Really sorry to hear about Ricardo Pérez Monfort‘s passing, who I remember as an untiringly curious and original scholar and a real mensch. He went too early.
It's very likely that an oil shock helped to crater housing production in the 1970s and could be about to do so again. publiccomment.blog/p/the-housin...
North Tehran’s Aqdasiyeh oil depot is ablaze tonight after it was targeted by multiple US-Israeli airstrikes. Apocalyptic scenes filmed by Iranians driving on the nearby highway. Local reporters saying firefighters can’t put it out. This depot is critical energy infrastructure for Iran.
We are quantifying this exact pattern and find:
Israelis double as likely to be described using humanizing frames. Palestinians overwhelmingly described wrt infrastructure damage.
Palestinians 6X more likely to be discussed in relation to their govt. Israelis paired with govt 5% of the time.

"U.S. military investigators believe it is likely that U.S. forces were responsible for an apparent strike on an Iranian girls' school."
"The strike would rank among the worst cases of civilian casualties in decades of U.S. conflicts in the Middle East."
i think most people who follow me are already with me on this, but here's my full case for why accountability is necessary & how i think we should lobby for it

A problem with history is that all of it is inevitable once it's occurred.
"Hey Kurds, it's the United States. Remember us, from all the betrayals? Anyhoo, would love it if you all could march into this thresher for us. Let us know."

Inhumane, horrifying, disgusting

Trump Tweet from 2013 Remember that I predicted a long time ago that President Obama will attack Iran because of his inability to negotiate properly-not skilled!

Post a pic you took, no context, to bring some zen to the feed.
This shit makes me so angry. Zionism is *not* a religious belief, though there are absolutely religious zionists whose religion informs their Zionism.
I know that, being one myself.

What is child stunting — and how has it changed over the last 200 years?
Stunting means being too short for one’s age due to chronic undernutrition and disease in early life.
It’s one of the clearest markers of cumulative deprivation in childhood.

A man was choked on the floor of a Charlotte restaurant by Border Patrol agents — and thousands of Americans invented a knife to justify it.

Turkish state TV just aired a scene where an Ottoman prince slaughters Jewish merchants on screen while the Khaybar chant plays in the background. This is new territory — even for TRT. I wrote about what it means, and why almost nobody in Turkey noticed or cared.
A 65% year-on-year increase in Marie Sklodowska-Curie postdoctoral fellowships!
And not this applicants fault, but these are the predictable effects of A) the continuing overproduction of PhD´s; B) austerity in many European universities; and C) the collapse of the US and UK research systems.
Far-right Alternative for Germany embroiled in nepotism scandal - #AfD is accused of adopting a “clan-like structure" as the AfD in Saxony-Anhalt exploits shamelessly the state and diverts taxpayers’ money to its own families”. www.ft.com/content/0d63... via @FT #FarRight #Corruption #DonaldTrump
Trump's racist video depicting the Obamas as apes wasn't a mistake—it's part of a pattern. From DHS posting neo-Nazi recruitment material to erasing slavery exhibits, white nationalism has become official government policy.

Why do otherwise rational people disagree about the same evidence? Our new paper finds that group membership is a deeply rooted influence on how we form beliefs, leading even preschoolers to bias their evidential standards and form inaccurate beliefs.

The arrests of journalists Don Lemon and Georgia Fort are a test for every MSM member with a platform. If you are not voicing your outrage at this blatant violation of the First Amendment, you are utterly discredited as a journalist.
"Up to 380 people may have drowned attempting to cross the Mediterranean last week". The West's normalisation of the mass death of black Africans (because that is predominantly who these people are) will never be less than devastating.
