I’ve spent years researching racism and discrimination, including racism against people racialised as Eastern Europeans.
And, unfortunately, this case only confirms how easily violence and dehumanisation are tolerated when directed at certain groups.

NEW RESEARCH confirms:
Countering far-right messaging by repeating it mainstreams extremist ideas and amplifying extremist terminology cedes the framing of the issues to the right.
(I’ll add that social media “dunking” only serves to spread undesired content.)

I just came across a 2001 text advocating a new classification of human biological races. Given Russia’s ongoing crimes against Ukrainians and various indigenous ppls (eg Crimean Tatars), it is telling that the author is from Moscow. Racist ideas continue to flourish there today.

I’ve been swamped with work lately and missed the fact that Steven Pinker has once again appeared on a podcast openly promoting racist and eugenicist ideas. Absolutely vile — though sadly no surprise.
Sharing in case others missed it too.
