‘Artistic genius’: celebrity auteur-directors after #MeToo between Hollywood and Central Eastern Europe

Looking forward to giving a research paper in York tomorrow with my long-time collaborator @havasjulia.bsky.social on East-West relations, popular media, the "Hungarian GoT" Hunyadi, nutty Cold War reprise The Gorge and think pieces which posit Orbán's Hungary as originator of Western illiberalism.

Most people seem to think that "teaching" is the getting up in front of the class and talking part (or maybe any 1-on-1 assistance). Everything else is dismissed as busywork.
But in my 20ish years experience, the stuff highlighted below that you're encouraged to automate is TEACHING.

Disappointing to see Owen Jones invoking spectre of Hungary as what awaits the US. Lazy & entirely false. Orbán isn't the OG, Hungary isn't patient zero. Orbán & his illiberalism were produced in decades-long interactions with, inside, outside & on margins of 'the West' (& the USSR/Russia et al).
