German assembly was a great success. Thanks to Frankfurt and great to meet so many nice people. Will try to spread the love and gain some momentum for the trinity of communications (I just made that up): mastodon, diem cafe and diem-connect. also, exepct some transparency and possibility to colaborate on policy papers. whooooooooooooooooooooo

“Women, I will let you in on a male secret. Men know that constantly self-proclaiming male 'feminists' are often predatory sleaze bags … they are viewed to be sex traitors.“—Julian Assange, DiEM25 Advisory Panel

“I am utterly a feminist in my disposition.”—Yanis Varoufakis, DiEM25 Coordinating Collective

These two statements are incompatible. DiEM members have a right to know where DiEM stands on this.

@Lea @Wessel_Dublin @Marjoline
Yes, a big thanks to Wessel for organising this and the next one on Tuesday. I encourage everyone to participate. Waiting for the real DiEM Cafe (please help @adamnewby on github.com/e3713/diemcafe, I cannot). The DiEM25 Cafe in Brussels last month was awesome, too much on the plate to talk but awesome. IRL or online, it is always too short. Maybe the cure is more often then 😉 . Glad to have met you Lea and Marjoline. And Wessel in Brussels and last night again.

@Marjoline Indeed we could have used some more minutes :-)

Thanks to @Wessel_Dublin this provisional DiEM Café - though small - worked & gave a good impression of how this tool could be used & how well, fast & productive group discussions could be conducted.

So @Marjoline from DiEM25 extracted the English bits from last year’s Tegenlicht program on Smart Cities. Thank you so much! :)

@jakobmo Concerning the inspiration coming from DiEM25 - I think that's a different issue & not one I'm absolutely confident in... What inspires me are the people in this world - including a lot of DiEM members - who do amazing work.
@jakobmo It's better than the one I posted for sure, but after these elections everyone of them seems much more creepy than before...
@Wessel_Dublin @pedrojuan Yes, indeed...
@pedrojuan Trial!

Watch an somewhat altered Christian Lindner, head of the German FDP - which seeks to become one of the three most powerful parties in the Bundestag this September & is campaigning with slogans like "Digital first, Bedenken (roughly: reflections) second".

I'm not quite sure if I like it but I couldn't resist posting it :-)
