Waldemar Hartmann wrote that NRW Minister Nathanael Liminski recommends that The Left politically cleanse its own ranks. He noted that Liminski is speaking to taz, but not to NIUS. Hartmann asked whether The Left wants to present itself as a potential coalition partner of the Union, and disparagingly labeled the party with a historical accusation. In Schleswig-Holstein, in his view, Liminski's recommendation was received with satisfaction: Prien and Günther celebrated the successes of their "full swing to the left," he wrote. #Politik #NRW #DieLinke (translated)

Roman Kolář appreciated two contributions from the frontman of the band Rybičky 48, Kuba Ryba, and wrote that they should also be published on the X network. According to him, it is important when public figures speak about social issues, even if it may cost them some fans. He cited Drábová, Svěrák, and Vetchý as examples. Kolář wrote that Ryba explains the topic to people publicly and compared him to Hejma, whom he stated spreads pro-Russian disinformation. According to Kolář, there has been a long-term failure in defending against hybrid warfare, especially disinformation, and the situation is worsening. He criticized EU politicians for not wanting to pressure social networks to delete fake accounts, verify user existence during registration, or limit the spread of disinformation. He dismissed objections that such measures would mean censorship or the creation of a "Ministry of Truth" as nonsense. He called for pressure on EU lawmakers and the European Commission to address the issue. He warned that otherwise, pro-Russian political forces could win in other countries. In Germany, he labeled the AfD as a pro-Russian Nazi party and Die Linke as a pro-Russian communist party; he also noted that they have opposite views on migration. In France, he identified both Le Pen and Mélenchon as pro-Russian. #dezinformace #hybridníválka #politik (translated)
