= Political messages on the Mafiasi Dashboard =
* The Server AG wanted to add a small toast with political messages on the Mafiasi Dashboard; this pull request was stopped by Tom
* The FSR decided in the last meeting to avoid making political statements wherever possible
* Certain messages are particularly troubling to us
* Tom consulted the HoPo department: It is generally acceptable for the FSR to take political positions. However, they should focus on specific statements or actions rather than criticising parties or individuals
* The Server AG is okay with modifying individual messages.
* Freddy says that it is not sensible for the FSR to remain entirely apolitical, as this would prevent support for causes like TV-Stud
* Additionally the FSR Informatik has previously taken political action on several occasions
* Tom says that intrusive political messages don't belong on a neutral dashboard page; such decisions should be made in a general assembly of the faculty
* On the other hand, the toast was made to not be intentionally intrusive
* Lilly believes it is important to use available spaces to clearly show the faculty's values. Failing to oppose far-right positions essentially condones them
* Maddin says Mafiasi should not exclude anyone. Lilly responds that the messages do not exclude anyone from using Mafiasi
* Hauke says the faculty is inherently political and can take positions. However, such positions should represent the whole faculty, rather than being prominently displayed on Mafiasi by a few individuals
* Tom sees this as a misuse of Mafiasi, advocating that such issues should be decided in a general assembly
* Philipp notes that less popular views could also be promoted by individuals, suggesting community guidelines for this
* Lilly counters that, aside from the Wiki, Mafiasi does not have much user-generated content. Only confirmed members of the Server AG can post content outside the Wiki
* Freddy proposes discussing political values in a future general assembly to establish a faculty position. This decision could include how such positions are displayed
* Jonas argues Mafiasi should remain a neutral platform without political messages, suggesting these could go on subpages instead
* Freddy counters that, despite this, it would still make sense through a joint decision by the student council. Additionally, such an action loses its impact if it is not sufficiently visible.
* Tom suggests continuing the discussion in the general assembly.
* Freddy warns against appearing apolitical, as this may prevent support for meaningful actions
* Can emphasises the importance of a clear stance against far-right ideologies while keeping the dashboard neutral
* Freddy notes that a clear political alignment can make the FSR approachable for discrimination cases
* Sina adds that international students often don’t know they can contact the FSR with issues
* Philipp says that the last meeting's discussion might not have been fully conveyed in the brief notes.
* Lilly proposes a compromise: instead of freezing the issue until the next general assembly, a more neutral, less loaded statement could be displayed on the Mafiasi Dashboard, referring to the FSR and the university's anti-discrimination office
* Freddy supports this and suggests creating a working group to address discrimination issues among (international) students
* Lilly will prepare an implementation of her proposal and reach out again.
* We will continue discussing this next week.

= Political stance of the FSR =
* The FSR will criticise individual actions and positions rather than broadly opposing the BAE group.
* Freddy warns that any collaboration with BAE can be very risky.
* Several student councils were dominated by BAE for years, leading to blocked resources (finances, rooms) for affected faculties.
* Our FSR once had a BAE member who was unwilling to step down voluntarily.
* While not everything BAE does is bad, Freddy urges caution as they can create significant trouble.
* Tom suggests a "BAE History Lesson" to inform new FSR members about the group.
* It is also important to share this knowledge with the faculty.
* Hauke notes that BAE will be closer geographically after the move to the new Ikum building. 
* Jonas proposes a formal incompatibility resolution to simplify rejecting BAE involvement.
* Freddy warns against direct conflict, as BAE employs exhausting tactics.
* Freddy reiterates that the issue is less about BAE's political stance and more about their extreme methods.
* General recommendation from Tom: Research BAE and read experiences to gain insight.
* We thank Freddy for his input and would be happy if he could join the history lesson.

= Marking furniture for the move =
* Tom provides an update on the move. The clearing date is late January, so furniture for disposal should be marked now
* Can points out that the FSR has been barely involved in the planning and suggests pushing for more involvement. Meetings have not included us so far.
* Tom has sent a relevant email today, hoping for inclusion in future planning meetings.
* There’s hope we might get rooms at the MIN Forum.
* Legally, the faculty is entitled to rooms, and two are insufficient.
* While aware of the room shortage, we must push for more.
* Jonas asks if there is a room concept for student AGs (e.g., Bit-Bots). It seems unlikely.
