#kühn
#fuckSöder war in etwa so erwartbar staatsmännisch kondolierend, wie #Foodblogger und #Influencer es eben nicht sind. Und so war die letzte Ehre, die Söder dem verstorbenen #Papst erwies, eine feixende selbstzentrierte Selfiestrecke quer durch #Rom . #Kreuze hängt einer wie der nur auf, um andere auszugrenzen
Heute mal zu Besuch im #SBRNeustadt, denn heute geht es hier auch um die Verkehrssicherheit auf der #Hauptstraße. Herr #Kühn soll wohl auch vorbeikommen.
Did #Heraclitus say that you can't step into the same river twice? The answer may shock you!
“Die #noScholz #noSPD schiebt nun, eine perfide Klammer konstruierend, die #Rentner vor, um der #Unkraine nicht zu helfen. Dieser #Krieg wird nun wahlweise zwei Wunder erleben müssen: Entweder die Ukraine gewinnt trotz Scholz’ Unwilligkeit oder der Rentner-Volkssturm wird dann #fuckPutin in Berlin stoppen müssen.”
Kurze Zusammenfassung der letzten #Staddrat|ssitzung:
- Rettungspaket für soziale Projekte an der CDU gescheitert
- Keine Millieuschutzsatzung für Löbtau
- Abriss TJG-Werkstatt im Volkspark Briesnitz, dadurch Verfall von EU-Fördermitteln
- Keine Sanierung der Robotron-Kantine, dadurch Verfall von 5,5 Mio. Fördermitteln und Spenden.
- CDU bestellt so lange Gutachter ein, bis sie einen findet, der #Kühn die Schuld am Einsturz der #Carolabrücke gibt.
Das sind die ersten Auswirkungen der rechten Hegemonie im Rat, welche die Dresdnerinnen gewählt haben. Daran werden wir uns in den nächsten 5 Jahren gewöhnen müssen.
Hab ich was vergessen? Gab es vielleicht irgendwas Positives?
"We find that three key measures of scientific progress—major discoveries, methods and fields—each demonstrate that science evolves cumulatively."

"In #1939, at the conclusion of #Kuhn’s speech, twenty thousand people chanted, “Free America!” In #2024, nineteen thousand people cheered along as the soulless husk that once was #TuckerCarlson told them that Kamala Harris was going to be “the first Samoan-Malaysian, low-IQ former California prosecutor ever to be elected president.”"

Ufo-Anwalt #Lorek hat gemeinsam mit Max #Schreiber und Katja Kaiser (alle #FreieSucksen) ernsthaft Strafantrag gegen Bau-BM #Kühn wegen Baugefährdung (§319 StGB) gestellt, weil er die #Carolabrücke wegen der schlechten Note 2023 (3,4) nicht sofort sprerren ließ.
Zwar dürfte die Anzeige ins leere laufen, weil nie eine akute Einsturzgefahr oder verminderte Tragfähigkeit festgestellt wurde, was Maßnahmen nötig gemacht hätte, aber trotzdem krass, wenn auch erwartbar.
Was mir auffiel: Schreibt der seine Briefe wirklich noch mit Schreibmaschine? 
Jetzt läuft die mediale Hetze richtig an.
Laut BLÖD hätten Hilbert und Kühn die 1,7 Mrd. aus dem Verkauf der Woba "verprasst". Dabei wurde das Geld vorrangig zur Entschuldung der Stadt genutzt. Übrig blieben danach etwa 200 Mio. Das war 2006, lange bevoe #Hilbert und #Kühn ins Amt kamen.
FakeNIUS meint, dass man mit dem Geld für die #Verkehrsversuche die Brücke sanieren könne und Tag24 reitet wieder die Sau vom Antrag der Freien Wähler durchs Dorf.
Wie es scheint will man unbedingt Köpfe rollen sehen.
#Kuhn's Damascene moment, when #Aristotle suddenly makes sense to him.
![From Kuhn's Presence of Past Science, Lecture I, "Regaining the Past," p31:
Feeling that way, I continued to puzzle over the text, and my suspicions ultimately proved well-founded. I was sitting at my desk with the text of Aristotle’s Physics open in front of me and with a four-colored pencil in my hand. Looking up, I gazed abstractedly out of the window of my room— the visual image is one I can still recall. Suddenly the fragments in my head sorted themselves out in a new way, and fell into place together. My jaw dropped, for all at once Aristotle seemed a very good physicist indeed, but of a sort I'd never dreamed possible. Now I could see why he had said what he'd said, and why he had been believed. Statements that I had previ- ously taken for egregious mistakes now seemed to me, at worst, near misses within a powerful and generally successful tradition.
That sort of experience—an increasing puzzlement and malaise sud- denly resolved by a redescription, [a] resorting, and a reassembling of parts—often characterizes an early stage in the recovery of the past. Always it leaves much piecemeal mopping up to do, but the central change can- not be experienced piecemeal, one step at a time. Instead, it involves some relatively sudden and unstructured transformation in which some aspects of the ideas and behaviors under study sort themselves out differently and display patterns different from those visible before.](https://cdn.masto.host/writing/media_attachments/files/112/610/068/677/097/145/original/2cc286d1e428cf67.png "From Kuhn's Presence of Past Science, Lecture I, \"Regaining the Past,\" p31:

You can tell #Kuhn is thinking of #Wittgenstein, PI here: "to imagine a language means to imagine a form of life." This is from "Scientific Knowledge as Historical Product," 1977, first essay in The Essential Tension and also in The Last Writings of Thomas S. Kuhn.

> A scientist must accept a great many of the current knowledge claims of his community, for they are constitutive of the community’s practice, of the form of life, that is, of an enduring tribe. To refuse to accept them would be to decline membership in that tribe and thus to refuse the practice of science. Though there is a great deal about which members of an individual tribe—physicists or chemists, for example—may disagree, those very disagreements are made possible, recognizable, and discussable only by the far larger body of beliefs that members share, beliefs that unite them as members of a single tribe. That much of their body of belief[s] is simply among the givens of a given time. Discovering those givens is what the historian must do to recapture the integrity of an older mode of thought. If more time were now available to discover how the historian does so, phrases like “constitutive of the community’s practice” would come to seem less like mere bits of incantation.](https://cdn.masto.host/writing/media_attachments/files/112/444/674/098/395/355/original/596fe94ef4a76c54.png "Image of quote from The Last Writings of Thomas S.

The Bund created an American version of the Hitler Youth that educated children in the German language, German history and Nazi philosophy.
Although this organization tried to differentiate itself from the previously unsuccessful Friends of New Germany, the German Foreign Ministry commented that
“In reality…they are the same people, with the same principles, and the same appearance”.
The Bund began attracting the attention of the federal government in the summer of 1937 as rumors spread that Kuhn had 200,000 men ready to take up arms.
During that summer an FBI probe of the organization was conducted but no evidence of wrongdoing was found.
Later in 1938 Martin Dies of the House Un-American Activities Committee wildly proclaimed that Kuhn had 480,000 followers.
More accurate records show that at the peak of his power in 1938 Kuhn had only 8,500 members and another 5,000 “sympathizers”.
In February 1939 Kuhn and the Bund held their largest rally in Madison Square Garden
—ironically, one which marked the beginning of the end for the organization.
https://rarehistoricalphotos.com/american-nazi-organization-rally-madison-square-garden-1939/
In front of a crowd of 22,000, flanked by a massive portrait of George Washington, swastikas, and Americans flags,
Kuhn attacked FDR for being part of a Bolshevik-Jewish conspiracy,
calling him “Frank D. Rosenfeld” and criticizing the New Deal,
which Kuhn had deemed “the Jew Deal”.
Three thousand members of the Ordnungsdienst, the militant arm of the Bund, were on hand
and fistfights broke out in the crowd among those who had come to heckle Kuhn.
After the rally, New York District Attorney Thomas Dewey arrested Kuhn on charges of larceny and forgery.
He not only was convicted of these charges but he also confessed to being arrested multiple times for drunkenness, carrying on extra-marital affairs, and pocketing $15,000 from the Madison Square Garden rally.
After the war, Kuhn was deported to Germany;
he died there unceremoniously in 1951.
Following Kuhn’s arrest, the Bund slowly withered away, until its dissolution on 8 December 1941,
after the attack on Pearl Harbor.
After the United States declared war on Germany, federal officials began to arrest Bund officials.
Kuhn’s successor Gerhard Kunze was captured in Mexico and sentenced to 15 years of prison for “subversive activities”.
In the end, the Bund of German immigrants held little power, if any, and often made average Americans less sympathetic to Germany,
as the Bund’s extreme anti-Semitic and pro-Nazi views did not play well with the American public.
Even Nazi Germany realized this and attempted to distance itself from the Bund.
#Spanknobel #Kuhn
After Hitler’s rise to power in 1933, some German Americans formed groups to support the Nazi party in Germany and attempt to influence American politics.
The most notorious of these groups was
the 
German-American Bund, which tried to model itself as an American arm of Hitler’s Third Reich.
Although these groups wore uniforms and touted swastikas, in reality, they had few ties to Nazi Germany and their support among the larger German-American community was minimal.
Nevertheless, the group strongly promoted hatred for Jews and strove to bring Nazi-style fascism to the United States.
Initial support for American fascist organizations did come from Germany.
In May 1933 Nazi Deputy Führer Rudolf Hess gave authority to German immigrant 
Heinz #Spanknobel to create an American Nazi organization.
Shortly thereafter the Friends of New Germanywas created with help from the German consul in New York City.
The organization was based in New York but had a strong presence in Chicago.
The organization led by Spanknobel was openly pro-Nazi and engaged in activities
such as storming the German-language New Yorker Staats-Zeitung with the demand that Nazi-sympathetic articles be published,
and the infiltration of other non-political German-American organizations.
Spanknobel was ousted as the leader and subsequently deported in October 1933 when it was discovered he had failed to register as a foreigner agent.
The organization existed into the mid-1930s, although it always remained small, with a membership of between 5,000-10,000.
Mostly German citizens living in America and German emigrants who only recently had become citizens composed its ranks.
The organization busied itself with verbal attacks against Jews, Communists, and the Versailles Treaty.
Until 1935 the organization was openly supported by the Third Reich, although soon Nazi officials realized the organization was doing more harm than good in America and in December 1935 Hess ordered that all German citizens leave the Friends of New Germany;
also, all the group’s leaders were recalled to Germany.
Not long after the Friends of New Germany fell out of favor with the Nazis and was dismantled,
a new organization with similar goals arose in its place.
Formed in March 1936 in Buffalo/New York and calling itself the 
German-American Bund or Amerikadeutscher Volksbund,
the organization chose Fritz #Kuhn as its Bundesleiter.
The organization was soon filled with those calling themselves “Germans in America” and dreamed of the day when Nazism would rule the United States.
Although they were instructed not to accept German citizens in their organization,
they were not about to turn down anyone interested and many immigrants joined.
It is estimated that around 25% of Bund members were German nationals
—the rest being mostly first or second-generation Germans.
The Bund soon began to hold rallies filled with swastikas, Nazi salutes, and the singing of German songs.
The Bund created recreational camps such as Camp Siegfried in New York and Camp Nordland in New Jersey.
It also established Camp Hindenburg in Wisconsin and the group met frequently in Milwaukee and Chicago beer halls.

#Science / #Philosophy hive mind: What's the deal with pictures of Thomas #Kuhn? Anyone know why there are so many of the same weird style?
A book I read in grad school, The Structure of Scientific Revolutions, by Thomas Kuhn, is now available on Kindle for $1.99.
I'd buy it, for nostalgic purposes, but the printed edition is on the bottom shelf of the first bookcase in the home-library.
