This is such a great review of Indignity by @lilylynch.bsky.social in @jacobinmagazin.bsky.social - I really enjoyed reading her discussion/critique of the questions around social class, do check it out!
In her new book, Indignity, Albanian political scientist Lea Ypi discovers that online trolls are accusing her grandmother of having been a communist spy during World War II.
To find the truth, she digs deep into her family and country’s archives.

Interesting to read "...the cocktail of heightened geopolitical tension, sudden acts of violence, intensifying ethno-nationalist rhetoric, and irresponsible politicians with large media platforms does warrant elevated concern."

A must-read - whether or not you care about this part of the world. There is also a lesson here for America (and beyond), it's easy to slide into total corruption and impunity, but takes ages, and is really, really hard to exorcise it.
