They Droned Back
Seven students, five weeks, publicly available ship tracking tools, and a willingness to drive 2,500 kilometers on a hunch. They produced a more coherent picture of Germany’s and Netherlands drone mystery than months of official hand-wringing and coordinated stonewalling.
Nice try.

Shit’s Gonna Get So Fucking Weird and Terrible.
Bots don’t pay taxes. This is the fatal layer of the hollowing. As wages disappear, so does taxable income. As taxable income disappears, so does the budget for public goods. Roads. Schools. Healthcare. Infrastructure. Regions already stretched thin will buckle. Places that rely on the middle class to keep shops open, clinics staffed, services running—those are the first to fall.

Use this magic bullet to shoot yourself in the foot.
In the classic formulation of the hero’s journey, step one is the call to adventure, and step two is the refusal of that call. I think we’re all stuck at step two. Gandalf’s at our door, but we literally just sat down to lunch, and have you seen the forces of Mordor? They’ve got trolls.

Anti-Woke-Wahnsinn in den Medien: Steile Thesen, kaum Belege.
(…) fast immer zerfallen die steilen Thesen, wenn man nach Belegen sucht, die über einen extremen Einzelfall hinausgehen. Im Fall der angeblichen Verantwortung der „Woken“ für den Rechtsruck ist das besonders fatal. Denn Parteien wie die AfD werden nicht gewählt, weil das Wahlvolk von antirassistischen Aktivisten oder kämpferischen Klimaschützern genervt ist – sie werden gewählt, weil ihre Positionen von ihren Wähler*innen geteilt werden.
