This is why it is imperative that professors are honest and realistic to incoming and current PhD students and not assume or imply that they will face a similar job market as they did or suggest/tell them that only an academic (R1) career is worth their time!

@kanol.bsky.social und @maxschaub.bsky.social heben die Bedeutung der kulturellen Wurzeln des Antisemitismus, insbesondere des christlichen Antijudaismus, hervor und zeigen aktuelle Reaktivierungen: doi.org/10.1017/S153...
Die aktuellen Debatten über eine Entkernung des Sozialstaates mitten in einer Phase wirtschaftlicher Schwäche, in der mehr Menschen noch stärker auf eben diesen angewiesen sein könnten - das darf man wohl Konjunkturprogramm für Extremismus nennen.

It’s shocking to me the lack of response from the American population (elite & non-elite) to the craziness of the current administration. Protests against ICE are good, but at the same time Americans seem to be brushing off the imperial craziness of the regime and barely any public opposition.
good morning mr president, heres your daily list of things you could do today to make everyones life worse
This does have international ramifications too, as far-right parties abroad can claim that the term is not “extremist” because the U.S. government also uses it.

It was never about free speech. It was always about protecting whiteness and its discursive power. If it were about speech, they wouldn’t ban the 1619 Project, books, and history itself, or punish those who remind us of the bigotry Charlie Kirk proudly espoused. Some of us been tryna tell y’all.
The remarks weren’t “about Charlie Kirk,” they were about how this administration is using Kirk’s death as an excuse to shut down critics … and they responded by proving him completely correct.

Stefan Müller@stefanmueller.bsky.social · 11mo agoThe University of Cologne plans drastic cuts to its Political Science department, potentially abolishing the MSc in Political Science and eliminating the professorships in IR and Comparative Politics.

From SIX years ago… insane that so many on the “center left” still don’t get the point. There is now so much solid empirical research available too.
Why copying the populist right isn’t going to save the left
The long read: Social democratic parties have been losing ground for more than two decades – but pandering to rightwing anxieties about immigration is not the solution

We have had stable, professional, vouchsafed information about the physical & economic world for so long that we entirely take it for granted. It's going to be truly wild to operate in a world where quite literally no one knows for sure what is happening, where there is no fact of the matter.

Macht was Ihr wollt, aber denkt dran. Die Klimakrise zu ignorien ist sehr viel teurer als etwas dagegen zu unternehmen. Natürlich ist es unbequem, auf Megakonsum zu verzichten, aber irgendwann geht uns so der Reichtum aus wegen Schäden und ständiger nachträglicher Adaption, die dann nie reicht.
