A propos verder niks: Er is eigenlijk geen goede diepe reden waarom anderen jouw troep zouden moeten opruimen. Individualisme wordt ten onrechte gelijkgesteld aan egoïsme. Individualisme is verantwoordelijkheid nemen voor je eigen vrijheid.

@UnrollHelper please unroll

Zonder dat we het er expliciet over hebben gaat veel maatschappelijk debat eigenlijk vaak over de vraag: "wie 'is' wij?" Wie erkennen we wederzijds als gelijkwaardig lid van de politieke gemeenschap die een democratie in wezen is? Een draadje.

This video is exactly why foreign media are banned from entering Gaza. Two minutes of utter devastation.

Niet dat ik perse gelijk heb gekregen maar misschien wel een beetje...

Ongebreideld kapitalisme achter een scherm van populisme. Ook in Nederland: Terwijl de Tweede Kamer debatteerde over asielnoodwetgeving werd 2 miljard cadeau gedaan aan aandeelhouders... x.com/SybrandFrietem…

Ik moest hier ook nog even aan denken gisteren..

Ik begrijp dit wel.

@MERuijtenberg Formeel niet inderdaad. Maar een de facto machtsvacuüm in de machtigste lidstaat op de dag dat de EU geo-politiek alleen komt te staan is best een tegenvaller.

@MERuijtenberg Val van de regering in Duitsland?

Dit was een akelig accurate voorspelling van de tijd die nu achter ons ligt. We hebben het zien gebeuren in slow motion...

Seems like this major announcement was timed long in advance to be the day after the election. We’ve been saying from jump this Israeli genocide had nothing to with hostages or Hamas. Now they are.

Dit is van groot belang denk ik.

Europe needs to get really fucking real about supporting Ukraine

@justinbaragona Q

It is an absolute certainty that Trump will immediately boast about the economy when he gets in office -- taking credit for low unemployment, shrinking inflation, and a surging stock market that he had nothing to do with.

Haar naam betekent in het Perzisch “Hert van de Zee”. Zeg haar naam! #AhooDaryaei #WomanLifeFreedom

Rich Europe cannot blame America over Ukraine. It is our European fault that we have not used the two-yesr window provided by brave Ukrainians to massively build wepons production factories to supply Ukrainian defenders and ourselves. We have the money for it, but not will.

Update: The authorities in Iran are now claiming that a young woman, who courageously removed her clothes in protest against harassment by the morality, police at her university, suffers from psychological illness and has been admitted to a mental health hospital. This accusation of mental instability is a familiar tactic by the Islamic Republic. In 2014, when I launched the My Stealthy Freedom campaign against compulsory hijab, the regime used similar lies against me, claiming I had a mental breakdown, undressed myself on the London subway and was raped by three men. This is how they attempt to undermine those who resist their oppression. One student who witnessed the entire incident says: “On Saturday, November 2, we saw the university’s security and Basij forces trying to forcibly drag a female student into the security room, under the pretext of her not wearing a proper hijab. She resisted, and in the struggle, her hoodie was pulled off, leaving her with only her undergarments underneath. Shocked, the security officers let her go, after which, in a moment of rage, she removed her pants and threw them at the officers.” This eyewitness account directly contradicts the regime’s narrative and shows the extent of brutality Iranian women face for the most basic acts of defiance. This woman has been forcibly hospitalized under psychiatric supervision—marking the start of torture and, soon after, the cycle of forced confessions. I believe her life is now in serious danger. I urge international media, human rights organizations, and the international community to support her before is too late. Let’s be her voice.

@JamesLucasIT Without a doubt, Aya Sophia in Istanbul. Such a marvel of technology, so much history, so many succesive cultures all in one place.

What is the most breathtaking building you've ever set foot in?
