<<When We Are All Enemies of the State>>
A recently discovered 1974 speech by Stuart Hall on Walter Rodney—and why fascists fear ideas.
In Germany, I developed a slight obsession with political stickers – and especially the unhinged pro-Israel stickers from the German left's creepy philosemitic neocons, the "anti-Germans" (the most German Germans). For @thediasporist.bsky.social, I wrote up some of the wildest examples

White supremacy = this.
Genocide = this.
NO to this! www.hsu-hh.de/ztb/tagungsp...
What is to be expected from the country that let Annalena Baerbock get away with her "Feminist" (Genocidal) Foreign Policy and then awarded her with a top UN job?
Furthermore, where is the response/resistance from German feminists in academia to this event and, more broadly, to the militarization?
My tweet, Oct 7 2023: This is a call for expulsion/genocide. Silence in the face of this threat amounts to green light Quoted tweet: Barak Ravid @BarakRavid · Oct 7, 2023 BREAKING: Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu called on Palestinian civilians in Gaza to “leave now” because the Israeli military is going to “turn all Hamas hiding places into rubble” 8:39 PM · Oct 7, 2023 ·
Clear from day one, that if left unchecked, this Israeli government will not stop at anything

Auch das Cover des Stern steht nun im Zentrum einer unsäglichen Debatte. Mein Gastbeitrag dazu aus der heutigen FAZ ohne Paywall:
"By celebrating illegibility and artistic survival under oppressive systems, inarticulation can pose as encryption."
