This is false. The chapter did not “accidentally” quote Hitler. Accidentally quoting Hitler is when you don’t know Hitler was the speaker. The chapter quoted Hitler *and attributed the quote to him.* The @NYTimes is deeply committed to downplaying what the Right is doing.

As a political scientist, I see how this election outcome could have even been worse, how regional particularities matter. As a German citizen, a queer person of color it is simply devastating and frightening that at very high turnout over 30% support extreme right fascists.

1/3 of wild caught wrasse die of starvation after being put in #salmon farm pens. More die of ruptured swim bladders during general operations if nets are raised too quickly, any that survive are killed and dumped. This is an environmental + welfare nightmare. RSPCA Assured

Five #Brazil Supreme Court justices (incl Moraes) voted today on decision to block X in Brazil. Result? 5-0 in favor of block. So, this isn't about one judge. Again, this case is about national sovereignty versus the desires and power of private wealth. apnews.com/article/brazil…

Tucker Carlson's mad interview of this "historian" feels like a skit from Succession

Looks like every second Tenet pundit was also peddling Orbán's propaganda, or even visited Hungary. Besides getting secret payments from Russia, it seems like they received speaking fees for talking at Mathias Corvinus Collegium or Danube Institute. Laura Chen was in Hungary just weeks ago.🧐

I will never stop laughing at this

Today’s quick update [Sep 5]: - SAF airstrikes targeting RSF forces in Khartoum and Elfashir today. - RSF shelling continues to target neighborhoods of Omdurman. #KeepEyesOnSudan

The report also highlights reasonable grounds to believe that SAF & allied forces have committed war crimes of violence to life and person - in particular murder of all kinds, mutilation, cruel treatment and torture; and committing outrages upon personal dignity.

no surprise, but still good to have such a finding at UN level

#KeepEyesOnSudan AlGezira conference coalition revealed that RSF looting is moving to another level; they are now steeling livestock while beating and torturing local communities. Sophisticated guns and rich sponsorship enabled this senseless systamic violence against Sudanese.

Sort of an interesting contrast between old-school and digital-native media, NYT/WaPo/WSJ don't want to come out and say Harris won, whereas at Politico that's literally the headline.
