“Deporting” someone is sending them back to their country where they are free to live as citizens.

What that asshole is doing is NOT deportation.

It’s kidnapping and human trafficking. It’s illegally sending people to USA-funded off shore concentration camps.

Today on the US fascism escalation… a PhD student being kidnapped by the State because of her political opinions.
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.

Last week we held our workshop on #Polarization –Conceptualization and Methodological Approaches. It was a blast, bringing together brilliant and highly motivated minds! 🤓

Be stolen during an international trip brings the ambiguous feeling of frustration for my lost items and bureaucracy for the consequences of those, but relief that at least phone, id documents, and laptop (and myself, of course!) are safe 😅

We keep saying that political polarisation is not always bad... But when it becomes a problem? A few weeks ago, we published this at Information, Communication and Society, where we define destructive polarisation and identify its symptoms in online communication:

We are very thrilled to host you, and ready for a thought-provoking discussion on conceptualizing #polarization! 🤓
I have the luck to, while visiting Germany for a Fellowship at the @weizenbauminstitut.bsky.social, catch a short train ride and join CAIS + @scide.bsky.social for a full two-day workshop about Political Polarisation. And here is the topic of my 10-minute provocation:

Reasons to be angry about the Social Media Ban for Children bill in Australia include all the arguments scholars have pointed out, PLUS the added heartbreak of finding yourself in agreement with Elon Musk... sadness

Only by being in a different place do we start to think so differently about our objects of analysis... Berlin has given me many new ways of looking at political polarisation and deep disagreements 👀

The best thing I've done for my mental health in years has been to start spending two hours a day working from my local library. Those places have healing energy.

agora vamo falar uma coisa: o vereador mais votado do brasil tem como pauta única ser transfóbico, e a vereadora de esquerda mais votada do brasil é uma mulher trans. ja passou da hora de entenderem que a luta trans nao é "identitária" e sim âmbito protagonista da política brasileira em 2024
