This is TPUSA‘s political project in action - trying to get professors they deem liberal or left-leaning fired & harassed. @mark-bray.bsky.social teaches about the history of anti-fascism - and has had to relocate to Europe as threats mounted after TPUSA targeted him.

Am Fall Brosius-Gersdorf hat die extreme Rechte getestet, wie gehorsam die Konservativen sind. Ab heute steht fest: Sie hören bedingungslos, das Schreckgespenst "AfD-Umfragewerte" diktiert damit die Politik. Ein unterschätzter Schritt im Weg in den Autoritarismus.

Im Herbst stelle ich meine aktuelle Forschung zum evangelikalen Kino auf der Jahrestagung der Gesellschaft für Medienwissenschaft vor. Meine Vorfreude hält sich in Grenzen, denn das Thema ist vor dem Hintergrund der aktuellen Entwicklungen in den USA extrem deprimierend.

For a couple of days every third post I’m being served on FB is AI-generated Elon the family man, coming from what seems to be bot profiles that want to sell me their private pictures. Is there a good explanation for this that somebody wants to share with me?

MICKEY 17 left me cold in a similar manner every Terry Gilliam movie released after BRAZIL did. I could appreciate the effort that went into the production design but it just wasn’t for me.

Felix Brinker und ich haben heute auf dem 38. Film- und medienwissenschaftlichen Kolloquium #FFK38 an der @hhu.de über rechte Metapolitik im US-Indiefilm gesprochen. Wir beobachten eine seit 2015 wachsende Welle von Genrefilmen, die politisch rechte Diskurse narrativeren und normalisieren.

Whoever produced the #Inauguration telecast took more than just a few cues from the Riefenstahl playbook. E.g. those ceiling shots didn’t happen by accident.
