@KonstantinKisin spoke wonderfully. Incidentally, there is much on what I agree with him not only in way of common sense or simple logics, but personally. He came from the carcass of the USSR, I came from the carcass of Yugoslavia. Failed statest both 🧵
"The tide is turning. Once again we can dream that our children can be judged on the content of their character and not the colour of the square they post on Instagram."
My keynote speech at @arc_forum is now available. As usual, I didn't hold back.

I moderna ideologija klimatskog alarmizma dobrim je dijelom nastavak njegovog utjecaja. Ukratko - Thomas Malthus je bio svećenik koji je posadio prvo sjeme uvjerenja da je čovjek štetočina i smetnja na ovom planetu.

Outrageous: today Springer Nature (@SpringerNature) sent me an invite to be a guest editor for a new journal (Discover Psychology)... So far, so good. As the guest editor I would need to carry out all the editorial work for a new volume of the journal. So far, so good. I asked about the compensation for the work, and... Well... You know... It's an unpaid work. I would gain "recognition from my field".
Guess what?
In 2025, Springer Nature reported a total revenue of €1.926 billion, representing an underlying growth of 6.2%. The company's adjusted operating profit (AOP) reached €543.6 million. This strong financial performance was primarily driven by their Research division and continued growth in full open access.
Now, again, they keep trying to profit off our free labor.
This must stop.
An meine internationalen Kollegen: Dieser Vorfall repräsentiert nicht die Mehrheit der serbischen Bevölkerung. Es tut mir leid, dass Sie Zeuge einer solchen Gräueltat werden mussten. https://t.co/cqFB5HQBmw
Elon could literally solve homelessness tomorrow.
All he needs to do is sell his stake in the companies he created from the ground up, crashing the price and evaporating his wealth as well as the savings and pensions of workers globally.. handing the control of these companies over to short term profit interests and preventing any long term vision from being enacted..
THEN take whatever money that remains which will be nowhere near 1tn and give it to homeless charities who have never solved homelessness anywhere on earth because they’re financially incentivised to do the opposite.
Bam - homelessness solved.
The reason he doesn’t do any of this is because he’s evil.
Peer-reviewed literature review on degrowth:
◼️Almost 90% of “studies” are opinions rather than analysis.
◼️Few of them use quantitative or qualitative data; even fewer use formal modelling.
◼️Most of them offer subjective policy advice without policy evaluation.
◼️Most “studies” focus on small, local cases without a clear implication for the whole economy.

Protect competition. Protect connectivity. Protect consumer choice.
We call upon the Serbian authorities to reverse measures designed to UNLAWFULLY force Wizz Air out of Belgrade and to uphold their international obligations.
14 million passengers have travelled with Wizz Air to and from Serbia since 2010.
The future of affordable air travel in Serbia should be decided by passengers - not by government intervention designed to shield state-backed carriers from competition.
Let's fight together. Let's WIZZ.
NEW: a report from Vanderbilt and WashU just dropped, taking on the "state of scholarship in the humanities and social sciences," a big topic among critics of higher ed.

🚨HAPPENING NOW: Justice Department announces indictment against Southern Poverty Law Center ("SPLC"). Our indictment alleges SPLC secretly funneled MORE THAN $3 MILLION in funds to members of white supremacist and extremist groups.
If Péter Magyar had won against a centrist candidate, the headlines this morning would be about another European country falling to a right-wing populist. What happened in Hungary is the same that happened in Germany in 1998 and 2021. After the leader had been in power for 16 years, voters wanted a fresh face, but not a fundamentally different policy.
