Nadja Natalie Isaksen criticized the media's coverage of 112-year-old Kirsten Schwalbe and her deceased husband being listed in the Bovrup registry with DNSAP's membership details. Isaksen wrote that Schwalbe had set the record for the oldest Dane ever just the Wednesday before, and that she had shared anecdotes from her life through TV MIDTVEST. Isaksen emphasized that Nazism was a terrible ideology, but did not believe that justified the media confronting a 112-year-old with matters from 85 years earlier. She wrote that several media outlets had contacted Schwalbe, and that a journalist from TV MIDTVEST had mentioned that the encounter with the issue had left her in a vulnerable state. According to Isaksen, the Bovrup registry contained information about individuals who had been deceased for at least ten years. She therefore believed it should be investigated how Schwalbe's name had become publicly available and pointed out that political affiliation was a particularly sensitive piece of personal information. Isaksen wrote that Schwalbe had subsequently told TV MIDTVEST that she felt bad about having been a member of the party, did not sympathize with the Nazis, and regretted not having investigated what she was signing. According to Isaksen, Schwalbe had explained that the signature was needed to allow the couple to buy a house, and that she had let the men handle such matters back then. Isaksen praised TV MIDTVEST for taking good care of Schwalbe and for giving her the opportunity to tell her version. She wrote that she hoped the media coverage had not caused Schwalbe to withdraw from the public eye and encouraged people to instead cherish her stories. #KirstenSchwalbe #Danmark #Mediekritik (translated)

Un policier vient de me cibler intentionnellement avec un tir de LBD à la jambe. Je me trouve à seulement quelques mètres de lui. Je suis clairement identifié comme journaliste, avec un casque sur lequel le mot « PRESSE » est inscrit partout, et je porte également une caméra. @snjcgt.fr

Monique X-Influencer 🇳🇱 ✌️ wrote that leftist feminists, humanists, intellectuals, politicians, columnists, authors, artists, and journalists, according to her, were silent about what she called the genocide in Nigeria. She stated that Muslims were the perpetrators there and black Christians and atheists were the victims. According to her, there was no attention given to the issue because no Jews could be blamed for it, and black people were only of interest to the left if they could be used for a photo. She accused the left of hypocrisy. #Feminisme #Mensrechten #Politiek (translated)
