No bomb should’ve ever dropped on a single civilian, a single child.

If this is the end of them I’m glad.

But the loss is so so immense and the future so uncertain.

What does “peace” mean when it sits atop a genocide? What peace when the genocider dictates its terms?

Pretty accurate, no?

"Likt kulturminister Parisa Liljestrand (M) flydde Ashkan som barn till Sverige från Iran. Nu jobbar han på Volvo – eller jobbade. Ashkan sitter inlåst på Migrationsverkets förvar för att utvisas från det enda land han har, till ett land han sist såg som elvaåring."

Across large-N surveys and original data, we find:
➡️ Whites in places with more Latino growth are more supportive of legal abortion.
➡️ This effect is absent among non-Whites.
➡️ It’s driven exclusively by Whites higher in prejudice.

The Swedish UPPSALA DECLARATION now has 2,557 signatories. The EUROPEAN DECLARATION is catching up with 2,458 from EU/EEA/UK/CH. All signatories refuse to collaborate with Israeli institutions complicit in illegal occupation, apartheid, genocide, and other violations of international law.

They wouldn’t and everyone knows it.

Literally what my book is about. The ultimate cost of borders is the nation itself.

So Italy and Spain are sending war ships to protect its citizens from drones from its “friend” Israel?

There's a persistent impression about the migration debate in the UK that one side - that of migration sceptics - cares a lot more.

I've got a nagging feeling that's not only untrue but having a disastrous effect.

Under current law, the president has too much power to use the military for law enforcement at home. Our report details the loopholes and ambiguities in the Posse Comitatus Act and provides a bipartisan path to strengthening the law. bit.ly/3NaSobU

Step back, have a little perspective. This is a better headline: "University turns Judith Butler over to the police for thought crime"

Au contraire, @economist.com.

Robotaxis don’t make for liveable cities. Carfree zones do.

Whoever is running dude’s messaging deserves a raise.

Radical right accommodation really does not work.

Alan Kurdi dog för 10 år sedan och Europa blev aldrig bättre.
Han blev inte början på någon ny solidaritet utan ett monument över ett iskallt hjärta.

Frontex, EU:s gränsbyrå, blev arvet.
Ingen livräddare utan en dödspatrull i kostym med drönare, värmekameror och avtal med diktaturer.

Fear of crime: an unholy alliance between politicians that need a cudgel, local news that needs clicks, social media's ability to share viral anecdotal crime stories, police that need justification to exist, and the fact that police/surveillance tech is a multi-billion dollar industry, and racism.

A welcome, albeit incredibly late statement from the European Sociological Ass.

Will the ESA suspend the collaboration with the Israeli institutions until the end of the war, as it did with Russia?

If I was a politician looking to protect my city/state from federal political surveillance and policing, one of my FIRST steps would be to start canceling Flock contracts ASAP.

I'm a real live historian of policing, and I ended up writing a thread about this current moment..specifically what it signals that the NYPD are lessening the age and education requirements for police in order to get a big scary recruitment class. 🧵
