Oldie but goodie

"We've moved beyond the idea that women wearing pants is a problem. Women wearing pants is powerful, it's strong, everybody accepts it, and it's associated with the patriarchy, it's associated with being male. The minute a man puts on a dress it's disgusting, so what are you saying? Men are strong, women are disgusting? I'm not doing that anymore. I'm done with that. I'm a man in a dress and if I feel like wearing a dress I'm gonna wear one." - Billy Porter

Beliebte Frage an meine Studis während der Vorlesung: "Wer von euch nutzt KEIN WhatsApp". Üblicherweise bleiben alle Hände unten.

Auf das »Warum« angesprochen kommt die Antwort : "Bei den anderen Messengern ist (fast) niemand...".

Meine Antwort: "Korrekt und es ist eure Aufgabe als verantwortungsvolle Informatiker, eure Familie und Freunde auf Alternativen wie Conversations, Signal und Co. aufmerksam zu machen."

"A Google employee spoke with the Bay Area Reporter on the condition of anonymity about the current mood among LGBTQ Googlers, saying by phone that, "I'm really worried that they [company leadership] don't know how unsustainable this is. They want to have it both ways: to monetize the engagement that comes from really odious content, but to bear no responsibility for it. And all of us queers who work here see how they're getting away with making money off people who hate us while doing nothing to stop them. Meanwhile, most queer creators' channels are demonetized or marked 'adult' because they use words like 'trans.' Google has no right to be at Pride. They're just capitalists. They don't care."

Weil man es viel zu selten sagt und klare Kante zeigt:

- Kein Mensch ist illegal, Refugees welcome!
- Impfen schützt!
- Homöpathie ist Placebo!
- Der Klimawandel ist real!
- Rad statt Auto!
- Esst weniger Fleisch! Danke Vegetarier und Veganer!
- Antisemitismus, Homo- und Transfeindlichkeit sind scheiße!
- Feminismus ist gut!
- Kein Fußbreit! Danke Antifa!

So a person in the fediverse made the thinking error that climate activism hurts the Third World. Let me explain in a few quick points why that this utter bullshit:

- the term Third World is a imperialist term from the Cold War.

- poorer countries , so called undeveloped countries or periphery countries (or whatever you want to call them), will be impacted the most by #climateChange! They already are!

- those countries are indeed negatively impacted by unfair climate policies from government leaders (NOT activists).

- This doesn't mean that those countries should have the right to continue CO² emissions, but that so called developed countries should help these countries with their energy transition, especially cause the developed countries (the West) are mostly responsible for climate change.

- most climate activists are very aware about these facts. That's why activists talk about #ClimateJustice! Especially radical activists (like me) are fully aware that climate change is racist!

- So don't frame climate activists that they serve the Western elites! It's the opposite!

Just a reminder.
