If they can handcuff a U.S. Senator for asking a question, imagine what they will do to you.

Why has my “for you” become so utterly vile in the last few weeks? Anyone else seeing stuff that wouldn’t be “for them” in a million years?

This fellowship would not have been possible without the incredible support of some distinguished scholars. I’m so grateful to my UK sponsor @fisheridd , former supervisor @lemayhebert , Head of IDD @profdavidhudson , nominated referees @BeBedeGe @celder_m and Jason Hutton.

I’m delighted to be among the awardees of the @BritishAcademy_ international fellowships this year. I can’t wait to commence my research on variations in local reception of international peace missions at @unibirmingham next February!

May I propose this a rule of discourse: the making of solemn parallels between minor, annoying measures, health or otherwise, by well-meaning democratic governments AND the liquidation of the entire Jewish people in Europe by the Nazis aka the Holocaust displays crass insensitivity, bad taste, preposterous self-pity and mountainous, moronic ignorance. In a time when real history is constantly being distorted and misused, it cheapens it and justifies others to do so. Please stop doing it

First they came for the Communists
And I did not speak out Because I was not a communist Then they came for the Jews
And I did not speak out
Because I was not a Jew Then they came for me
And there was no one left
To speak out for me Pertinent words re Starmer’s smoking ban

I am very sad indeed to hear about Nic van de Walle’s passing. His work and writing has always inspired me a very great deal, and his contribution to knowledge has been exceptional. His book with Michael Bratton was one of the works that made me want to be an academic.

Timothy Snyder@TimothyDSnyder·
It helps to know history. It gives you a sense of dignity and confidence amidst the propaganda of war and genocide. Polish Foreign Minister Sikorski demonstrates this here at the UN.
Kancelaria Premiera@PremierRP

Minister @MSZ_RP @sikorskiradek podczas wczorajszego wystąpienia w #ONZ o prezentacji rosyjskiego ambasadora: Kijów nie jest klientem Zachodu. Kijów walczy o niezależność, a Ukraina ma demokratycznie wybrany rząd i nie jest zbrodniczym reżimem. To Rosja próbowała eksterminować Ukrainę i to nie pierwszy raz. Historia pokazuje, że często to Rosja była agresorem, a nie ofiarą.
