Dynamik einer Empörungswelle | Kaufmann, Opielka – “Der Schweizer Ringier-Journalist Fabian Eberhard wird von Zehntausenden von Nachrichten überrollt, nachdem er sich auf Twitter zum polnischen Unabhängigkeitsmarsch geäussert hat. Was ist da genau passiert? Steckt eine orchestrierte Kampagne dahinter? Und wieso sagt Eberhard nichts dazu?” (woz)

Das ist nicht Neoliberalismus, das ist Klassenkampf | Eribon, de Lagasnerie, Louis interviewt von Binswanger – “Die Linke muss sich gegen den Exzess der Ordnung wehren, gegen die Herrschafts­systeme, gegen die Unter­drückung, gegen die Verfolgung, gegen die strafrechtliche Oppression. Sie muss Unordnung stiften, Chaos, Widerstand.”
