CW: CW: political philosophy and uncomfortable reflections on modern society
These days, I am thinking a lot about this quote by Ulrike Meinhof (who herself had a, shall we say, interesting life):
“But that is who we are, that is where we come from. We are the offspring of metropolitan annihilation and destruction, of the war of all against all, of the conflict of each individual with every other individual, of a system governed by fear, of the compulsion to produce, of the profit of one to the detriment of others, of the division of people into men and women, young and old, sick and healthy, foreigners and Germans, and of the struggle for prestige. Where do we come from? From isolation in individual row-houses, from the suburban concrete cities, from prison cells, from the asylums and special units, from media brainwashing, from consumerism, from corporal punishment, from the ideology of nonviolence, from depression, from illness, from degradation, from humiliation, from the debasement of human beings, from all the people exploited by imperialism.”

Off to sleep. 🌙✨
Maybe I'll wake up in a world where hate has gone out of fashion, fascism is back in the dustbin, and late-stage capitalism has stopped chewing through the planet like a bored locust.
Better yet: may we all wake up there..

"Well it's got nothing to do with anything that is real
You just believe in it and it's true
You can sooth like an angel or sigh like a saint
You can dream it and see it through
You will live to see a sea of lights
Sparking on the face of a pearl
Climb your own peak
Find a new streakGet yourself along to the world party (party!)
Now you've been building for yourself a cool place in the sand
You're thinking that it's mighty fine
You've got dust in your eyeballs, you got mud in your mouth
But it's your head, it ain't mine
I've got a madman of my own to contend with
Cursing in the cave of my skull
Turn the other cheek
Find a new streakGet yourself along to the world party (party!)
Well I heard a rumour of a golden age
Somewhere back along the line
Maybe I dreamed it in a whisper or
Heard it in a spell
It was something to do with the sign of the times
And the only thing that I remember
Is a summer like a pretty girl
Who shimmers and shines
Moving in time
Shaking to the beat of the heart of the worldParty (party! party! party! party! party! party! party! party! party!) "

Öffentlicher Luxus und eine zukunftsgerichtete Politik würden nicht der Frage nachgehen, wie sich Bücher (Software, Filme, ...) vor dem Zugriff durch Menschen schützen lassen, sondern wie sichergestellt werden kann, dass wirklich alle Zugriff haben!
Wissen wird mehr, um so mehr es geteilt wird. Das ist die eine Form von Wachstum, die nicht im Konflikt mit ökologischen Grenzen steht – und ausgerechnet die bremst man aus.
Das ist sehr, sehr dumm!

Oltre la Piramide: cronache di una Tempesta e del Comune che nasce.
"Siamo immersi in una doppia tempesta: da un lato la ferocia di un capitalismo che agisce come un’arma di distruzione automatica, e dall’altro la risposta difensiva di una Madre Terra che reagisce all’aggressione alterando i propri cicli vitali."

Long time no see...
Vor zwei Wochen hatte ich einen Vortrag in Görlitz und durfte dort bei der AG Demokratie Ostsachsen über zwei meiner Forschungsprojekte sprechen. Nun habe ich mir gedacht ich baue aus der Präsentation und den Forschungsergebnissen mal einen kleinen Text für euch.
"Drei Jahrzehnte nach der Wiedervereinigung scheint Jugendarbeit in Ost und West längst gleichgestellt. Strukturen, Gesetze, Förderlogiken – alles da (zumindest noh). Doch wer genauer hinsieht, erkennt:
Die Unterschiede liegen nicht in der Ausstattung, sondern im Ursprung. Und vielleicht auch in der Haltung, mit der wir heute Soziale Arbeit und Jugendarbeit denken."#Jugendarbeit #SozialeArbeit #Transformation #DDR #Ostdeutschland #Jugendhilfe #saveyourhinterland #AnotherWorldIsPossible #GesellschaftImWandel #Selbstorganisation #Emanzipation #Burdukat

What Can We Learn From the Birth of the #NuclearEra?
By Eric Ross, #CommonDreams
August 3, 2025"In recent months, nuclear weapons have reemerged in global headlines. Nuclear-armed rivals #India and #Pakistan approached the brink of a full-scale war, a confrontation that could have become an extinction-level event, with the potential to claim up to 2 billion lives worldwide.
"The instability of a global order structured on nuclear apartheid has also come into sharp relief in the context of the recent attacks on #Iran by #Israel and the #UnitedStates. That system has entrenched a dangerous double standard, creating perverse incentives for the #proliferation of world-destroying weaponry, already possessed by nine countries. Many of those nations use their arsenals to exercise imperial impunity, while non-nuclear states increasingly feel compelled to pursue nuclear weapons in the name of national security and survival.
"Meanwhile, the largest nuclear powers show not the slightest signs of responsibility or restraint. The United States, #Russia, and #China are investing heavily in the 'modernization' and expansion of their arsenals, fueling a renewed arms race. And that escalation comes amid growing global instability contributing to a Manichean world of antagonistic armed blocs, reminiscent of the #ColdWar at its worst.
"The nuclear threat endangers not only global peace and security but the very continuity of the human species, not to speak of the simple survival of life on Earth. How, you might wonder, could we ever have arrived at such a precarious situation?
"The current crisis coincides with the 80th anniversary of the #TrinityTest, the first detonation of an atomic weapon that would soon obliterate the Japanese cities of #Hiroshima and #Nagasaki and so inaugurate the #AtomicAge. So many years later, it’s worth critically reassessing the decisions that conferred on humanity such a power of self-annihilation. After all, we continue to live with the fallout of the choices made (and not made), including those of the scientists who created the bomb. That history also serves as a reminder that alternative paths were available then and that another world remains possible today."

August 3, 2025"In recent months, nuclear weapons have reemerged in global headlines. Nuclear-armed rivals #India and #Pakistan approached the brink of a full-scale war, a confrontation that could have become an extinction-level event, with the potential to claim up to 2 billion lives worldwide.
"The instability of a global order structured on nuclear apartheid has also come into sharp relief in the context of the recent attacks on #Iran by #Israel and the #UnitedStates. That system has entrenched a dangerous double standard, creating perverse incentives for the #proliferation of world-destroying weaponry, already possessed by nine countries. Many of those nations use their arsenals to exercise imperial impunity, while non-nuclear states increasingly feel compelled to pursue nuclear weapons in the name of national security and survival.
"Meanwhile, the largest nuclear powers show not the slightest signs of responsibility or restraint. The United States, #Russia, and #China are investing heavily in the 'modernization' and expansion of their arsenals, fueling a renewed arms race. And that escalation comes amid growing global instability contributing to a Manichean world of antagonistic armed blocs, reminiscent of the #ColdWar at its worst.
"The nuclear threat endangers not only global peace and security but the very continuity of the human species, not to speak of the simple survival of life on Earth. How, you might wonder, could we ever have arrived at such a precarious situation?
"The current crisis coincides with the 80th anniversary of the #TrinityTest, the first detonation of an atomic weapon that would soon obliterate the Japanese cities of #Hiroshima and #Nagasaki and so inaugurate the #AtomicAge. So many years later, it’s worth critically reassessing the decisions that conferred on humanity such a power of self-annihilation. After all, we continue to live with the fallout of the choices made (and not made), including those of the scientists who created the bomb. That history also serves as a reminder that alternative paths were available then and that another world remains possible today."

What Can We Learn From the Birth of the #NuclearEra?
