Ich lese gerade die irrste #Diplomarbeit meines Lebens. Immer, wenn man glaubt, eine Steigerung sei nicht mehr möglich...
Alleine schon der Titel ist from outer space: "Planetare Radikale Demokratie. Über die Rolle nicht-menschlicher Akteur*innen im politischen Diskurs"
Verfasst von einer bekannten #ORF-#Klimajournalistin. In der Diplomarbeit wird unter anderem auch gefordert, dass #Wale mehr in die #Demokratie mit einbezogen werden müssen, was ich wirklich süß fand.
Ich will nicht spotten. Ich sage nur: Es gibt im Moment an den Universitäten kein Gegengewicht zu diesem stramm linken Denken.
Witkoff cancelled the Paris meeting with the EU.
Washington has rejected the EU's proposed amendments to the peace plan and sees no point in discussing them.
Live with it, Merz. You are nobody.
The European Commission offered 𝕏 an illegal secret deal: if we quietly censored speech without telling anyone, they would not fine us.
The other platforms accepted that deal.
𝕏 did not.
🇩🇪🇪🇺 GERMANY’S OFFSHORE WIND POWER DREAM JUST HIT THE WALL - AND NO ONE WANTS TO SAY WHY
Germany just suffered the kind of humiliation that would have been unthinkable a decade ago:
A 10-gigawatt offshore wind auction - the biggest in Europe - and not a single company showed up.
Zero bids. Zero interest. Zero illusion left about Berlin’s green-industrial grand plan.
The Bundestag’s response? Not to fix the system - but to shrink it.
Germany has now slashed its 2026 offshore wind auction from 6 GW down to a measly 2.5–5 GW.
Far from a “strategic adjustment,” thi is an admission of failure.
The offshore wind industry did the math that Berlin refused to do.
Developers took one look at the deal and realized:
- Zero-subsidy projects no longer work in a world of skyrocketing steel prices
- Supply chains are a mess
- Turbines have doubled in cost
- Interest rates make capital-intensive megaprojects impossible
And Germany still thinks companies will magically absorb all risk while politicians take all the moral credit
Offshore wind companies are businesses, not activists.
And right now, offshore wind is a bad business in Germany.
The truth behind the flop:
Germany wants 70 GW of offshore wind by 2045.
Reality check: Current additions are nowhere near that trajectory - and they’re slowing.
Industry groups warned Berlin months before the failed auction that the system was collapsing.
Permitting is too slow, tenders are structurally unprofitable, revenue certainty doesn’t exist, supply chains can’t keep up, and costs have exploded across the board.
Berlin ignored them.
And now Germany is shocked - shocked! - that no one wants to lose billions on their utopian timeline.
Germany was supposed to be the green engine of Europe.
Instead, it has become the case study in what happens when ideology outruns physics, economics, and industrial capacity.
Shutting off cheap Russian gas created an energy cost explosion.
Nuclear was retired early. Coal briefly returned. Industry left.
And now even wind - the supposed savior - is buckling.
At some point, you run out of slogans and start running into reality.
The green future isn’t canceled... but Germany just learned (hopefully) it won’t arrive on political virtue alone.

🚨 Germany begged for its own 1,750t of gold back from the US.
Got 300t after years of waiting.
Now “requesting” the remaining 1,350t.
If it was really theirs, why do they have to ASK?
Because it’s been leased 10× over.
The system is naked.
🇩🇪🇦🇫 AFGHAN STABS GERMAN TEACHER SIX TIMES - COURT DROPS ATTEMPTED MURDER CHARGE BECAUSE "HE WALKED AWAY"
A 29-year-old Afghan migrant brutally stabbed a 27-year-old German teacher in broad daylight, in a random attack that left her permanently traumatized and afraid to walk alone. He plunged a 10cm knife into her back four times and slashed her leg twice, then fled the scene.
And yet, the German court refused to convict him of attempted murder.
Why? Because he stopped. Because he ran.
Because under a twisted legal doctrine, that counts as a “voluntary withdrawal” from the crime, even though he left her bleeding in the street, offering no help, no remorse, and no explanation.
The verdict: 6 years in prison, and the charge of attempted murder quietly dropped.
The attacker was later found thanks to DNA, caught only after robbing a bank. He had no education, no job, and was living off the German welfare system.
This case is not an exception.
A justice system that protects ideology over victims. A migration policy that turns a blind eye to violence.
And a society that’s told to stay silent, even when its daughters are bleeding in the street.
This is how civilizations fall. Not all at once, but one courtroom at a time.
