This Jewish American shot two Israelis - because he thought they were Palestinians. The victims then thought they'd been attacked by an Arab, and posted; "DEATH TO ARABS". It seems absurd, but exposes the ignored evil of anti-Palestinian racism 👇 www.owenjones.news/p/he-shot-tw...

Timothy Snyder is an expert of modern authoritarianism.
A quote from an article by Timothy Snyder titled "What Does It Mean That Donald Trump Is a Fascist?" published in The New Yorker. The quote reads: "It is predictable ... that he will give free rein to the oligarchs who, he knows, will continue to generate the social and digital bases of a politics of us and them. It is predictable that, in returning to power, he will seek to change the system so that he can remain in power until death. It is predictable that he will use deportations to divide us, to accustom us to violence, and to make accomplices of us. It is predictable that he will create a cult out of the martyrs of January 6th. It is predictable that he will cooperate with similarly minded rulers abroad."
