Xi "believes that China is better able than the US to ‘eat bitterness’—that is, to endure hardship & emerge stronger from periods of struggle." IGP Senior Research Scholar @juliangewirtz.bsky.social quoted in @ishaantharoor.bsky.social’s piece in @newyorker.com: www.newyorker.com/news/the-led...

How the Iran War Is Shifting Power Toward China

Thanks to @columbiaigp.bsky.social for hosting such a special discussion about Why Fascists Fear Teachers with your students.

Autocrats want to spread division, fear, apathy, and isolation to sell a mythical past where only they can make everything better. They fear educators because civic engagement means equity of opportunity and communities working together to support one another.
