Ich, Anfang des letzten Paragraphen: Wow, Respekt, obwohl Axel Springer sieht der Mann das Problem, politische Parteien und Gegner können durch KI die sozialen Medien in ungeahntem Maße beeinflussen, unermüdliche Troll-Armeen die gnadenlos jede ungewünsche Ansicht automatisiert totdiskutieren.

Ich,Ende des letzten Paragraphen: Oh… … …er denkt dass die KI-Copyright-Thematik die Regierungen dazu zwingen wird, noch üblere Urheberrechts-Daumenschrauben einzuführen und daß er dann wieder Geld von Verlinkungen und Suchmaschinen einklagen kann.

Will die Frau mit ihrem Buch den Begriff “Woke” bestimmen? Frag’ Zehn dieser Vögel was “Woke” ist und du bekommst Zehn verschiedene Antworten. Der Begriff ist doch längst zum Platzhalter für alles geworden, gegen das Rechte, Konservative und andere empfängliche Opfer aufgewiegelt werden.

Konservativer 1970: “In dem Film sind zwei Männer die Händchen halten! Ich find’ Schwulensex eklig, deshalb sollten wir eine Schlafzimmerpolizei einführen, die private Interaktion aller Menschen überwachen, einschränken und die entdeckten Schwulen einer Gehirnwäsche unterziehen oder sie gleich erschiessen”

Konservativer 2020: “In dem Film sind zwei Männer die Händchen halten! Der Film ist Woke! Hollywood will mir Ansichten aufzwingen! Die bösen Liberalen sind alle pervers, Sittenverfall! Die globale Finanzelite steckt dahinter brabbelJudenbrabbelEchsenmenschenbrabbelAusmerzenbrabbel”

Das ganze alte Gewäsch engstirniger Opas aus den 70ern kommt zurück, nur diesmal stimmen Andere mit ein, die gegen Transsexuelle oder Feministen oder Black Lives Matter oder soziale Gleichstellung oder freie Bildung indoktriniert wurden - ist ja schließlich alles “Woke.”

Ein Gegenpol zu den ganzen Rechten wäre wirklich schön, aber nach kurzer Recherche schaut das bedenklich wie das “BSW” aus - eine russlandhörige Linkspartei.

Like the FPÖ, the Communists are inherently Eurosceptic. For them, the EU is nothing but a devilish neoliberal project. One of their regional branches in Styria even called for an exit from the EU – a move not even the FPÖ dared to do.

Their position on Russia is also quite similar. Like the right-wing populists, the KPÖ seeks to end the Russia sanctions, […]

To add to what others have already answered, if Ukraine accepted such a “deal”, more war would be coming to Europe.

• When Russia still falsely assumed they could destroy Ukraine in just weeks, they were already prepared to march right through into Moldova (there’s ample reporting from mainstream and non-mainstream publications an internet search will reveal)
• Intense propaganda is currently aimed at Europe’s right wingers to seed distrust and destabilize Europe and to form positive opinions on Russia
• Hungary is controlled by a pro-Russian far-right dictator, Poland just barely teetered back from the brink
• Germany’s fascist party wants “Dexit,” (and “Brexit” was a Russian undertaking, too). Yes, pro-Russian far-right parties again, both. Same old.
• Russia is working with Republicans to pull the US out of NATO and destroy America from the inside out (surprise, another pro-Russian far-right party)
• A heavily Russian-influenced billionaire bought Twitter and allowed unchecked government propaganda from Russia under the guise of free speech to aid in the previous undertaking.

I have every reason to believe that Russia will just move on to the next target and that things would be far worse in Europe already if Ukraine wasn’t keeping a large portion of Russian resources aimed at them.

Also consider that any time Russia offered a ceasefire (such agreements were accepted several times), they always used it to safely rush supplies to the front lines and broke the ceasefire immediately after, often just hours after it was instated.

It’s like when YouTube influencers get invited, all expenses covered plus pocket money, to a sweatshop in China, given a guided tour showing all the utterly happy workers and absolutely fantastic work conditions.

And said influencers then return home and gush over said sweatshop, don’t disclose the paid expenses and perhaps even dunk on real journalists that infiltrated the company and collected evidence for months (the real case I’m referring to: https://www.npr.org/2023/06/30/1184974003/shein-influencers-china-factory-trip-backlash).

I’m happy when actual investigative journalists report from Russia, but those tend to live dangerously and won’t get interviews with the regime’s higher-ups or the tyrant himself. Media in Russia are under complete government control, so Tucker even getting that interview is a clear tell.

…and, hear me out, that will be perfect for keeping messages untraceable by the government. Every single of those 200,000 computers will have full copies of all the messages ever transmitted, unencrypted, but they’ll never be able to tell who wrote them and who they were for.

The problem I have with the “hypocrisy” argument is that, here, it’s used as a cheap attack on the messenger.

As in the old meme:

(poor peasant doing labor: “we should improve society somewhat”, grinning contemporary person: “yet you participate in society, curious! I am very intelligent.”)

I can accept it when influential people, even those that cause a whole lot of emissions themselves, advocate for climate programs. We won’t get anywhere if, whoever wants to talk about the environment, first has to become a cave dweller and give up their reach before they’re allowed to speak up.

On the other hand, when Fox News, a channel that generally panders to the coal lobby, car industry and oil barons, suddenly becomes concerned about someone’s CO2 emissions just to serve up another smear, that is hypocrisy, plain and simple.
