Incredibly powerful investigation in Dutch newspaper NRC: Seven of the world’s leading genocide scholars — including renowned Holocaust experts — describe Israel’s actions in Gaza as genocidal.

And according to them, nearly all of their peers agree.

Genocide is not just another war crime. It’s the “crime of crimes” — the deliberate attempt to destroy a people.

That’s what’s happening in Gaza, say the world’s top genocide experts.

5. Never, ever normalize extremists. Never legitimize actors who reject the basis rules of democracy — not for votes, not for “balance.” Build a firewall around the enemies of democracy.

4. Get things done: when governments fail to deliver, people become more open to authoritarian alternatives. Good governance is democratic defense.

Fascinating chart from @rutgerbregman.com‘s new book about moral ambition. It seems many of the rich have an inkling that they make money doing things that provide no benefit to society.

Also, in this media era that’s immersing society in bullshit news, the journalism number is notable.

How to stop authoritarian takeovers, 6 simple lessons from history:

1. Build a broad pro-democracy coalition. No purity politics. Learn to work with people who annoy you. You can go back to dunking on them after democracy is safe.

Yes, this is fascism.

For years, historians and experts were cautious about using the f-word to describe today's events. But that hesitation is gone now. 🧵

GFG ran #Whyalla’s steelworks into the ground. The SA Govt has said it’ll take $3B to upgrade the plant. That’s a lot more than the $1.4B @albomp.bsky.social has committed to transform the steelworks. Getting the Feds up to the mark will be a top priority for me if returned to Senate #auspol

Grace Tame is a brilliant, strategic activist. Like Trump & Murdoch, she understands the power of attention. The difference is she uses hers for good, not evil. My latest in Nine Media. www.smh.com.au/national/tam...
Tame Grace? Good luck with that. I delight in her brave belligerence
As a lifelong feminist, witnessing the blunt and precise advocacy of women like Grace Tame fills me with joy.

Borrowed slogans, deepfake consultants, and billionaire-backed astroturfing. The 2025 election is shaping up to be a circus of misinformation. Peter Dutton’s new love for whales? Just another plot twist. Follow the money. #AusPol #Election2025
