Post di presentazione.
Jacopo Di Miceli, scrivo per Facta, Valigia Blu e Il Fatto Quotidiano, occupandomi di complottismo, estremismo di destra e politica americana. Curo l'Osservatorio sul complottismo(@sulcomplottismo.bsky.social), progetto di divulgazione e di analisi sulle teorie del complotto.

Libero di Mario Sechi riporta e distorce così, con un ghigno violento, la notizia dei maltrattamenti sadici agli attivisti (si veda la testimonianza di Saverio Tommasi) e omette le umiliazioni e le botte inflitte a Greta Thunberg.

I’m looking for data on political violence in Europe. A Europol report suggests that left-wing terrorism is more prevalent, but I find the methodology questionable, since in the past attacks on 5G antennas, which are typically conspiracist, were counted as left-wing. Anyone have insights?

La copertura del Post sulla politica USA mi sembra assurdamente indulgente verso l'amministrazione Trump e minimizzante il pericolo. Chi ha seguito il live tweeting di @atrupar.com ha sentito molto più di banale propaganda, ma la richiesta di sottomissione dell'esercito alla volontà del presidente.

A neo-fascist publisher has just released Martin Sellner’s book on remigration in Italian, with a preface by Francesco Borgonovo, well-known journalist for the right-wing daily "La Verità" and frequent TV talk show guest. Last Thursday, Borgonovo even promoted Sellner’s book on air.

1/ La Lega che tifa remigrazione vuole bandire “antifa” come Trump.
Ma la costituzione antifascista vieta entrambe le cose.

1/ The Dutch parliament has approved a far-right motion calling on the government to designate “Antifa” as a terrorist organization (with the support of VVD, center-right party). Let’s remember: “Antifa” does NOT exist! We are heading toward collective paranoid madness.

Il processo di martirizzazione di Kirk sarà una licenza per la radicalizzazione. Qualcuno lo immagina come l’equivalente di un nuovo incendio al Reichstag.

I think Charlie Kirk and TPUSA mainly reflected rather than shaped the broader right-wing movement in the U.S., as I also argued in this piece from last year, comparing his 2024 to his 2018 visit to the campus of my university.

The far right is looking very different to how it did a few years ago. They’re less tied to traditional conservative organizations

2/ But Kirk was not doing politics “the right way,” just like none of those who incited the mob to storm the Capitol. One can condemn political assassination while at the same time condemning the ideas of the person who was unjustly targeted.

1/ How can we explain Ezra Klein’s excessive generosity toward Charlie Kirk’s political legacy? Perhaps only by the desire to counterbalance the dishonest and distorted image that the far right is building of the left with a more “reasonable” one, open to dialogue with fascist ideas.

My main observation from the last few hours of monitoring US social media is that Democrats are universally denouncing political violence and calling for calm while MAGA are escalating language and openly lusting for retribution against broad categories of people they identity as their enemies.

Oltre all'orrore quotidiano dalle guerre, solo oggi ho visto - senza volerlo - il video di una povera ragazza ucraina accoltellata su un treno e il video dell'assassinio di Charlie Kirk, entrambi terrificanti. Siamo una società drogata di contenuti, incapace di un rapporto sano con le notizie.

1/ There has been a second apparent drone attack on a Gaza-bound vessel off Tunisia in two days. This time the munition has survived, and can be identified as a US-made thermite hand grenade, highly likely dropped by a hovering drone. ⬇️

NEW — Footage of the reported drone attack of the "Alma" ship on the Sumud Gaza aid flotilla.

The boat was sailing under the British flag. Fire damage seen in this video.

Comes after the "Family" was attacked yesterday in Tunisian waters.

Fire since extinguished. Crew safe.

Having seen video of many, many drone strikes in Ukraine, this definitely isn't a drone landing on a target. However, it's very consistent with a hovering drone dropping a payload of thermite, which is a tactic that the Ukrainians pioneered. bsky.app/profile/mili...

Tommy Robinson is a far-right extremist with multiple convictions who has for years, in alliance with hooligans and neo-fascists, incited racist riots in England. The fact that the Lega group leader in the Lombardy Council supports such a violent figure is a disgrace that must be called out.

1/ @davidpuente.it e Marianna Satta hanno fatto un lavoro OSINT eccezionale nel reperire le prove dell'esistenza del Nutella Cafè a Gaza. Un lavoro che, però, per come è stato presentato, sta involontariamente rinforzando il negazionismo di Gazawood sui canali mainstream italiani.

1/ How can Gaza’s famine coexist with “Nutella cafés”? According to denialist propaganda, it’s impossible—in fact, it’s presented as proof that food is plentiful and deaths from hunger are staged. Yet the history of famines shows that hunger does not affect all social classes in the same way.

1/ While famine in the Gaza Strip reaches the point of no return, the Israeli government’s propaganda keeps denying reality, clinging to the discredited Pallywood conspiracy theory. I cover it on @facta.news , link at the end of the thread.

Per @facta.news ho scritto di come la propaganda israeliana neghi la fame di Gaza, accusando - attraverso strategie social e interferenze nelle opinioni pubbliche - i palestinesi di essere attori in un set allestito da Hamas. In una parola: Pallywood (o Gazawood).

1/ A study from the University of Ottawa shows that, contrary to age-related stereotypes, it is young people under 35 who are the most likely to believe in conspiracy theories.

Giorgia Meloni’s party, Brothers of Italy, uses AI memes to blandly push authoritarian messages: “Anyone who disagrees with us is a traitor and a communist”.
