🧵 Yesterday I shared my views on how disordered discourse has captured the US state and the risk of that happening elsewhere, but I don’t want to leave you hanging without proposing a solution.
What we’re witnessing in America is what happens when disordered discourse captures a political party, then the state itself. The Republican Party was the first to fall - abandoning truth for conspiracy, ideology for grievance, and policy for performative outrage.

These days I have a new feeling re. Europe, not what it's now but what it c/should be
Maybe it's what Italians felt re. a unified nation in Risorgimento, or partisans re. fascism's defeat in the Resistenza:
something we can at last make real only if we fight for it
And if we don't, all will be lost

I couldn't find a #FeministIR starter pack, so I took a first rather random stab at it. As I am bound to have missed relevant people (still struggling with the platform), so please let me know if you would like to be added. Apologies in advance.
