Die scheinbare Trumpeligkeit des #Kulturstaatsministers #Weimer soll vermutlich gezielt Kulturschaffende abschrecken, sich zu kritischen Fragen zu äussern.
Die #Reichskulturkammer von 1933 hat angerufen und möchte ihren #Faschismus zurück.
Happy to share my analysis of Green Alliance v Bulgaria, which addresses the limits of spying on civil society under Article 8 of the #ECHR, for the Strasbourg Observers. #RuleOfLaw #ChillingEffect

On a side note, it's criminal how far you have to go on Google looking up "Just a Gigolo" before the Tony Slattery sitcom turns up. #ChillingEffect en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Just_a_...

Nur damit das klar ist: Es geht hier ( #ESTA & #VisaWaiver) *nicht* um Verhinderung illegaler Migration. Es geht um den #ChillingEffect: Du musst vielleicht beruflich in die #USA? Dann pass auf, was du schreibst, wir lesen alles mit, wir kontrollieren das, schade dir nicht selbst!👮♂️ #ICE
#ChillingEffect Professor:innen fliegen in d #USA aus ihren Jobs, weil Studierende sie denunzieren, Sätze in Vorlesungen filmen, zu den mit Trump Loyalisten besetzten Gremien gehen u sich (erfolgreich) beschweren. Vielleicht weil ihnen eine Note nicht passte. Aus Angst zensieren sich Profs selbst. ⬇️

![A Reagan-appointed judge is accusing top Trump officials of using immigration power as a speech-chilling cudgel, and he’s preparing a tailored remedy aimed at stopping “retribution” against academics.
“ [T]he cabinet secretaries … are not honoring the First Amendment.”
“ [W]hat happened here is an unconstitutional conspiracy … to chill … First Amendment … rights.”
“ [I]t’s fairly clear that this president believes, as an authoritarian … everyone … is going to toe the line absolutely.”
William G. Young, U.S. District Judge (Boston hearing on remedies, 15-Jan-2026; as reported by Reuters and The Washington Post)

Although supposedly not, I think I’m #shadowbanned at #ThePlatformKnownPreviouslyAsTwitter, or what I call #AlgorithmicApartheid. That includes #deboosting of #tweets, and #tweaking the #algorithm to create #apartheid, a #segregation of persons or #genres that has a #chillingeffect on #freespeech.

6/11 Jensen expressed concern about the legislation's broader impact:
"Students were remaining closeted. We know there's decades of evidence around how harmful that is for young people to pretend to be somebody that they're not."
Similar policies pursued in NB and Saskatchewan.
