He drove me back into using RSS after more than a decade for staying up to date. Much better for the mental health. Thankfully, since Wordpress and also some other CMS have the RSS feature enabled by default, many websites have it even if they’re not advertising it.

Inevitable is a strong word when talking about a Russian victory. Putin has been grinding his teeth for two years in a three day operation and almost fell to a coup last year. He is also 71 years old.

I‘m fine with discussion. But I see little value in discussing a text with someone who has not read it. We don’t have to guess their intentions when they already wrote it down quite clearly. Neither do I see a reason to doubt their intentions based on timing. Antisemitism (violence against Jews) in Germany has been sharply on the rise in the last few years and it is the job of the Landeszentrale to debunk some of the myths that foster it.

The main point of the paper is to correct these five myths about Israel and that is what it does. It is very focused on this and one-sided, obviously. One might think it is bad taste to ignore current events. Maybe. But it does exactly what it says and I found it informative.

Are we supposed to learn and debate history while a people is exterminated?

Yes. That might be a good first step. It takes about one hour. There is much one can critique Israel for - let’s stick to the truths.

Are we reading the same link? You're doing quite some mind acrobatics here by picking various small quotes/passages from only the start of the text and putting your own spin on it. This narrative is in your head, not in the article.

This is for the most part a very good brochure and the uninformed people here that only read a faulty summary or headline should probably read it, then make up their mind instead of being instinctively angry. Especially the part where it talks about the misconceptions with the typical „expansion comparison maps“ and what they really show was informative.

That is the relevant date, isn’t it? This news piece was written after he became president.

do you think russia has been boycotting zelensky even before he was presient? Why would they make such an effort

Your example is from two years after he became president. Not from the time before.

Russian propaganda campaign against Ukraine did not just start when the latest invasion began. Why would you assume said timing to be indicative of anything?

Also, a source for your claim would be appreciated. I do not remember reading anything of the kind before the current phase of the war.

Mir leuchtet die Argumentation nicht ein. Das sind ja keine zufälligen randomisierten Stichproben, sondern gezielte Prüfungen bei Verdachtsfällen. Ein Anstieg der Trefferquote „trotz“ weniger Tests kann also genauso gut auf geschicktere Auswahl hindeuten und lässt eher wenig Rückschlüsse auf die allgemeine Sachlage zu.

Ähnlich wie bei Corona: Wenn man morgens die ganze Belegschaft testet, hatte man nur wenige Positive. Testet man nur noch die, die Husten, steigt die Positivrate obwohl man weniger Personen testet. Testet man nur die, die Husten und auch Fieber haben, verstärkt sich der Effekt noch weiter, usw.

Feedbro, it's a browser extension.

I‘m using a RSS reader with rule based filters to remove uninteresting articles (to me) and upvote or downvote articles with certain keywords (for me). That way I can aggregate lots of media and have my own personal feed.

It takes some time to set up and fine-tune, though.

You can. He is not being imprisoned or even punished. But other people are not obligated to do business with him, either. That is their freedom.
