“Auch die bewusste Verbreitung von falschen Tatsachen ist von der #Meinungsfreiheit gedeckt. Jeder Bürger hat das Recht zu lügen.
Wer nicht lügen darf, das sind die staatlichen Stellen. Sie sind gegenüber dem Bürger zur Wahrheit verpflichtet und nicht umgekehrt.
Ich verstehe das Vorhaben im #Koalitionsvertrag so, dass die #Landesmedienanstalten #Zensur- und #Wahrheitsämter werden sollen.
Staatliche Stellen, ob #Bundesregierung oder #Medienanstalten haben nicht das Recht den Bürgern vorzugeben, was Wahrheit und was Unwahrheit ist. Ganz im Gegenteil.
Wir haben gerade im Zusammenhang mit der #Migrationspolitik und den #Corona - #Maßnahmen wiederholt erlebt, dass Regierungsstellen uns die Unwahrheit sagten.
Die Einführung von #Zensur und die staatliche Anmaßung des #Rechts, dem #Bürger zu diktieren, was wahr und was unwahr ist, steht nicht im Einklang mit unserer freiheitlichen Verfassung.
Mehr noch: es entspringt autoritärem Denken und ist menschenrechtswidrig.
Und nun will man sogar so weit gehen, dass Bürger, die Regierungsstellen beim Lügen ertappen, nicht nur politisch ausgegrenzt und diffamiert werden, wie es bereits in der Vergangenheit geschehen ist, als sie als Verschwörungstheoretiker, Rechtspopulisten, Schwurbler usw. verunglimpft wurden.
Jetzt sollen sie offenkundig auch noch kriminalisiert werden. Und das ist ein Weg in eine totalitäre Gesellschaftsordnung, die mit aller Macht auf rechtsstaatlichem Wege bekämpft werden muss.”

Israeli soldiers ‘ordered’ to shoot unarmed Gaza aid seekers @palestine
aljazeera.com/news/2025/6/27/i…
Israel’s Haaretz newspaper reports that soldiers operating near food aid sites have deliberately fired on Palestinians.Al Jazeera
“The report was written by Israeli professor Yaakov Garb, who used data-driven analysis to show how the Israeli army’s siege of Gaza and indiscriminate attacks on civilians have led to a serious drop in its population.
[...]
This is not the first indication that the death toll could be significantly higher..
The Lancet released a study in January revealing that the death toll in Gaza was most likely undercounted by 41 percent in the first nine months of the war.”
“Internal communications obtained by Shomrim suggest that Safe Reach Solutions (SRS), the American company contracted to secure humanitarian aid delivery in Gaza, is also carrying out distinctly military-intelligence tasks. These include operating roadblocks, processing visual data from cameras, drones and satellites and using it to identify Hamas operatives and armed individuals.”
ynetnews.com/article/skpsmyxgg…
Safe Reach Solutions is also conducting intelligence operations using Israeli data, documents reveal; its partner Gaza Humanitarian Foundation faces questions over transparencyUri Blau and Milan Czerny/Shomrim (ynetnews)
“A former CIA officer who once headed American schemes to train contras in Nicaragua in the 1980s has been working with the Israelis to hatch a new aid organization, call it 'independent,' and proceed to deploy it on the starving Gaza population with the assistance of foreign entities and U.S. security contractors, according to new reports.”

Like many others have suggested, you may want to try Bitwig. I understand that it's the alternative DAW that is the most similar to Ableton. The company was started by a group of ex-Ableton employees, so it's not a coincidence. Many people online feel that it's in general a better DAW than Ableton, so you may end up liking it. It supports Linux natively, even provides an official flatpak (or Ubuntu installer?)
It's not as expensive as some make it out to be, and it's on sale right now for a few more days. I just yesterday bought Bitwig Studio Essentials. They have 3 editions and Studio Essentials is the starter version, currently $79 (reg. $99). The next level up is Studio Producer, currently $149 (reg. $199), and the top level is just Studio, currently $299 (reg. $399). They also offer rent to own for $16/month for 25 months on Splice.

Oh, I marched to the battle of New Orleans
At the end of the early British wars
The young land started growing
The young blood started flowing
But I ain't a-marching anymoreOh I killed my share of Injuns in a thousand different fights
I was there at the Little Big Horn
I heard many men a-lying
I saw many more a-dying
But I ain't a-marching anymoreIt's always the old to lead us to the wars
Always the young to fall
Now look at what we've won with a saber and a gun
Tell me is it worth it all?For I stole California from the Mexican land
Fought in the bloody Civil War
Yes, I even killed my brothers
And so many others
But I ain't a-marching anymoreFor I marched to the battle of the German trench
In a war that was bound to end all wars
Oh I must have killed a million men
And now they want me back again
But I ain't a-marching anymoreIt's always the old to lead us to the wars
Always the young to fall
Now look at what we've won with a saber and a gun
Tell me is it worth it all?For I flew the final mission in the Japanese sky
Set off the mighty mushroom roar
But I saw the cities burnin'
And I knew that I was learnin'
That I ain't a-marching anymoreNow the labor leader's screamin' when they closed the missile plant
United Fruit screams at the Cuban shore
Call it peace or call it treason
Call it love or call it reason
But I ain't a-marching anymore
I ain't a-marching anymore

"Il semble que nos dirigeants, ici dans l'Occident « libéral », aient trouvé un nouveau moyen de transformer une personne en non-personne.Voici un homme, Hüseyin #Doğru, journaliste allemand (d'origine turque, mais sans double nationalité) que les autorités européennes ont puni d'une manière inédite et extrêmement cruelle pour ses reportages et ses opinions sur la #Palestine.
Les autorités allemandes ont tiré les leçons de mon cas. Ne souhaitant pas avoir à répondre devant les tribunaux de toute interdiction des voix pro-palestiniennes (à l'instar du procès que je leur intente actuellement), elles ont trouvé un autre moyen : une sanction directe de l' #UE utilisant une directive jusqu'alors inutilisée, introduite au début de la guerre en #Ukraine, qui permet à Bruxelles de sanctionner tout citoyen de l'UE qu'elle estime travailler pour les intérêts russes. S'accrochant à l'argument selon lequel le site web/podcast de Hüseyin était également diffusé sur Ruptly (entre autres plateformes), elles utilisent cette directive visant les « actifs anti-russes » pour détruire un journaliste qui a osé s'opposer au génocide palestinien.
Concrètement, cela signifie que le compte bancaire de Hüseyin est gelé ; que si vous ou moi lui donnions de l'argent pour acheter des provisions ou payer son loyer, nous serions considérés comme ses complices et soumis à des sanctions similaires ; cela signifie également que s'il était fonctionnaire, il serait licencié ; s'il était étudiant, il serait expulsé de son université ; s'il percevait une pension, celle-ci serait suspendue ; s'il percevait des prestations sociales, celles-ci seraient gelées. Cela signifie également, de manière étonnante, qu'il ne peut pas quitter l'Allemagne !
Enfin, et ce n'est pas le moins important, cela signifie que Hüseyin ne peut pas poursuivre son gouvernement pour l'avoir transformé en non-personne, mais seulement contester la Commission européenne à Bruxelles – où il n'est même pas autorisé à se rendre !
Dois-je en dire plus ? N'est-il pas évident que nous vivons aujourd'hui dans une #Europe nominalement libérale où, en un clin d'œil, vos droits politiques et humains peuvent être révoqués, y compris votre droit de contester votre gouvernement devant un tribunal ?" -- Yanis #Varoufakis @yanisvaroufakis
