• At University of Siegen (D) we’ve organised a lecture series in response to the Russian war in Ukraine in solidarity with the protests in Iran. We’ve opened it up for researchers from various war and conflict zones. Its not only media studies, but perhaps of interest to some of you or your networks. We start today at 6 pm via zoom with Svitlana Matviyenko and the media practices and everyday politics of collecting evidence of Russian war crimes in Ukraine. Best wishes, Tatjana Seitz https://www.mediacoop.uni-siegen.de/de/veranstaltungen/lecture-series-research-at-risk-svitlana-matviyenko/

• As independent media, we don't have to participate in the current Gleichshaltung. Apparently my fellow Dutch people need to be reminded about MH17. And the shameful #nietOnzeOorlog mentality Am I in the wrong country, and a populist is an outgrowth of the culture? I'm scared sometimes. Nope, I stay, and hold accountable. Here, Denys speaks directly, calling the prick a prick. https://youtu.be/d60xeI9n6WE?t=572
• Wilders has threatened to deal with all of them at one point or another. During the campaign, he was silent on this part of his repertoire, in favour of talking about the cost of living and migration, but his party programme was as extreme as ever. Given that his BFF is Viktor Orbán, there is absolutely no reason to dismiss these threats as purely hypothetical." :https://sophieintveld.substack.com/p/the-hangover

Elections

• On Russian state TV they're predictably delighted with the Dutch election result https://twitter.com/i/status/1727661454550073528
• https://youtu.be/d60xeI9n6WE?t=572 Apparently my fellow Dutch people need to be reminded about MH17. The posting date, 1.3.2018 places Wilders' presence in Russia a year and a half after a Dutch-led team of prosecuters presented the evidence of Russian weaponry, and a Russian launch from the temporarily occupied territory of Ukraine.
• Journalists, judges, civil-rights lawyers, teachers, academics - Wilders has threatened to deal with all of them at one point or another. During the campaign, he was silent on this part of his repertoire, in favour of talking about the cost of living and migration, but his party programme was as extreme as ever. Given that his BFF is Viktor Orbán, there is absolutely no reason to dismiss these threats as purely hypothetical." :https://sophieintveld.substack.com/p/the-hangover
