#political-culture — Public Fediverse posts

Mark Gatiss is getting attention for a quote that challenges a long-held cultural comfort: the idea that fascism was somehow incompatible with British identity.

Participation, dignity, care, transparency, inclusion, voice — the language is everywhere. But what happens when the words remain, while the structures meant to carry them grow thinner, vaguer, or harder to answer for?

If American voters had seen this “IQ comparison” earlier, they probably would have voted the same way anyway. #USPolitics #Democracy #Elections #PoliticalCulture #CriticalThinking

@makenakelly.bsky.social nailed it with "Politics Is Fandom; Fascism Is Fanfic". I think we’re in an era where outrage is currency, nuance is dead, and the next few years could get even wilder. #USPol #MediaCriticism #PoliticalCulture #SocialMedia

Politics Is Fandom; Fascism Is...

Chris Maisano on conservative leftist thought

'the history of leftist discomfort with cultural progressivism stretches back at least as far as the 1960s, when former liberals and socialists inaugurated a neoconservative project grounded in contempt for the “new class” of college-educated professionals in postwar America'

Every institution has a ghost. And no, not the Halloween kind. The kind made of old habits, old fears, old rituals and old incentives. The kind that politely swallows our best reform ideas time and again.

Zionism Wasn't Always Racist. The Trouble Began When Russians Took Over

An interesting article challenges conventional narratives surrounding Israeli political culture, positing that its emphasis on force and expansionism is significantly rooted in the brutal political landscape of late Imperial Russia.

Examining the impact of the Second "Aliyah" (colonial expedition) and the subsequent dominance of Russian-Jewish political ideologies within the Zionist movement, the author argues for a reassessment of historical influences beyond typical analyses of religious messianism or colonial models.

The piece contends that a critical examination of this largely unacknowledged Russian inheritance is crucial for understanding contemporary Israeli policy and for envisioning alternative trajectories.
