@futurebird @medley56 @wmd @alexwild Yeah, that is a fear I share. Especially if the real research remains behind paywalls, and the fake ones will obviously be open access. Guess which ones will be shared more. Try fighting fake news then.. I guess, as bad as it is, it is one more argument to make all research Open Access.

Marcel Abraas (kritischelezer@mastodon.social)'s status on Friday, 24-Nov-2023 19:13:47 JST Marcel Abraas @scribe @aliettejonkers @statsguy About 100%. As the party with the largest number of votes (by a huge margin, 50% higher than nr.2) they get the initiative to form a coalition. They need to fill at least 75 seats of 150, and they can do that with the rightwing VVD and new (mid to rightwing) party NSC. Both are already changing their previous 'no' to a 'maybe', so that willl happen. And they will probably add the farmer's party BBB as a 4th to have a large majority.

Following the law is not repression. Also, democracy works fine without capitalism, so there is no problem getting rid of that, while keeping democracy. As flawed as it is, it is still the best we have - unless you can offer a better alternative, of course. Don't throw out the baby with the bathwater.
