Ben Shapiro probably does not know enough history to even know this, but the way he is talking about Muslims as a nation within the nation who can never be integrated is almost verbatim what European nationalists said about Jews in the late 19th and early 20th centuries.
Another fun addition in the basement. It was a fantastic exhibition in Hamburg, too 🙂
Proud of my students for their perseverance today @auschwitzmemorial.bsky.social I remain convinced that education is the best way to combat the pervasive effects of national chauvinism and racism. May they share their experiences at this place for the rest of their lives.
Wie ich kürzlich in der "WELT" lesen musste, sind nicht die gewaltigen Rassist:innen in Belfast Schuld an den pogromartigen Ausschreitungen, sondern so Leute wie Icke, mit ihrem Anti-Rassismus. Danke Lauren Stokes und @michellelkahn.bsky.social, dass ich zu diesem wichtigen Buch betragen durfte.

I am so happy I renewed my passport last year ...
Perhaps now is the time for JD to speak with AfD leaders in Germany ...
Can't remember the last time I felt this excited about an election in a country I was actually living in at the time. It *could* have been the 2023 Polish ones but I had just moved away.
💥Polls closed in Hungary. No exit poll, but 21 Research Institute’s Apr 8–11 exclusive survey for @telexhu.bsky.social shows the opposition Tisza party leading Orbán's Fidesz 55–38, with the far-right Our Homeland around the 5% threshold. Tisza is on the verge of a parliamentary supermajority.
