**Die Schweiz hat ein Problem mit der LGBTIQ+-Ideologie. Und wir sollten endlich darüber sprechen.** Redner: Michèle Binswanger, Chris Brönimann, Andy Mosetti, Bayan Furutan und Andrea Seaman. **Tickets kaufen:** [https://eventfrog.ch/en/p/politics-community/politics/transideologie-im-fokus-fakten-gefuehle-und-politik-7456756486456223440.html](https://eventfrog.ch/en/p/politics-community/politics/transideologie-im-fokus-fakten-gefuehle-und-politik-7456756486456223440.html) Im Januar hat der Bundesrat einen nationalen Aktionsplan gegen sogenannte «Hate Crimes» gegenüber LGBTIQ-Personen verabschiedet. Darunter fällt zunehmend auch «verbale» Gewalt; ein dehnbarer Begriff, der kritische Meinungsäusserungen schnell unter Verdacht stellt. Gleichzeitig plant das Parlament, Geschlecht und «Geschlechtsidentität» in die Anti-Rassismus-Strafnorm (Art. 261bis) aufzunehmen. Und mit neuen Regulierungen für Kommunikationsplattformen soll ‘ransphobe Hassrede’ im Internet eingeschränkt werden. Was hier entsteht, ist ein politisches Instrument zur Einschränkung legitimer Kritik an einer Ideologie. Der Fall von Emanuel Brünisholz, der 2025 für einen Facebook-Kommentar zehn Tage im Gefängnis verbrachte, zeigt, wie weit diese Entwicklung bereits gegangen ist. Eine Meinungsäusserung, die früher als banal oder streitbar gegolten hätte, wird heute kriminalisiert. Doch nicht nur der Staat treibt diese Entwicklung voran. Auch NGOs liefern dazu ideologisches Material. Organisationen wie die LGBTIQ-Helpline sammeln und klassifizieren Äusserungen als «Hassverbrechen», um jährlich alarmistische Berichte zu veröffentlichen. Das sind Berichte, die regelmässig als Grundlage für weitere Einschränkungen der Meinungsfreiheit dienen. Wenn Worte zu Verbrechen erklärt werden, steht mehr auf dem Spiel als nur eine politische Debatte. Es geht um das Fundament einer offenen Gesellschaft: die Freiheit, Fragen zu stellen, auch unbequeme. Und genau diese Fragen werden dringend gebraucht. Was ist eine Transfrau? Die Antworten darauf bleiben vage und widersprüchlich. Was ist eine Frau? Hier gibt es deutlich klarere biologische und gesellschaftlich akzeptierte Definitionen. Was bedeutet es wirklich, «im falschen Körper geboren» zu sein? Ist Genderdysphorie eine medizinische Krankheit oder ein ideologisch aufgeladenes Konzept? Und schliesslich: Handelt es sich bei der LGBTQ+-Bewegung um eine schützenswerte Minderheit oder zunehmend um eine politische Bewegung mit festen Glaubenssätzen, die sie der gesamten Gesellschaft aufzwingen will, sei es durch Sprachvorgaben, neue Pronomen oder sozialen Druck? Obwohl das Akronym LGBTQ+ auch Schwule und Lesben einschliesst, wächst der Unmut in den eigenen Reihen. Immer mehr homosexuelle Männer und Frauen haben es satt, mit dem «TQ+» in einen Topf geworfen zu werden. Sie sehen in der aktuellen Genderideologie einen Widerspruch zur Idee der Homosexualität selbst. Gerade weil die Genderideologie heute politischen Einfluss hat – Gesetze prägt, Institutionen formt und öffentliche Debatten einschränkt – braucht es offene, ehrliche und furchtlose Diskussionen. Denn eine freie Gesellschaft lebt nicht davon, dass alle derselben Meinung sind. Sie lebt davon, dass wir den gängigen Orthodoxien widersprechen dürfen. Deshalb organisiert das [Bündnis Redefreiheit ](https://www.buendnisredefreiheit.ch)am Dienstag, 2. Juni, eine öffentliche Diskussion zu diesen Fragen. Der Abend ist als offene Diskussion angelegt. Die Referenten werden unterschiedliche Perspektiven vertreten. Das Publikum ist ausdrücklich eingeladen, Fragen zu stellen und Einwände zu formulieren. Ziel ist keine Einigung um jeden Preis, sondern eine präzisere Klärung der Streitpunkte. Wenn am Ende klarer ist, worüber wir sprechen und worüber wir uns nicht einig sind, ist bereits etwas erreicht. Die Redner: **Chris Brönimann** (56) blickt auf drei Jahrzehnte Lebensreise mit Transhintergrund zurück – eine Erfahrung, die seine heutige Perspektive tief prägt. Nachdem er ab Ende der 90er-Jahre als Nadia Brönimann die Öffentlichkeit an seiner Transition teilhaben liess, folgte im Sommer 2024 die Rückkehr zu seiner Identität als Mann. Heute nutzt er diese fundierte Lebenserfahrung, um die oft polarisierte Debatte zu versachlichen und sich kritisch mit aktuellen Entwicklungen auseinanderzusetzen. Sein besonderes Augenmerk gilt dabei dem Schutz von Minderjährigen vor übereilten medizinischen Eingriffen. Er plädiert dezidiert für eine entschleunigte, ergebnisoffene psychotherapeutische Begleitung anstelle von vorschnellen medizinischen Schritten. Als Referent an Schulen und Berater für betroffene Familien vermittelt der in Lachen (SZ) lebende Experte zwischen den Fronten. Er versteht sich als Brückenbauer, dem die langfristige psychische Gesundheit junger Menschen wichtiger ist als ideologische Debatten. **Andy C. Mosetti**, geboren 1970 in Zürich, ist ein engagierter Aktivist in der Gay & Lesbian Community mit weit über 30 Jahren Erfahrung in der Förderung von Gleichberechtigung und Offenheit. Als offen schwul lebender Unternehmer in der Reisebranche bringt er Expertise in Medien, Events und Jugendarbeit ein. **Bayan Furutan** arbeitet tagsüber in der Welt der Finanzen und Buchhaltung. Jedoch widmet er seine Freizeit Debatten, Philosophie, und Literatur. Seit mehreren Jahren beschäftigt er sich privat mit Themen wie Transgenderismus und Redefreiheit, über die er schreibt und recherchiert. Jetzt tritt er zum ersten Mal auf die Bühne: unorthodox und neuartig. Wir erwarten eine spannende Dynamik und wünschen ihm das Beste im Haifischbecken. **Andrea Seaman** ist Geschäftsführer von Bündnis Redefreiheit. Er ist auch Präsident des Debattierclubs Zurich Salon. Er ist Redaktor des deutschen Online-Magazins NovoArgumente und hat als Redaktor für den Schweizer Monat gearbeitet. Er hat einen Master-Abschluss in Philosophie und Geschichte der Universität Freiburg (Schweiz). -- Der Zurich Salon empfiehlt diese Veranstaltung des Bündnisses Redefreiheit im Prinzip und hilft bei der öffentlichen Bekanntmachung des Events via Meetup.

Software delivery is changing faster than most organizations can keep up with. Teams are shipping more. Expectations are rising. New capabilities are entering the development workflow at speed. But behind the momentum, many organizations are asking the same questions: * What does this actually change for our teams? * How do we adopt this without losing control? * And what do we need to have in place to make this work? Because one thing is becoming clear: *The gap between teams that adapt and those that don’t, is growing fast.* This event gives you a clear, practical view on what’s happening, what it means for your engineering organization, and what you should be doing next. **Real insights, real trade-offs, and real next steps.** Program and Registration: https://events.xebia.com/microsoft/ai-reshaping-software-delivery-zurich-june-2

Shooting only in Auto or Program mode is a thing of the past. We will learn when it makes sense to use Manual (M), Shutter Priority (TV), or Aperture Priority (AV) modes to create artistic compositions under a wide variety of conditions. This workshop is designed for beginners as well as photographers who want to dive deeper into their camera settings, lenses, and the many features their gear has to offer. **Part 1: Getting Started (2h)** * **Full Control:** Mastering Manual (M) mode. * **The Essentials:** Understanding Aperture, Shutter Speed, and ISO, and how they shape your image. * **Semi-Auto Modes:** When and why to use AV or TV modes. * **Focus:** An insight into various autofocus options. **Part 2: Lenses & Perspective (2h)** Unlike prime lenses, telephoto lenses offer more flexibility without having to move—but they also come with specific challenges. We will explore the pros and cons of different lenses and learn which glass is best suited for which purpose. **Part 3: Practical Application (2h)** Putting theory into practice outdoors, followed by a final Q&A session. **Course Hours:** The course runs from 10:00 AM to 5:00 PM. **Registration:** Please register by **May 24, 2026**, via email at admin@michaelcalabro.com. The course requires a minimum number of participants to take place. Confirmation will be sent as soon as the minimum number is reached. **Participants:** Min. 4 / Max. 8 www.michaelcalabro.com

Join us for an informal networking walk with our women’s business group. We will meet in front of Starbucks Silhcity at **10:15**. Anyone who would like to grab a coffee can do so before we start walking together at **10:30**. The walk will take us through **Allmend Wiese** and will last around **1.5 hours**. The idea is to keep the atmosphere relaxed and natural: we’ll walk, talk, switch conversation partners, and get to know each other while on the go. This meetup is a chance to connect with other women in business, exchange experiences, share ideas, and build new professional relationships in an informal setting. ☔️ Please note: if the weather is very bad, we may need to postpone the meetup. 📸 Photos may be taken during the event. If you are uncomfortable being photographed, please let the organizer know before or at the beginning of the meetup. ☎️ I may also ask you to share your WhatsApp number so I can keep you updated about our exact location in case you arrive late. Looking forward to walking, chatting, and connecting with you!

Welcome to our meetup! In our meetups we openly discuss and share our experiences related to running an Amazon FBA business, Amazon KDP business or other online business out of Switzerland. There's no fixed agenda or presentations/speakers. Everyone gets the chance to shortly introduce his/her experience with online business so far and to discuss any issues he/she is facing at the moment. Our meetups are valuable both for people just starting out as well as for experienced entrepreneurs. Next to providing useful practical information, I believe our meetups are just as valuable for the chance to meet similar minded, motivated entrepreneurs. It's great for your own mindset to meet other people who also think out of the 9-to-5 box. Furthermore, our meetups provide a good networking opportunity: we already have various collaborations between members of our group resulting from our meetups. We will meet in the lobby of the Motel One hotel (Stockerstrasse 61, corner of Brandschenkestrasse; after you entered the motel, you'll find the lobby at the far left). If you like to have a drink, please get it at the bar before coming to the lobby, so we can start on time at 7pm. Meetups are held in English, unless all participants understand German. Please only sign up if you're actually planning on coming. Looking forward to meeting you! \*\*\* no hidden agenda, no one trying to sell you his services, 100% entrepreneurs helping entrepreneurs \*\*\*

Two very different, complementary topics for our June evening. One on the small, everyday habits that make teams actually collaborate. The other on how a platform and a cultural movement transformed IT in the public sector. Here's what's planned for the evening: 17:30 - 18:00 - Arrival and first drinks 18:00 - 18:45 - Micro Habits for better Teamwork by Dr. Denniz Dönmez 18:45 - 19:30 - From DevOps to Digital Sovereignty: How a Movement Became a Platform by Syrian Hadad 19:30 - 20:30 - Networking, Open Space & More drinks\* **Micro Habits for better Teamwork** Great teamwork is like solving a puzzle, and not like playing poker, it's not about playing against each other, but rather achieving real collaboration. Micro Habits are psychological hacks that create big results in teams. Micro Habits for Better Teamwork span seven behavioral domains, such as taking responsibility, creating psychological safety, and testing our assumptions. Each provides concrete, small, actionable behaviors that lead to major improvements in collaboration. This talk presents practical, everyday tools based on real-world experience that can be applied immediately to make teamwork easier and more effective, without lengthy coaching programs or complex team-development processes. With Micro Habits, teams unlock their full potential step by step. **Dr. Denniz Dönmez** Scientific agilist and co-creator of Micro Habits for better Teamwork. 15 years experience leading teams and consulting market leaders with a background and PhD in agile methods. **From DevOps to Digital Sovereignty: How a Movement Became a Platform** IT in the public sector is anything but simple: long-established landscapes, strict regulatory requirements, complex processes, and often more than 500 business applications that must be operated reliably. For a long time, this meant ordering individual servers, databases, DNS entries, firewall rules, and storage, then assembling everything manually. Every application was unique. Pets instead of cattle. This talk tells the story of how the DevOps idea took hold in exactly this environment — first as a cultural movement, and later as a concrete operating and architectural model. Step by step, individual infrastructure evolved into a platform, manual work into automation, and isolated solutions into standardization. The result: the Aargau Cloud Platform and a dedicated platform engineering team. In an environment shaped by legacy systems, federal structures, and long lifecycle expectations, platform thinking becomes the foundation for digital sovereignty: maintaining control, reducing dependencies, and still staying innovative — without simply handing everything over to others. **Syrian Hadad** Syrian Hadad is a CTO and long-standing technology and platform leader in the public sector. Among other achievements, he built the Aargau Cloud Platform and helped establish DevOps, cloud, and architecture topics strategically within the organization. Together with the IT organization of the Canton of Aargau, he won the 2023 Digital Economy Award (Digital Excellence) for the consistent transformation toward platforms, cloud-native technologies, and modern governance.

**A creative walk & talk for designers and creatives** Join us for a half-day walk and talk along the scenic Uetliberg ridge, designed to connect outside the usual networking format. No presentations. No panels. Just great people, ideas, and a shared path. We start at Triemli Station and hike up through the forest to Uto Staffel (about 1.5 hours), guided by [Mario Stipetic](https://www.linkedin.com/in/mariostipetic/). From there, we continue into a relaxed 1 to 1.5 hour ridge walk along the Planetenweg with views over Zürich, the lake, and the Alps. Conversations unfold naturally along the way. We move in small groups, rotate, and share thoughts on current projects, creative challenges, and topics like AI in design, or whatever emerges in the moment. We end at Gut Mädikon Hofcafé, a hidden farm café, where we spend about one hour enjoying coffee, homemade cake, and relaxed conversation. This is networking without the pressure. Just movement, fresh air, and meaningful exchange. See you there! 😇 **WhatsApp Group (Coordination)** We’ll send the WhatsApp invite after you RSVP. You can also join via Discord below. —— **The Easy Route** Prefer to skip the steep climb? Take the S10 train from Zürich HB to Uetliberg (about 20 minutes), then walk down to Uto Staffel and meet us there around 11:00 AM. Timing will be coordinated via the group on the day. **Getting Back** We walk back along the ridge to Uetliberg, either retracing the Planetenweg or taking the path near the Uetliberg tower. From there, walk down to Triemli station and catch the train home. **Physical Fitness** The initial climb takes about 1.5 hours and is steep, requiring a reasonable level of fitness. If you are unsure, take the easy route. The views are the same, and the Hofcafé cake tastes just as good. **RSVP** If your plans change and you can no longer attend, please update your RSVP so we can adjust the reservation at the Hofcafé. —— **📅 Date** Sunday, June 7, 2026 **📍 Meeting Point (Start)** 10:00 AM at Triemli Station, Zürich **⏰ Duration** \~6 to 7 hours total (including lunch break) **🥾 Difficulty** Moderate (steep initial climb) **⛰️ Elevation gain** \~320 m (485 m > 805 m) **🎒 What to bring** * Hiking shoes or sturdy trail shoes (no sneakers, no sandals) * Water bottle (at least 0.5L) * Weather-appropriate layers (cooler in the forest, windy on the ridge) * Optional snack * Sun protection (hat or cap, sunscreen) **🚶 Return** \~13:30 from Hofcafé —— **🔗 Discord** Get event reminders and connect with other members on Discord: ➡️ [discord.gg/PAyRBDhKkk](http://discord.gg/PAyRBDhKkk) —— **Who’s Visual Fields?** Visual Fields is a network of designers and creatives built for people to connect, support, and share with fellow experts.

Monthly working lunch for Columbus business owners. One specific topic, one to three actions you can run this week. You can be the best at what you do and still be invisible. If local buyers cannot find you, the phone does not ring. Marketing Monday Lunch + Learn is a monthly working lunch for Columbus business owners focused on building relationships, local networking, and local marketing. Every kind of local business welcome. No pitch round, no pressure, no upsell. **This month** Most local businesses pick one or two places to be visible and call it good. The result is inconsistent calls and a feeling that marketing is not working. We will walk through the three places every local business needs to show up, plus the fourth place most owners ignore that quietly produces the warmest leads. **What to expect** Doors open at noon. Order lunch and drinks at the cafe counter or bring your own. You get real conversation with other local owners and a focused marketing lesson.

Join us Sunday, June 7th at 10am for a gentle, beginner-friendly yoga flow in Goodale park with Victoria, one of our very own vegan community members and certified yoga teacher! Whether you’re brand new to yoga or a long time practitioner, this class is designed to help you slow down, stretch, breathe, and reconnect with yourself. Expect a relaxed, accessible flow focused on easing tension, moving mindfully, and leaving you feeling a little more grounded. All levels welcome! Bring water and a yoga mat (or towel if you don’t have a mat). A suggested donation of $10 is appreciated, but payment is absolutely not required to attend and enjoy class. A Venmo QR code will be available on-site for anyone who would like to contribute. After class, we’ll head to Woodhouse Vegan for anyone who wants to keep the good vibes going over food and conversation 🌱

Join us for lunch and meet our very successful group. We are each others sales team...always looking for referrals for our members. If you are looking for new clients, let us help you out! Bring your business cards and brochures to share with us. We have a speaker each week so that we can learn about their business. Because we have only one member per business, we have many of the spots filled. However, we are specifically looking for an estate attorney, a handyman/electrician, and an event planner. We have referrals for you! All visitors are welcome. Any questions contact [pmarchio@farmersagent.com](mailto:pmarchio@farmersagent.com)
