Miguel Afonso CaetanoFlash news: An increasing number of intelligent and educated people don't want to live in an idiocracy... :-D"Last week, Aix Marseille University, France’s largest university, invited American scientists who believe their work is at risk of being censored by Donald Trump administration’s anti-science policies to continue their research in France. Today, the university announced that it is already seeing great interest from scientists at NASA, Yale, Stanford, and other American schools and government agencies, and that it wants to expand the program to other schools and European countries to absorb all the researchers who want to leave the United States. “We are witnessing a new brain drain,” Éric Berton, Aix Marseille University’s president, said in a press release. “We will do everything in our power to help as many scientists as possible continue their research. However, we cannot meet all demands on our own. The Ministry of Education and Research is fully supporting and assisting us in this effort, which is intended to expand at both national and European levels.”"<a href="https://www.404media.co/nasa-yale-and-stanford-scientists-consider-scientific-exile-french-university-says/?ref=daily-stories-newsletter" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://www.404media.co/nasa-yale-and-stanford-scientists-consider-scientific-exile-french-university-says/?ref=daily-stories-newsletter</a><a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/USA" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#USA</a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/Trump" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Trump</a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/Idiocracy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Idiocracy</a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/Science" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Science</a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/BrainDrain" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#BrainDrain</a>

NonilexThe <a href="https://masto.ai/tags/Education" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Education</a> Dept said Tuesday it was cutting its staff by about 50%, advancing <a href="https://masto.ai/tags/Trump" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Trump</a>’s goal of diminishing — & eliminating — the agency.  Senior department officials said 1,315 employees were being laid off & that another almost 600 had already accepted offers to leave the agency *voluntarily*. That will reduce a dept that had about 4,133 people on the first day of the Trump admin to fewer than 2,200.<a href="https://masto.ai/tags/USpol" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#USpol</a> <a href="https://masto.ai/tags/idiocracy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#idiocracy</a> <a href="https://www.cnn.com/2025/03/11/politics/department-of-education-cuts/index.html" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://www.cnn.com/2025/03/11/politics/department-of-education-cuts/index.html</a>

The_Caretaker<a href="https://med-mastodon.com/@luckytran" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@luckytran</a> I'm surprised they care. A single school shooting in Texas kills a lot more kids than measles and they don't give a shit about getting a dozen school shootings. Not to mention how many kids are killed by cars per year. Can't do anything to regulate guns or cars no matter how many people die. I doubt these idiots will vaccinate in relevant numbers. <a href="https://urbanists.social/tags/BanGuns" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#BanGuns</a> <a href="https://urbanists.social/tags/FuckCars" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#FuckCars</a> <a href="https://urbanists.social/tags/Vaccines" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Vaccines</a> <a href="https://urbanists.social/tags/MAGA" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#MAGA</a> <a href="https://urbanists.social/tags/Idiocracy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Idiocracy</a> <a href="https://urbanists.social/tags/Kakistocracy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Kakistocracy</a>
