«Ogni volta in cui le donne vengono ammazzate la reazione unanime è sempre quella di un composto, sommesso, quasi imbarazzato: "poverina"». Quando leggiamo la notizia di un femminicidio stiamo in realtà leggendo un'altra storia: quella di chi quel gesto l'ha compiuto, quasi mai di chi l'ha subito.

2020 saw a spike in deaths in America, smaller than you might imagine during a pandemic, some of which could be attributed to COVID and to initial treatment strategies that were not effective. But then, in 2021, the stats people expected went off the rails.

Significantly, the majority of the deaths were not attributed to COVID.

In The Rhetoric of Outrage: Why Social Media Is Making Us Angry, Jeff Rice addresses the critical question of why anger has become the dominant digital response on social media. He examines the theoretical and rhetorical explanations for the intense rage that prevails across platforms and sheds new light on how our anger is not merely a reaction against singular events but generated out of aggregated beliefs and ideas.

Wenn jetzt nicht etwas Grundlegendes geschieht, dann war's das mit der Freiheit. Und nicht die Angriffe ihrer Gegner werden ihr den Garaus machen - die Gleichgültigkeit derer, die sie so lange genossen, wird es tun. Pandemien, Weltkrieg, Klimanotstand: Die Freiheit schwebt in höchster Gefahr. "Freiheitsgesäusel"? "Mehr Diktatur wagen"?

Warum stimmen sie ihrer eigenen Entrechtung zu und scheinen in ihre Ketten geradezu verliebt.
