Vassy: Do you think that that hardcore, smaller group of actual separatists will accept whatever happens on the 19th? Jason Kenney: They're pre-positioning that this will be rigged because that's the script they've learned from MAGA, who inspires them.

It remains amazing to me that nationalization -- which would've been mocked mercilessly when I started my professional career in 1999 -- is now treated as a legitimate policy option in Ottawa. It might not happen, but that it's even being taken seriously shows how much things have changed.

2024 election marked the end of a cycle of de-democratization by Modi's BJP. India’s opposition is back as a force to be reckoned with. Not just a reinvigorated party system but the creativity of social movements from below. Must read by the great political scientist Christoph Jaffrelot

Modi has lost it. "The govt has responded by massively increasing the security presence in the capital. Around thirty thousand police and paramilitary personnel have been deployed, internet services have been disrupted, trains to Delhi have been cancelled, metro stations and roads have been closed."

We are allowed to disagree. To me, this is like saying one shouldn't have gone to Vichy France to support partisans because it was a fascist regime. Many did go, just as they went to Spain to fight fascism

There is the boycott of US goods and spending money on holiday. Supporting resistance is different. The ANC wanted a complete boycott of South Africa but this did not include individuals travelling to South Africa in order to learn about apartheid

This is excellent publicity for New York's mayor. As long as the all-or-nothing demagogues on both sides of Israel-Palestine -- those who make a shared future for the great mass of sane Arabs and Jews impossible -- feel betrayed by Mamdani then de facto, the man is about where he ought to be.
