Ich halte sogenannte #Thinktanks inzwischen für Institutionen, die interessengesteuert den sozialen Zusammenhalt untergraben und demokratische Strukturen schwächen, wenn diese ihren eigenen Interessen entgegenstehen.

Ideenagenturen für Politik und Öffentlichkeit Die wissenschaftliche Beschäftigung mit Ideenagenturen und Think Tanks ist eine spannende Angelegenheit. Nicht nur, weil die Beschäftigung mit Forschern und ihren Ideen für sich schon aufregend genug ...

The US is dragging Europe back to the days of white supremacism. Our leaders are playing along | Shada Islam People like me were targets of the Islamophobia that gripped the west after the US-led ‘war on terror’. Now I fear a chilling sequel is on the way, says Shada Islam, a Brussels-based commentator on EU affairs

A growing list of #academics, #scientists, #activists, #journalists, #thinktanks, #NGOs, etc. in the #climatechange space are busy trying to somehow add the patina of #solar #batteries to the absurd explosion of #datacenters ( #Alphabet #Amazon #Meta - 100s of billions of $ in 2026 alone).
