Last week, I launched a new publication called The Dissident. It's an anti-fascist publication focused on the intersection of tech, privacy, and LGBTQ rights in the current authoritarian moment.

Check it out!

Reporters covering a Chinese dissident in Europe were targeted with bomb threats. An NPR investigation later found evidence the dissident was linked to a con which included the specter of bomb threats.

if there's one thing Evangelical Christians know it's that having the state execute a beloved dissident always stops that dissident's message from spreading so yeah seeking the death penalty for Luigi Mangione seems smart

I like that in becoming a nazi, you get glowing coverage as a brave iconoclast, and then when you stop being a nazi, you’re get glowing coverage as a brave dissident. Money coming and going. Only way you lose is having normal opinions like “racism bad” bsky.app/profile/trac...
OK, Washington Post, enlighten me. What is the bright side of being a Nazi?

⚡️'No point trying to negotiate' with Putin, Yulia Navalnaya says.

"Even if you decided to negotiate with Putin, just remember he will lie," Navalnaya, widow of late Russian dissident Alexei Navalny, said at the Munich Security Conference two days before the anniversary of her husband's death.

Everybody gamely says “Vance hosted Kirk’s podcast” instead of “the regime officially turned the major channel into state-controlled media just as it began its violent crackdown on any opposition or dissident messages.”

Senator dared to question the Empire, directly, and was met with force. Stormtroopers didn’t hesitate. They grabbed him, cuffed him, dragged him away like a dissident, claiming he “failed to identify himself.” But everyone knew who he was. He was a Senator.

I've talked about this before, but one of the reason dissident diasporas tend to be so contentious is because the personality traits that make you a dissident are not ones that make you easy to get on with.
Lemme tell you, annoying people are often very good at getting things done in protest

Inadvertently annoying people who miss social cues (I am often one of them) often persist past points that would make other people socially uncomfortable, and that gives us an edge
the thing about our boy Will is that he's just a regular guy, a bit more stubborn than most, out there with tens of thousands of of other Minnesotans, and if they can stand up to these fuckers so can you.

Hell of a Freudian slip. I *assume* he was thinking of the Baader-Meinhof Gang, a far-left terrorist group. Dietrich Bonhoeffer was a legendary and rightly celebrated anti-Nazi theologian & dissident.
Rep. Brandon Gill: "We particularly need the left to tone down the rhetoric ... somebody is gonna listen and believe they are the next Dietrich Bonhoeffer and act on that and that's what we're seeing here."

I think we're gonna find out that a lot of administrators see purging dissident faculty as an unmixed win
According to colleagues, IU faculty arrested at the Palestine solidarity encampment in Bloomington have been slapped w 1yr bans from campus. I have seen many examples of police brutality agst campus protests over the yrs- inc student bans - but I have never heard of faculty targeted this way before
