Mit Jason Stanley und Tim Snyder verlassen zwei wichtige Forscher zu Faschismus und Autoritarismus die USA für Kanada. Sie wissen, was kommt. Auch @brynntannehill.bsky.social, die schon vor Jahren vor dem warnte, was jetzt geschieht, geht nach Kanada ins Exil. Lest ihr Buch „American Fascism“.
This is like watching all the animals fleeing inland right before a tsunami. They know what's coming. So did Einstein in 1932 when he left.
Doctors Stanley and Snyder are two of the top experts on authoritarianism, and have called it quits.
I'll be joining them in Canada this summer.

This speaks volumes:
Yale professors, Timothy Snyder, a historian of totalitarianism and the author of "On Tyranny," and Jason Stanley, a philosopher and the author of "How Fascism Works", move to Canada.

I don't care what side of the Israel-Palestine conflict your sympathies lie on, snatching up people with a valid student visa for the crime of writing an OpEd is naked fascism and if you don't oppose this you are a threat to this country's most basic values
Video of the international student at Tufts being arrested by "federal authorities" in Massachusetts has been released and it's terrifying.
They're not even uniformed officers. Just secret police thugs in hoodies and masks.

Does the concept of oligarchy clarify the political-economic aims of the second Trump administration? Not at all, our columnist Ross Douthat writes.

How do conspiracy theories spread across digital platforms—and how does their style evolve? A new study by Annett Heft, Xixuan Zhang, and myself in New Media & Society analyzes veiled conspiracism across 4chan, X/Twitter, and far-right partisan media from 2011–2021. 👇

If you're curious how a democracy transitions from a free press to state-run media, this is the kind of step you'd expect to see.
White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt announces that the White House Correspondents' Association will no longer choose the pool reporter.
"Moving forward, the White House press pool will be determined by the White House press team."

🚨BREAKING. From a program officer at the National Science Foundation, a list of keywords that can cause a grant to be pulled. I will be sharing screenshots of these keywords along with a decision tree. Please share widely. This is a crisis for academic freedom & science.
