Die @dgsoziologie.bsky.social hat sich übrigens klar gegen die Maßnahme positioniert.

DGS widerspricht Ausschluss israelischer Partnerorganisation

Die Israelische Soziologische Gesellschaft soll aus der International Sociological Association ausgeschlossen werden. Dies stößt auf Widerstand.

Early contender for a defining image of this era.

Aaron Reichlin-Melnick @reichlinmelnick.bsky.social · Apr 30

What an image! Venezuelan men who narrowly avoided being imprisoned by Trump in El Salvador without trial (saved by the Supreme Court) spelled out an SOS to a
@reuters.com camera drone observing the Bluebonnet ICE facility.

11 days ago, buses to the airport were turned around at the last second.

A picture shows 32 men arranging themselves into an SOS on the ground of a prison yard. The ground is bare earth. All the men are wearing red or orange prison jumpsuits.
