MDMRN<p>Wanted: Eiichiro Oda Before One Piece (Pixtagram Repost)</p><p>Wanted is a collection of single stories written by Eiichiro Oda before he developed One Piece. These include Wanted!, Kami kara Mirai no Present, Ikki Yakou, Monsters, and Romance Dawn. Monsters is the one I had already read before, including the anime adaptation from Netflix. The others, I had no familiarity with.</p><p>Overall, it was fun. From gunslingers to a traveling monk to one of the early precursors to One Piece itself, these stories were a lot of fun and had that Oda flair to them.</p><p><a href="https://urusai.social/tags/Manga" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Manga</span></a> <a href="https://urusai.social/tags/MangaCollector" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>MangaCollector</span></a> <a href="https://urusai.social/tags/MangaReview" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>MangaReview</span></a> <a href="https://urusai.social/tags/Mangagram" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Mangagram</span></a> <a href="https://urusai.social/tags/MangaCommunity" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>MangaCommunity</span></a> <a href="https://urusai.social/tags/MangaPost" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>MangaPost</span></a> <a href="https://urusai.social/tags/MangaRecommendation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>MangaRecommendation</span></a> <a href="https://urusai.social/tags/InstaManga" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>InstaManga</span></a> <a href="https://urusai.social/tags/MangaLover" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>MangaLover</span></a> <a href="https://urusai.social/tags/MangaReader" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>MangaReader</span></a> <a href="https://urusai.social/tags/AmReading" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>AmReading</span></a> <a href="https://urusai.social/tags/VizMedia" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>VizMedia</span></a> <a href="https://urusai.social/tags/EiichiroOda" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>EiichiroOda</span></a> <a href="https://urusai.social/tags/OdaEiichiro" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>OdaEiichiro</span></a> <a href="https://urusai.social/tags/OnePiece" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>OnePiece</span></a> <a href="https://urusai.social/tags/WantedEiichiroOdaBeforeOnePiece" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>WantedEiichiroOdaBeforeOnePiece</span></a> <a href="https://urusai.social/tags/Bookstodon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Bookstodon</span></a></p>

Tina<p><a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Soziale" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Soziale</span></a> Medien wirken laut <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Rothmund" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Rothmund</span></a> radikalisierend, da sie geschlossene Echokammern schaffen. Nutzer treffen auf Gleichgesinnte, was radikale Einstellungen weiter verstärkt. Algorithmen fördern <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Polarisierung" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Polarisierung</span></a> zusätzlich. Medienkompetenz und kritischer Umgang mit sozialen Plattformen müssen gestärkt werden, um <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Manipulation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Manipulation</span></a> und <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Radikalisierung" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Radikalisierung</span></a> frühzeitig entgegenzuwirken.<br><a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/leseliste25" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>leseliste25</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/bookstodon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>bookstodon</span></a></p>
Tina<p>Rechtsradikale Gruppen bieten Anhängern <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Identit%C3%A4t" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Identität</span></a> und <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Gemeinschaft" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Gemeinschaft</span></a>, die ihnen anderswo fehlt. Rothmund zeigt, dass das Bedürfnis nach Zugehörigkeit entscheidend für die Radikalisierung ist. Extremismus wird so zum scheinbar attraktiven Angebot in einer instabilen Welt. <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Pr%C3%A4vention" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Prävention</span></a> gelingt daher durch frühzeitige Förderung alternativer, <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/demokratischer" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>demokratischer</span></a> Gemeinschaftserfahrungen.<br><a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/leseliste25" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>leseliste25</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/bookstodon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>bookstodon</span></a></p>
Tina<p>Extremistische Gruppen nutzen bewusst Identitätskonflikte und schaffen einfache Feindbilder. Diese Schwarz-Weiß-Wahrnehmung gibt Halt und Orientierung, birgt aber großes Konfliktpotential. Rothmund warnt vor simplifizierten Erklärungen, denn sie fördern ideologische Radikalisierung. Differenzierte Auseinandersetzungen sind essenziell, um die Radikalisierung einzudämmen.<br><a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/bookstodon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>bookstodon</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/leseliste2025" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>leseliste2025</span></a></p>
Tina<p>Angst und Frustration machen Menschen empfänglich für rechtsextreme Propaganda. Rothmund erklärt, dass Gefühle der Bedrohung und soziale Abstiegsängste gezielt politisch instrumentalisiert werden. Besonders anfällig sind Personen mit einer niedrigen Resilienz gegenüber Unsicherheiten. Politische Bildung und soziale Integration helfen, solche Radikalisierungen zu verhindern.<br><a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/leseliste25" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>leseliste25</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/bookstodon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>bookstodon</span></a></p>
Tina<p>Rechtsradikalisierung entsteht nicht zufällig. Rothmund zeigt, wie persönliche Krisen, mangelnde Anerkennung und Unsicherheit extremistisches Denken fördern. Menschen, die sich gesellschaftlich ausgeschlossen fühlen, neigen stärker dazu, autoritären <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Ideologien" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Ideologien</span></a> zu folgen. Das Buch verdeutlicht: Radikalisierung ist oft Ausdruck tiefer psychologischer Bedürfnisse nach Zugehörigkeit und Orientierung.<br><a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/leseliste25" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>leseliste25</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/bookstodon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>bookstodon</span></a></p>
Tina<p>Warum wenden sich Menschen dem <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Rechtsextremismus" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Rechtsextremismus</span></a> zu? In „Psychologie der Rechtsradikalisierung“ untersucht Tobias Rothmund die Ursachen <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/extremistischer" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>extremistischer</span></a> Einstellungen. Er zeigt, welche psychologischen Mechanismen und sozialen Faktoren eine Rolle spielen und erläutert, warum Prävention wichtiger ist als nachträgliche Reaktionen. Ein Buch, das <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Radikalisierung" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Radikalisierung</span></a> nicht nur erklärt, sondern auch Wege aufzeigt, ihr vorzubeugen.<br><a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/leseliste25" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>leseliste25</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/bookstodon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>bookstodon</span></a></p>

Flipboard Tech Desk<p>Further publishing and promotion of "Careless People: A Cautionary Tale of Power, Greed and Lost Idealism," by former Meta employee Sarah Wynn-Williams, must stop immediately, according to an arbitrator's ruling in a case Meta brought against Wynn-Williams and her publisher, Flatiron Books.

Meta says that the ruling "affirms that Sarah Wynn-Williams' false and defamatory book should never have been published." Wynn-Williams left Meta eight years ago; the book details alleged claims of sexual harassment, including by current policy chief Joel Kaplan, as well as a culture of irresponsible, power-hungry leadership and promoting misinformation.</p><p><a href="https://flip.it/jnziiy" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="">flip.it/jnziiy</span><span class="invisible"></span></a></p><p><a href="https://flipboard.social/tags/Books" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Books</span></a> <a href="https://flipboard.social/tags/Bookstodon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Bookstodon</span></a> <span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://a.gup.pe/u/bookstodon" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@<span>bookstodon</span></a></span> <a href="https://flipboard.social/tags/Meta" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Meta</span></a> <a href="https://flipboard.social/tags/Tech" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Tech</span></a> <a href="https://flipboard.social/tags/Technology" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Technology</span></a></p>

Tina<p>Brodkorbs Analyse zeigt: Der Verfassungsschutz bedroht potenziell, was er schützen soll – die Demokratie. Politische Einflussnahme und mangelnde Transparenz führen zu Misstrauen und Polarisierung. Er plädiert für dessen Abschaffung, fordert mehr öffentliche Kontrolle und stärkere Bürgerbeteiligung, um demokratische Werte konsequent und wirksam zu verteidigen.<br>. <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/leseliste25" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>leseliste25</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/bookstodon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>bookstodon</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/bookstodongermany" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>bookstodongermany</span></a></p>
Tina<p>Brodkorb betont, dass der Verfassungsschutz nicht neutral agiert, sondern politische Trends prägt und verstärkt. Durch selektive Beobachtung werden manche Debatten beeinflusst und andere ignoriert, was eine ungleiche demokratische Teilhabe erzeugt. Er fordert daher, den Schutz der Demokratie in zivile Hände zu legen, um das demokratische Fundament zu stärken.<br>. <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/leseliste25" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>leseliste25</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/bookstodon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>bookstodon</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/bookstodongermany" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>bookstodongermany</span></a></p>
Tina<p>Die vermeintliche Schutzfunktion des Verfassungsschutzes wirkt oft kontraproduktiv: Indem er Debatten durch Eingriffe beeinflusst, verhindert er echte demokratische Meinungsbildung. Das stärkt extremistische Positionen, statt sie einzudämmen. Transparenz und Zivilgesellschaft sollten daher zentrale Stützen der Demokratie sein, nicht geheime Behördenüberwachung.<br>. <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/leseliste25" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>leseliste25</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/bookstodon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>bookstodon</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/bookstodongermany" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>bookstodongermany</span></a></p>
