I have so much I can write about Dick Cheney, but in the interest of time, and because no one reads long Twitter threads, I'll let this meme explain what I think

No it fucking doesn't
Do these idiots even realize that shooting Charlie Kirk makes you a worse person than Charlie Kirk?

Since the start of the year, I've tried to write more actively about foreign policy, international relations and whatever is happening in the world.

Here's one of my most recent pieces, on the crisis in Indonesia

Suella Braverman wrote a load of drivel in the LBC opinion. Don't waste your time reading it.

This is one of the most important things I've ever learned.
When I teach my terrorism class I discuss how academic literature shows that "propaganda of the deed" is mostly done by people from rich or comfortable middle class backgrounds. The UnitedHealthcare CEO killer suspect, who is from a rich family, seems yet another example

I haven't been as active on Blue Sky lately, but here's an update on my professional endeavors in the world of #Foreignpolicy and #Geopolitics.

I am writing a documentary on the crisis in the Congo. It's a passion project for me because I want to shine a light on forgotten conflicts.

The US military, the most powerful military the world has ever seen, is in the hands of bumbling idiots who can't even communicate securely.

It's taken me two weeks but I've finally written a deep dive into the Congo Crisis. One of my personal goals is to make geopolitics more easily accessible to the average person which is why I'm trying to simplify complex issues.

Thinking of Andrea Long Chu's description of the "far center" as people who hold reactionary beliefs but are obsessed with maintaining their self-image as a liberal person
"the only things dems need to cave on are race, gender, policing, and immigration" what kind of victory would this be
