As someone who regularly consumes more mainstream media, it is baffling that this case has not received more attention.
PBS, NPR, BBC rarely if ever speak on the Prairieland case.

“the neoliberal offloading of the socially undesirable…this deal covers up years of horrendous policies by both states…

The far-right Sweden Democrats (whose roots are in the country’s neo-Nazi movement) have scapegoated these population.” ~ Daniel R. Jarosak @drjarosak.bsky.social

Every Flag Is Black in a Fire Louise Michel, André Breton, Jean Genet, and others reflect on the meaning of the black flag, the anarchist standard of rebellion and negation.

🏴 "But black is also beautiful. It is a color of determination, of resolve, of strength, a color by which all others are clarified and defined."
- Howard J. Ehrlich

Attrition is not defeat: why Ukraine is not “losing” the war Numerous commentators continue to believe that some sort of Ukrainian defeat is inevitable. This is largely the result of calculations that privilege Russia as the larger side in its invasion. Despite...

So glad we had Joshua Kroeker rebuke a recent @foreignaffairs.com article titled "Ukraine is losing the war". Joshua's perspective shows otherwise via @neweasterneurope.eu

When I brought up joining a book club, my friend said it might be hard to get other people interested in the books I read.

What could they mean?!?!?!

Of course, it is also hard to ignore the portrayal of the Baltics in the early stages of the book. The author portrays the three countries as largely Nazi collaborators and describes them solely through the eyes of the Soviets.

One interesting theme was the portrayal of Georgi Zhukov. Normally shown simply as the daring and heroic hero of the Eastern Front, Salisbury instead portrays him as a uncompromising, over bearing butcher who will go off on his own subordinates.

Yesterday I finished the 900 Days by Harrison Salisbury. A gripping and insightful look at the Seige of Leningrad, Salisbury does a good job of describing high-level and personal stories. Though, it can get a tad too 'in the weeds. 🧵

As another International Women's Day is celebrated, it is hard to think of all the ways in which women have fought for freedom and rights, without thinking about all the disproportionate suffering they still face. This is especially true in areas of war (🇺🇦, 🇵🇸, 🇨🇩, 🇸🇩, 🇭🇹, Iran)

Study: Youth find LGBTIQ+ community in Estonia most hated of all minorities The LGBTIQ+ community is seen as the most hated target in the context of political violence, according to Estonia's youth, a recent study found.

An illuminating piece from @errnews.bsky.social outlining how the LGBTQ community in 🇪🇪 is most at risk of extremist hatred. The piece also examines the shortcomings of education, but also how youth want to change this.

Bruh. It's probably easier to pilot a submarine without radar than it is to navigate the George Washington Memorial Parkway at night.

If they are hitting water infrastructure in Iran, that’s a crime against humanity on an enormous scale. I planned to publish something on Iran’s water crisis this week but it obviously got bumped. Iran was already in a critical state pre war, destroying water infrastructure will kill innocent people

W nocy z 1 na 2 marca 1953 roku śmieć Stalin dostał wylewu do mózgu, wskutek czego 5 marca zmarł. Do dziś nadal istnieje jego kult , a fani systemów totalitarnych spod znaku sierpa i młota dokonują niesamowitej gimnastyki intelektualnej, żeby usprawiedliwić albo zminimalizować zbrodnie tego potwora.

Really good interview from Joe Kassabian from 2019 that outlines the then issues with the 🇺🇦 military and outlines how the far-right operated at the time. Despite its age, its still a fantastic and at times humorous listen

A surprise gift from my friend!!
IDK's new tape e.t.d.s is one of my favorite releases so far this year.
Can't believe how good it sounds on vinyl, much better than on Spotify.

The Road to Prairieland The crackdown on anti-ICE activists in Texas reflects a pattern of intensifying repression all around the country.

Do not fucking skeet “this is a distraction from the Epstein files.” The US just murdered 60 kids and the loss of their lives is not a “distraction.”
