Don’t always agree with @peterbeinart.bsky.social but it’s lazy to only engage ideas you agree with. So far book has changed my thinking on some aspects.

Wonderfully engaging conversation tonight with Anne Berg on her book Empire of Rags and Bones. Throughly enjoyed being in discussion with Anne on her scholarship and new paradigms to understand waste and genocide.

Started reading this in early December and other books for class and life got in the way. Just finished. A fascinating, excellent book. I am excited to be in conversation with Anne Berg on 5 March on Zoom. Join us here: cwbpgh.org/event/empire...

Not everyone is a Nazi: however, some members of this admin have studied the playbook.

Kostyuchenko’s book is simply one of the best on modern Russia. I’m halfway through and cannot put it down nor stop filling it with annotations.
