The article mentions how Václav Havel, even after his death, awarded a prize to himself in honor of his 90th birthday, which raises questions about the absurdity of the current world and reflects on his drama, while the president of the republic accepted it at a time when he was on vacation, highlighting the paradox of the current political situation. #VáclavHavel #ČeskáPolitika #Divadlo (translated)

Wolfgang Kubicki wrote that the day provides an opportunity to think about how societal division can be prevented. He regarded polarization and accusations of fascism against the CDU as dangerous. In his assessment, a constitutional crisis in Saxony-Anhalt, should the factions block each other on candidates, would not have been a good alternative. Everyone is called upon to deal with the election results maturely. This also applies to the AfD and the new parliamentary president, who has announced an impartial conduct of office, Kubicki wrote. This already arises from constitutional law and practice; the president will be judged accordingly, if necessary, in court. Kubicki accused the SPD of slipping into reflexes from the 2025 federal election campaign. In the end, this only benefits the political fringes, as it did before. #Gesellschaft #Politik #Wahlen (translated)

Felipe Leme stated that B3 had a historic day, with an increase of more than 7% in the Bovespa index and a drop of more than 20 cents in the dollar. He attributed the movement to the hope that Flávio could defeat Lula in the second round and interpreted the optimism as a sign of investor support for economic freedom. Leme argued that Flávio should present proposals for tax cuts and public spending reductions, citing the style of Javier Milei, who, according to him, yelled "AFUERA!" when announcing cuts in ministries. Among the measures he suggested were to end split payment and the fee on blouses, reduce ministries, and reconsider the oversight of the Income Tax. The author added that many Brazilians would be suffocated by taxes and that some of them had not even voted but could mobilize in the face of the prospect of paying less. He urged Flávio to quickly present a cuts plan and accelerate the campaign. #B3 #Bovespa #Eleições2024 (translated)

Kolja Barghoorn wrote that demonstrators recognized him that day in the cathedral square in Magdeburg and repeatedly called him a "Nazi." Hearing the shouts up close had a different effect than reading them on the internet. Barghoorn interpreted such labels as a sign of a lack of historical understanding and a moral abyss. He referred to a visit to Sachsenhausen during his school years and to his visit this year to the House of the Wannsee Conference. There, he saw the organizational chart of the Nazis and traced how systematically they had planned the persecution and murder of millions of people. Regarding Nazi comparisons made by politicians such as Eva von Angern, Susan Sziborra-Seidlitz, and Ricarda Lang, Barghoorn questioned their historical awareness. Those who emphasize the historical uniqueness of the Holocaust must ask themselves whether the constant use of the term "Nazi" as a political insult is appropriate. Such shouts do not strengthen the awareness of the Nazi era but rather turn its crimes into a political everyday weapon and contribute to their trivialization, he wrote. #Nazis #Politik #Geschichte (translated)

Poponze wrote that Juliette stated that, with the second round of the 2026 elections approaching, it was not the time to attack anyone.
