Move to Schwyz, life is boring, people are mostly conservative but at least air pollution is low.

Was die Nagra lieber verschweigt, wenn es um das Atommüll-Tiefenlager geht
Im Zürcher Unterland, in Stadel, soll ein Atommüll-Tiefenlager entstehen. Die Nagra-Studie dazu wurde in den Medien zu wenig kritisch beachtet – bis jetzt.

💿 Platten, die die Welt bedeuten: Gerda - Believe in Gerda
Seit einer Woche ist „Believe in Gerda“ draußen und ich bin jetzt schon ziemlich besessen und höre die Platte nicht unter fünf Mal am Tag durch.
Es gibt schlichtweg keine auch nur annähernd mittelmäßigen Tracks auf „Believe in Gerda“. Stattdessen gibt es vom Produzententeam um The Krauts einen Banger nach dem anderen.
Auf jedem der Tracks werden andere Rapper:innen gefeatured, eigentlich eine aktuelle Deutschrap-All Star-Sammlung mit einem äußerst stringenten Soundkonzept. Von OG Keemo, Liz und Apsilon über Wa22ermann, Kryptik Joe und Audio 88&Yassin bis Kwam.E, Nepumuk und Sazou versammelt „Believe in Gerda“ stilsicher viele der aktuell der spannendsten Acts im Deutschrap.
Die Gäste rappen über Boom Rap-inspirierte, äußerst geschmackssichere Beats, die nach Liveband klingen und überwiegend eher dunkle Klangfarben kreieren.
Die Beats schmiegen sich dabei trotz aller Ecken und Kanten an die Featurepartner:innen an und setzen trotzdem immer wieder Antipunkte oder legen überraschende Volten hin
Und damit ist auch das Kunststück der Platte unterstrichen: Die extrem unterschiedlichen Flows und Themen der Featuregäste führen zum Gegenteil von Beliebigkeit-
Believe in Gerda ist eine Platte, die man wie aus einem Guss weghören kann ohne auch nur einmal skippen zu müssen. Und deswegen habe ich hier starke Rap-Platte des Jahres Vibes.

Unrest has broken out in the regions of Kurdistan that are occupied by the Turkish government. People are protesting the decision of the ruling AKP party, the party of president Recep Tayyip Erdoğan, to give the post of mayor of the city of Wan to its own candidate, despite the fact that the AKP candidate lost the election. This decision, and the widespread violence with which it has been imposed, illustrates how Turkish democracy is a form of autocracy.

Wird die AfD von Russland bezahlt? Rechtes Schweigen über Ton-Aufnahmen über Bystron
Ton-Aufnahmen der tschechischen Regierung sollen belegen, dass die AfD und ihr Spitzenpolitiker Petr Bystron von Russland geschmiert wurden. Die AfD-Fans, die sonst überall eine Verschwörung wittern, wo keine sind, sind bei diesem Thema erstaunlich ruhig.

On this day, 1 April 1939, the Spanish civil war ended, with victory for general Franco and his Nationalist forces. Workers, largely organised in the anarchist CNT and socialist UGT unions, had launched a social revolution in 1936 and beaten back the right-wing military takeover. But after nearly 3 years of intense fighting, the anti-fascist forces were eventually overcome by brute force. While the "democratic allies" of the Republic like the UK blockaded Spain, military aid for the Nationalists from Nazi Germany and fascist Italy poured in. After hundreds of thousands of deaths, many of the remaining anti-fascists had to flee the country to avoid the punitive mass executions which killed tens of thousands. Spanish refugees were interned in concentration camps in France, which then came under Nazi control during German occupation. But large numbers of civil war veterans joined resistance movements, and help liberate France.

On this day, 1 April 1982, oil company Exxon produced a private, internal report on carbon dioxide (CO2) and the greenhouse effect. A summary of the report circulated to senior management stated that carbon dioxide in the atmosphere was concentrated at 340 ppm, and that burning fossil fuels and clearing forests was causing this figure to increase. It does state that there was "currently no unambiguous scientific evidence that the Earth is warming" but goes on to state that global warming could be detected by 1995. It warns that this warming might be irreversible, and says that mitigating against negative effects of global warming would require a reduction in fossil fuel combustion. Exxon scientists projected that surface temperatures would warm 3-6°C above preindustrial levels by the year 2100. The report proves that as early as the 1970s Exxon, like many fossil fuel companies, knew that their products were going to cause devastating climate change to the planet, even though it was not yet detectable. However, Exxon took no corrective action, and instead funnelled $31 million to fund misinformation campaigns to try to manufacture doubt about climate change.

On this day, 3 April 1978, Black anarchist prison organiser and former Panther, Lorenzo Kom'boa Ervin, and three other Black incarcerated people were placed in the behaviour modification control unit at the Marion Illinois federal penitentiary after a protest over conditions.In March, prisoners organised a food boycott, and later people confined to the isolation unit protested, complaining that glass was in their food. The protesters were brutally beaten by guards.Prison activist newsletter Anarchist Black Dragon reported that "on [Kom'boa's] second day in the unit, prison officials tried to set him up by letting two white prisoners out of their cells while he was taking his recreation period and tried to incite them to attack him, in the hope that they would either kill or badly injure him. But the two prisoners refused to swallow the racist bait and do the officials' dirty work. As a result they were called 'N-word-lovers' and threatened with beatings. In the control unit there are constant attempts to pit one race against the other by the guards."Kom'boa (pictured) was eventually released from prison and remains active today, residing in Memphis, Tennessee.More information, sources and map: https://stories.workingclasshistory.com/article/10155/illinois-prison-protestTo access this hyperlink, click our link bio then click this photo

“Perhaps we haven’t sufficiently demonstrated that colonialism is not satisfied merely with holding a people in its grip and emptying the native’s brain of all form and content.
By a kind of perverted logic, it turns to the past of the oppressed people, and distorts, disfigures, and destroys it. This work of devaluing pre-colonial history takes on a dialectical significance today.”
— Frantz Fanon, The Wretched of the Earth
