The attempts by Western institutions to normalise Israel since the ceasefire are disgusting and absurd. First, Israel has not stopped killing Palestinians, and by all accounts is eager to do more of it.

Unfortunately, I'm not surprised. They've always had that 'profits over people' vibe.

Harvard has set an example for other higher-ed institutions - rejecting an unlawful and ham-handed attempt to stifle academic freedom, while taking steps to make sure students can benefit from an environment of intellectual inquiry, rigorous debate and mutual respect. Let’s hope others follow suit.

NEW: Elon Musk’s X has suspended accounts of Turkish opposition groups, suppressing footage of anti-government protests. So, best we share all the footage we can here! This was last night’s massive demo against Erdogan’s government, which follows the arrest of his rival Ekrem İmamoğlu. 🇹🇷 #Turkey

In partnership with @freedom.press, WIRED will make all of its FOIA-based reporting free to access for anyone. Public records should be public, and I hope to see more outlets follow suit: freedom.press/issues/wired...

As the administration does its best to hide public records from the public, Wired magazine is stepping up to help stem the secrecy

The answer = trees. “These trees will slow down the water on the way to the river... The rain will spend a few days dripping off the leaves, and the roots of the trees will break up the soil, helping the water to penetrate into the aquifer rather than going straight down the hill” @philsturgeon.com

Each day of Donald Trump’s second term is “its own fresh hell,” David Remnick writes, “bringing ever more outrageous news from an autocrat who revels in his contempt for the government he leads, for the foreign allies who deserve our support, and for the Constitution he is sworn to uphold.”

X is blocking links to @signal.org, now widely used to discuss / report on Washington. Same technique (flagging as 'potentially harmful') that X has used to block / throttle Bluesky, Instagram, NYT, Reuters & Substack. When Twitter derailed links to Hunter Biden story, Musk called it "tyranny."
Link to Signal blocked by X.

A me colpisce tanto l'apparente apatia collettiva europea, con poche eccezioni di vera mobilitazione sociale. Forse è la complessità delle sfide attuali che ci fa sentire impotenti o forse c'è bisogno per la maggioranza di noi di vederlo più da vicino per farci in un qualche modo reagire.

La tua sensazione é che in Europa le persone se ne stiano rendendo veramente conto?
