Tickets zu verschenken!
Ich habe am Samstag bei einer Rubbellos-Aktion zwei Freikarten für die nächste "Yours Truly"-Drag-Show in Düsseldorf gewonnen und möchte diese gerne weitergeben an Menschen, die sich den Eintritt sonst eher nicht leisten können (bevorzugt junge Queers und Angehörige anderer marginalisierter Gruppen).
Eine Begründung ist nicht nötig, eure finanziellen Verhältnisse gehen ja niemanden etwas an. Schreibt mir einfach eine kurze Privatnachrichten und ich lasse dann den Zufall entscheiden, wer die Tickets bekommt.

A large majority of Germans still thinks climate & nature protection are very important. But it has declined in recent years and now ranks only #8 among major concerns - not surprising in the light of the systematic onslaught of politicians and lobby groups against a green transformation and drawing down the fossil system. A majority also thinks the gvmt isn't doing enough. Of course there's also the schizophrenia that the same population happily continues the extractive lifestyle.

Labour’s plans for immigration will undoubtedly spawn a new wave of hostile environment policies that use digital technology, AI and automated systems to track, surveil and make life-changing decisions about #migrants.
We urgently need a ban on #AI in areas such as #immigration and policing, where it is being used to treat people as a potential threat.
The government should be focusing on these harms rather than buying into Reform’s rhetoric.
