That night at #KilnTheatre was special. Some trusted friends even told me that the event should be turned into a pamphlet. If you weren’t there, here’s the recording of the #intelligencesquared night in two parts. open.spotify.com/episode/4m1s...

New arrivals are always welcomed. No such thing as coming late. We need each other, we need “us” urgently. Luckily, now is an endless thing.
Just discovered this amazing #EceTemelkuran on an Intelligence Squared podcast. "How to Lose Your Country Part I" is here: podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/i... Happy to follow her in Bluesky. Her POV is the broadest, deepest, and most realistic assessment of where we're at.

@ecetemelkuran.bsky.social found the perfect way to describe this (below). All these terms are designed to give the sense that there is no such thing as right and wrong.

“Ece Temelkuran is a brilliant thinker, and her work here is as conceptually illuminating as it is beautifully written ... In this time of rampant fascism, …Nation of Strangers is both a call and a comfort, a book that made me feel so much less alone”

It was a special #howtoloseacountry night at #KilnTheater in #London . We cried, laughed and most importantly felt not so alone anymore. Many thanks to everyone who was there and special thanks to the brilliant #intelligencesquared and @canongate team.

Ece Temelkuran is schrijfster en journaliste. Na de mislukte staatsgreep in 2014 verliet ze Turkije en keerde niet meer terug.
In 'Verloren land' omschrijft ze hoe een democratie in zeven stappen tot een dictatuur omgevormd werd.

If you want to understand what Ece Temelkuran means by the Radical-male, I urge all to read her important book: Together. 10 Choices for a Better Now.

I've read a lot of commentary about this harangue, but alarming for most women is the blatant misogyny, not just a hatred of "woke" - this is the backlash of the patriarchy on full display, what journalist Ece Temelkuran calls the rise of the Radical Male.

The US military has long been an engine of social change. Hegseth's approach runs counter to that
The U.S. military has historically been an engine for cultural and social change in America. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth’s vision for the armed forces he leads runs counter to that.

'paralysing dissident masses through court cases is far easier when the leader can call people terrorists, and when members of society are too polarised to support each other in the name of equality before the law.'

Reading Together by @ecetemelkuran.bsky.social

I'm struck by this bit- about how even in accepting refugees people would rather see a thing to help than a whole person with a life and who might be able to help others... thread coming... I've put the transcript in the alt text
