  1. New Lecture Series for the Public: "Hitler and Stalin Today" [Timothy Snyder]

    Source:
    snyder.substack.com/p/new-lect

    - **Institution:** University of Toronto
    - **Lecturer:** [Timothy Snyder](substack.com/@snyder)
    - **University Course Code:** [MUN180H1](artsci.calendar.utoronto.ca/co)
    - **Subject:** #authoritarianism #colonization #communism #democracy #fascism #genocide #history #holocaust #politics #soviet #worldhistory
    - **Year:** 2026
    - **Description:**
    > The first lecture in a ten-lecture series on Hitler and Stalin today.
    >
    > The first lecture (video above) is titled “What is history?” We speak often about history, but we are careless with the past. When we choose not to know what has happened before, we are also choosing not to influence what will happen after. If we don’t care about history, we find ourselves in an eternal present, denied any sort of imagination about the future, and nurtured on lies about a past in which we were innocent. History does not mean these misleading tales; it means a search for knowledge, using a certain set of tools; it means a process that enriches and humanizes, one that allows us to name things by their proper names.
    >
    > There are two readings to go along with this lecture:
    >
    > - [Tadeusz Borowski, Here in Our Auschwitz](librarysearch.library.utoronto)
    > - [The War on History is a War on Democracy](nytimes.com/2021/06/29/magazin)

  8. 'On this basis of their similar ideologies about ethnicity and nationhood, National Socialists and Zionists worked together for what each group believed was in its own national interest. As a result, the Hitler government vigorously supported Zionism and Jewish emigration to Palestine from 1933 until 1940-1941, when the Second World War prevented extensive collaboration.'

  11. "Administrators at a small-town #highschool in western #Pennsylvania scurried this week to assure parents and media that neo-#Nazism is frowned upon after a #student contributed a quote promoting #Holocaust denialism to the annual yearbook of #FranklinRegionalSeniorHighSchool.

    According to local news outlets, the student slipped the quote “271k or not enough” past the #yearbook committee’s editors, none of whom knew its connection to the #neoNazi community’s belief that #NaziGermany killed nowhere near the 6 million #Jews murdered in #WorldWarII.

    As explained by the #AntiDefamationLeague (#ADL), the false “271k” figure emerged from a pseudo-historical claim that the #RedCross kept internal documents reporting that #AdolfHitler’s regime murdered no more than 300,000 Jews, a fabrication the organization has discredited numerous times." 🙃

  13. The actual most interesting man in the world.

    "[A]s #Morin always insisted, truth is complex. So, too, was his career, which in many ways reflects the origin story of the #French #intellectual. Born as #EdgarNahoum in #Paris in 1921, his parents were #Jewish immigrants from #Salonica, a city that had been home to #Greece’s largest Jewish community until #WorldWarII. (Nearly 90% of the community, some 54,000 men, women, and children were eventually murdered in #Nazi #deathcamps.) A precocious student, #Nahoum spent his days in libraries studying #German philosophers like #Hegel and his nights in cinemas studying French films directed by the likes of #MarcelPagnol.

    Yet everything changed, including his name, come #France’s defeat and #occupation by #NaziGermany in 1940. Making his way to the Unoccupied Zone, the 20-year-old Nahoum, who had been a pacifist before the war, soon joined both the banned #CommunistParty and the #FrenchResistance."

  17. It's #VictoryDay!

    Some decrepit #Kremlin goons spent 45 minutes saluting each other in #RedSquare

    🥳

    For Victory Day, celebrating the #RedArmy's defeat of #NaziGermany in a war started when the #Soviets and the #Nazis agreed to invade #Poland together, let's watch this new video from #Kramatorsk

    Ukrainians cower, fearful of " #HumanSafari": #Ukraine's civilians are hunted for laughs by #Russia's drones, the videos then posted on #socialMedia
