  2. Ah yes, let's celebrate 🎉 the legendary *mediocrity* of a warlord famous for being the least successful #samurai in history. Because who wouldn't want to emulate the guy who's basically the historical equivalent of a participation trophy 🏆?

  3. It's Saturday evening chez #Palky, happily listening to the #Soul & #Funk on #BBCSounds, so the news is a mere snippet. I don't normally comment on the #Ukrani situation. It's close to my heart through work with #RefugeeAssistance but, if my beloved #Europe allows the #militarische #warlords (#Zelenski #Putin) to push them into entering the fray, then that will be betraying the very first principles of our founders. #niewiederistjetz Love #peace hate #war. #JustStopAllWars. Thank you. 💖 🕊️ 💖 🇪🇺

  4. Here's some good news:

    The looming death of a cruel #monopoly with a deep #history of #colonial #exploitation, #humanrights abuses, fueling #terrorism and #warlords

    You see, when you can grow it in a lab, nobody cares anymore about your dirty price fixing games, #DeBeers

    Welcome to oblivion

    History books will not write "ooh! sparkly!"

    They will write about the toll of human suffering you inflicted

    "#Diamonds lose their sparkle as prices come crashing down"

  5. Two decades before the war against Ukraine, a “special operation” was launched against #Russian #historical #memory,
    aggressively reshaping the nation’s understanding of its history and identity.

    The Kremlin’s #militarization of Russia through World War II propaganda is well documented, but the #glorification of Russian #medieval society and its #warlords as a source of support for Putinism has yet to be explored.
    This book offers the first comparison of Putin’s political #neomedievalism and re-#Stalinization and introduces the concept of #mobmemory to the study of right-wing populism.
