Dr. Rainer Zitelmann wrote that people are systematically deceived and allow it to happen. Citing a report from "Zeit," he stated that some asylum seekers from Turkey buy real criminal cases in their home country to prove political persecution in Germany. According to him, bribed prosecutors initiate investigations, which are then recorded in the Turkish justice database Uyap. According to the report, the offers are communicated via TikTok and Telegram; complete packages, including smuggling to Germany, start at 6,000 euros. https://t.co/0v3wBvC7mt #Asylpolitik #Korruption #Deutschland (translated)
Now they have made a diesel deal with (US President Donald) Trump... Through the conversations we conducted, we will bring a part of this diesel to Turkey. The deal between the USA and Russia is important for Turkey's energy security, Bayraktar said to the Turkish television channel Kanal 7. #Türkei #Energie #Diesel (translated)
Yanis Varoufakis, never short of an original statement, reports a hopeful mood even among the last remaining Marxists in China: capitalism will not survive AI, as the abundance of goods it creates will cause their exchange value to plummet — a prediction that, by the way, is very similar to the expectation recently expressed by Elon Musk to the "Economist"; perhaps the American billionaire will soon also be counted among the Chinese Marxists. #KünstlicheIntelligenz #China #TechnologieRisiken (translated)

Enemies of savings books wrote that the SPD, Left Party, and Greens have started coalition talks in Berlin. The Greens have already announced an agreement on a packaging tax. Similar to Potsdam, a tax of 50 cents per package could soon apply, he wrote. For four ordered pizzas, this would mean an additional two euros in tax for a family. He described the levy as "madness" and said it primarily affects people with low incomes. Berliners seemed to approve of the tax, he suggested, as they would have voted differently otherwise. #Koalitionsgespräche #Verpackungssteuer #BerlinerWahlen (translated)

Apollo News reported, citing a response from the government, that crime at German train stations remains high. The proportion of foreign suspects in violent crimes has therefore risen again and stood at 57 percent. https://t.co/H9we80W9kG #Kriminalität #Deutschland #Bahnhöfe (translated)
Peter Borbe accused left-wing forces of wanting to eliminate politically unwanted individuals. When this happens economically, Cancel Culture often comes into play, he wrote, referring to a planned appearance by comedian Nikolai Binner at the Saalbau Volkshaus Enkheim in Frankfurt. Unlike many other comedians, Binner is not far-left and also makes jokes that leftists consider politically incorrect, wrote Borbe. The SPD and the Left have therefore put him on an enemies list and are attempting to prevent the appearance, he claimed. At the same time, Borbe accused left-wing parties of accusing the AfD of planning a political cleansing of the cultural landscape in the event of seizing government power, even though they themselves have been doing this for years. https://t.co/5AyvmLtVhV #CancelCulture #FreiheitDerKunst #StandUpComedy (translated)
"He will not tolerate the 'unfair assertions' of individuals, Merz said accordingly." That Merz is presenting himself as the guardian of an appropriate political tone is not without a certain irony, I would say. Or does he perhaps also mean himself in the end? (translated)
"The Left Party did not stick to the agreement. And that is regrettable," said the co-chair of the Greens in the ARD show "Maischberger." "Of course, one needs reliability and trust," she said accordingly. "We hope that the Left Party will return to the table," Brantner continued. #Regierungsbildung #Berlin #Grüne (translated)

The author wrote that an oil tanker from Saint Petersburg has been heading towards the US East Coast since September 22, 2026.

Snicklink predicted that jobs involving screen activities would become irrelevant within the next 18 months with about an 85 percent probability. Occupations with direct human contact, in his estimation, would still exist for a few more years with the same probability; he made a sexual joke about this. For jobs in between, he expected varying developments, but often a loss or a strong reduction. Craft occupations would, in his estimation, last somewhat longer, but would mostly become irrelevant within seven to eight years at the latest – except for highly specialized manual tasks. The German auto industry would soon be "dead as a mouse"; he believes that studying and obtaining a driver's license are also a complete waste of time. Snicklink also wrote that existence would no longer depend on monetizable performance in the future – regardless of who governed the country. Whether this development is good or bad, he believes, remains to be seen. #Zukunft #Arbeitsplatz #Technologie (translated)
Michael wrote ironically that BMW is now also saving democracy and taking a stance. He opined that the company seems to be able to afford to alienate customers. Moreover, he claimed that the Quandt family, which he referred to as the main shareholders of BMW, had given significant sums of money to Hitler during the Nazi era and profited greatly from Nazi contracts. In conclusion, he speculated that Rausch might soon be driving a Tesla. #BMW #Demokratie #Geschichte (translated)
A sense of home wrote that the media would soon report, in his estimation, on a collapse in BMW sales and the reduction of thousands of jobs. He accompanied the post with the hashtag "Rausch." #Rausch #BMW #Wirtschaft #Arbeitsplatzverlust (translated)
Bernd Kaiser criticized BMW for canceling the leasing contract for the 7-series company car of the newly elected President of the State Parliament of Saxony-Anhalt, according to his representation. He accused the company of making a political statement while it is cutting 8,000 jobs worldwide and offering severance packages to almost 40,000 employees in Germany. Kaiser contrasted the decision with the BMW management's statements in the FAZ, claiming that certain parties are "poison for the economic location." He wrote that the company should focus more on technological innovations and sales, and he held the perceived misallocation of priorities partly responsible for the decline of the German location. #BMW #Dienstwagen https://t.co/JhQgq0WEGr #BMW #Autoindustrie #Wirtschaft (translated)
