Tode entsolidarisiert und zu Tode gespart.
Und genau dieses politische Vakuum macht autoritäre, oligarchische und libertäre Fantasien anschlussfähig.
Darauf lauert Trump.“
(Wilhelm Unrau)

I’m incredibly excited to serve on this coming term’s Steering Council!

Working on CPython has been one of the most rewarding endeavours of my career. I’m so grateful to everyone who voted & honoured that so many placed their trust in me.

I’m looking forward to working alongside my fellow council members to serve the community, support contributors, and help guide Python over the next year. Congratulations to @dongheenaDonghee Na :python: @Yhg1sThomas Wouters @pumpichankBarry Warsaw, and Pablo as well! 🎉

I wrote about the unprecedented mass censorship and surveillance laws that Congress is trying to ram through in the name of “protecting kids” and how none of this is about protecting kids. In fact, these laws cause great harm to all of us, for Zeteo zeteo.com/p/social-media-child

Social Media Bans Aren’t About Protecting Kids. They’re About Censorship and Surveillance

US politicians want to replicate Australia's draconian law prohibiting children under 16 from using social media. But experts say such bans will actually make kids 'significantly less safe online.'

Fedi MTV is coming... This Xmas! Fuck yeah.

"It’s late capitalism, and artists have nowhere to go. Where’s left? Where can people discover new, risk-taking art? ...

We need a real human place for real human video art. So, we made one."

Why must we FIGHT? Because inaction effectively sides with those causing harm:

"Neutrality helps the oppressor, never the victim. Silence encourages the tormentor, never the tormented. Sometimes we must interfere. When human lives are endangered, when human dignity is in jeopardy, national borders and sensitivities become irrelevant" -Elie Wiesel

"If you're neutral in situations of injustice, you have chosen the side of the oppressor" -Desmond Tutu

The UK Online Safety Act returns to Parliament.

It's enabled iffy age-assurance providers, wrongly censored content and shuttered small sites while doing nothing to tackle the dominance of major platforms.

The heartbreaking abuse of “law and order” continues. It’s unbelieveable how these ICE agents are “detaining” people despite TRYING to go through the kafkaesque nightmare they devised.

All I can say is if you’re a US Citizen, remember we’re all humans, and don’t vote for facists.

And if you’re not, don’t visit. Seriously, don’t even think about it. mastodon.social/@obrhoff/11571

There is a lot of criticism in Germany directed at privacy protection, known as Datenschutz. The idea behind it developed after World War Two, when the Nazis used centrally stored administrative data to identify and round up political enemies, including Jews. Now compare this to the United States, where this historical experience is not the same. Authorities there more readily access large amounts of data to determine who is considered an enemy. #facism #maga #ww2 https://www.newsweek.com/wife-detained-green-card-interview-ice-san-diego-11176819
