Do y'all people think brown people can't read or too dumb to notice these things?

How very typical white woman to swan in on a region she's not native to and completely erase the indigenous experts she borrowed heavily from.

And of course we know why: "jihadi terrorism" is on a massive decline here, and ol' Julie desperately needs to stay relevant. bsky.app/profile/muni...

PS: I know Julie has been reaching out to people privately, urging them to help share and repost her article widely, no doubt in retaliation to my complaints and obscure my work.

Hey Julie, it won't change the fact that I was here first and my analysis will always be original.

You'll have to forgive my skepticism that Julie somehow is also keeping tabs on teenage violence in Bangkok, when we all know her work has largely been focused on JI in Indonesia and Philippines.

You don't even go here, Julie, but it's rich of you trying to erase the labour of indigenous experts.

Might I also add that AKSHULLY many people had forgotten about Bangkok Siam Paragon Mall attack and I brought it up in my analysis. I've been keeping it on the backburner because I knew something similar was going to happen again.

I have a lot to say about this parachutist behaviour: bsky.app/profile/muni...

After the Ulu Tiram attack last year, Julie offered me co-authorship to write a Brief together for Soufan Group. Obviously to get me to share my analysis with her. Predictably, she did a 180 degrees after that and said no, sorry, it's not working out.

PS: Her Ulu Tiram piece is also inaccurate.

The reason I'm trotting all these out is because Julie blocked me on LinkedIn and Bsky, and seems to think this would silence me. No, it won't.

This isn't the first time Julie did something like this either. Ulu Tiram rings a bell, Julie?

Might I remind all of you that Dr Julie Chernov Hwang's bread and butter has always been the orientalist jihadism in the region. The suddent swing to so-called far right and memetic violence in Southeast Asia overnight speaks volume. The least you could do is give a line of attribution. Disgraceful.

She also claimed that "it was obvious to anyone who is in our field". Actually, no Julie, it wasn't. Before SMAN Jakarta attack, many people said I was delusional for linking Siam Paragon with BU School, or even suggesting Columbine Effect in the first place.

She claimed that she had spoken directly with the Bangkok police herself, but did not clarify if this was before or after reading my work. This is easily verifiable: do you think I don't have police contacts in the region myself, Julie?

sucks for us to be starting the new year with a cold
