#APSA2025 in Vancouver was a fine event but we need to rethink organizing political science conferences in Canada. It puts additional barriers for non-U.S. citizens and perpetuates inequalities in the field. No wonder many international students on F1 visas could not attend.

“Dead to Rights” A Short Review of The New Chinese Movie @APSAAnnualMtg #APSA2025 #China #Chinese #XiJinping #Nanjing open.substack.com/pub/drwjk/p/...

'Dead to Rights' movie now showing around Los Angeles and San Francisco. Justice had to be done! And I hope a future Chinese War Crimes Tribunal will punish Israel and the US for Gaza, like they punished Japanese Generals. The UN will never do it! #GazaGenocide

a very powerful, well done film - Dead to Rights the Chinese movie

Too bad this will step on the Great Chinese movie, Dead to Rights. Everyone should see it.

What a powerful and truth telling film, right? The Chinese can make Great Movies, like Dead to Rights. Next we need a movie like that on Gaza. #GazaGenocide

Kil**ngs in #Gaza have surpassed those in Dachau. American soldiers Liberated that Death Camp in 1945. No such luck for the #Palestinians Compare Gaza v Death Camps from WWII pics: How could this happen? Vid has answer. #genocide

Always new ways to cause suffering.

This was Biden's big failure. We did our part, the voters, we gave the Dems four full years to close the door on autocracy, they naively thought they could do it by demonstrating how nice it was to have a democracy. Imagine FDR with a similar response to the attack on Pearl Harbor.

I’m past the point where I’m willing to just say it was naive. The Democratic Party is complicit in this failure.

She's a disgusting abomination! Look at what the Democratic Party has done to our country! They alienated the Working Class with Globalization enabling Trump's election in 2016 + by excluding Sanders. Harris's Happy Campaign helped Trump in 2024. Owned by Billionaire Donors. Progressives - get out!

No! Its all one. Look at what the Democratic Party has done to our country! They alienated the Working Class with Globalization enabling Trump's election in 2016 + by excluding Sanders. Harris's Happy Campaign helped Trump in 2024. Its owned by Billionaire Donors. Progressives - get out!
