Vini, armi, fondi europei, oligarchi russi L'Italia è un bengodi per Putin non solo per ideologie vetuste che impediscono alla sinistra di stare dalla parte degli aggrediti, ma anche e soprattutto per i fiumi di €€€ che ancora scorrono da e per la Russia Leggete: irpimedia.irpi.eu/sanctionsgam...

This short 11' video by always excellent analyst @anderspucknielsen.dk is the clearest explanation I've seen of the *real* threats Europe faces by Russia Spoiler: this is NOT a progressive/conservative matter of opinion, it's about the survival of our democracies www.youtube.com/watch?v=HwnB...

Un aereo dell’amministrazione governativa russa, targa RA-96018, è decollato da Mosca, per San Pietroburgo e poi da lì è atterrato segretamente all'aeroporto JFK di New York il 25 giugno alle 15:27 ora locale. Poche ore dopo è atterrato a Washington (20:56 locali)

Tim Snyder: Today no kings, tomorrow freedom. There is a better America out there. There is a better America underneath. There is a better America that we can see. There is a better America that we can make. History is in our hands.

The appallingly weak response to authoritarism shows how much Westerners of European descent forgot the true meaning of "Resistance" We need to listen to and learn from all those world activists who never ever stopped fighting For instance, Aishe Setimuratova - RIP www.youtube.com/watch?v=WpdE...

Watching on the news a country threatened with military invasion by an authoritarian government, and am glad I'm here in Taiwan instead. #FightICE

una cosa non si è detta abbastanza del raid che ha azzoppato l'aviazione strategica russa: la Russia di oggi non ha più la capacità tecnologica di costruire in serie aerei di trenta anni fa. Questo per chi continua da noi a straparlare di superpotenza russa. E' ormai uno stato fallito.

As an indication of the upside-down we are now living in, a Ukrainian friend who lives in Kyiv under the daily threat of aerial bombardment reached out to me today: “Are you doing OK? I’ve been following the news about American universities and it sounds bad.” 🙃

Two weeks ago in Vienna the @renner-institut.at awarded me with the Bruno Kreisky Prize for political writing, in the section: lifetime achievement Here's the link to my keynote speech (in English): www.youtube.com/watch?v=2p0E...

The Israeli Defence Force has turned into a rogue army and we, Europe, the continent of drmocracy and "values", are doing nothing to stop it An orthopedician's testimony into children's wounds in Gaza, 28 minutes, from @thisamericanlife.org www.thisamericanlife.org/859/chaos-gr...

People snatched in the streets by masked thugs, heart wrenching screams, nightmare scenes Resisting bystanders are mostly only other dark skinned people The last 100 days proved this once for all (but no surprise, if you know US history): the majority of white Americans is ok with selective fascism

@yarynagrusha.bsky.social's touching words remind me that being a writer need not be (as it too often is) a self-absorbed and basicallly irrelevant job, but can weave webs of mutual connections, both personal & collective, in a word: human Thank you/grazie/dyakuyu www.instagram.com/p/DJixFNZtaeA/

Judging by Medvedev's low key, undestated response, the joint visit to Kyiv by the leaders of F, D, UK & PL was a truly resounding success ("The Pangender Arses" sounds like a non-binary punk band)

Yesterday May 9th, Europe Day, I was invited by the European School @ Munich to give a speech to the students about "European values" It's an expression I am very skeptical about, and I told them why You can read the whole speech on my substack at this link: open.substack.com/pub/francesc...

80 anni di 25 Aprile oggi su MicroMega questo brano tratto da "Piedi Freddi" www.micromega.net/piedi-freddi...

As a European, this US triumph of white suprematist-eugenicist-oligarchic cruelty feels like a taste of what Germany could be hadn't it decisively repudiated Nazism nor taught its horrors in school for years Plus Nazism lasted only 13 years, while US structural politics of cruelty are centuries old

'Progressisti' che davanti a foto di donne riverse sui corpi del figli a Gaza provano pietà e indignazione ma davanti alla stessa foto da Sumy sanno solo dire "eh l'allargamento della NATO" Speculare tra alcuni 'liberali' L'oscena solidarietà/empatia selettiva ci porterà all'inferno come 90 anni fa

Attacco del criminale Putin a Sumy, ecco il commento del suo sodale Trump (Krasnov): "orribile, mi hanno detto sia stato un errore"

Meanwhile in Russia: head of RT Margarita Simonyan described an intent to partition Ukraine, which sounded eerily similar to the plan mentioned by General Keith Kellogg in his controversial interview. She also predicted Trump will run for a third term. www.youtube.com/watch?v=SISO...

Insider traders made 300 Billion$ in profits thanks to the tariff yoyo madness (Bloomberg estimate) I hope this finally brings home how media pundits discussing "Trump's strategy" are wasting our time DT is simply a mafia boss whose only goal is his gang's profit & lawless power the means Period

This is so wrong on so many counts

Netanyahu's government has turned Israel into a full-blown rogue state If we want to describe ourselves as the continent of democracy and rule of law, we Europeans must at long last stop pretending that this isn't so zeteo.com/p/point-blan...

Vienna, 6 May one day before being honored with the Bruno Kreisky Prize by @rennerinstitut.bsky.social, the Italian Cultural Institute #Vienna will host a retrospective of my work Heartfelt thanks to both iicvienna.esteri.it/de/gli_event... (German) iicvienna.esteri.it/it/gli_event... (Italiano)

The work of Marci Shore and Tim Snyder has informed my understanding of Western Europe deep relationship with (and ignorance) of Ukraine. I would have not been able to write my latest book without it Listening to her anguished words is heartbreaking and terrifying www.youtube.com/watch?v=noJ4...

Closely inspecting the list of tariffs/countries posted by the White House, Trump did not put tariffs on Russia. Ukraine's tariff is 10%, the EU's is 20%, and every American ally is on the list. But not Russia.

Senator Booker's feat has deep, ancient roots: the noble African American political tradition of putting their own body on the line and thereby leading every single fight for democracy and justice in the USA, since slavery's abolition For more context watch this: www.youtube.com/watch?v=cZi_...

#ElleKappa in versione Sergio Tofano su #Repubblica

3 years ago Bucha was liberated from Russian occupiers Many reporters who arrived on the scene still suffer from PTSD because of what they saw The man who was yelled at by JDV to be 'thankful' looked like this as he walked around Bucha We in the West still don't grasp what Ukraine is going through

L'aggressione russa all'Ucraina non è solo una guerra contro la democrazia ma soprattutto contro la riconversione energetica dell'EU Con la nuova alleanza antiEU tra Putin e il frontman degli idrocarburi USA Trump,questo articolo è forse ancora più rilevante di quando è stato scritto 2 anni fa

Netanyahu is a war criminal and he deserves a tribunal for what he has done and is still doing in Gaza On the other hand these Gazawi protesters against Hamas are heroes as they are risking terrible retaliations (look up what Hamas did to members of its opposition) taz.de/Anti-Hamas-P...
