@inthehands@hachyderm.ioRemarkable.
I visited Budapest not too long ago and ••loved•• the place. I had trouble while there parsing or even perceiving all the layers of Orbanism and cosmopolitanism and Hungarian-ness. I could tell that there were strong undercurrents invisible to me, both oppressive and liberatory. And I had a sense that yes, it was a city where a march like this was just beneath the surface everywhere, every day.
Watch a few seconds the video for a sense of scale.

A. Was the Armenian genocide not a genocide because no court declared it to be so? No court established the Guatemalan genocide or that of Sabra and Chatila [Lebanon].

@ErikJonker@mastodon.socialTrumps handelsbeleid ondermijnt de Amerikaanse democratie. Wie louter oog heeft voor de economische gevolgen laat zich afleiden, leerde Marike Stellinga.
"Trump heeft zich de macht toegeëigend om van het ene op het andere moment winnaars en verliezers in de Amerikaanse economie aan te wijzen. Dat zijn ondernemers die met pijn en moeite een bedrijf hebben opgebouwd en de levensvatbaarheid van hun werk met een gril van de president zien verschrompelen."

@ErikJonker@mastodon.socialGreat blog about EuroStack, we need to BUILD !
"We need to think about this first and foremost as an industrial project. With some public support but one where “industry” (the supply side) needs to be given the incentive to build, and the opportunity to scale and expand. We don’t need more “events” and pensive stuff about “our European values” and “democracy” around digital sovereignty. Industry should do its thing, or nothing will happen. Wake up."
