H-Soz-Kult. Kommunikation und Fachinformation für die Geschichtswissenschaften"The Empire and I"As renewed imperial ambitions endanger our modern democratic systems, imperial research takes stronger interest in individuals and their actions inside imperial structures. While history has traditionally focused on the actions of “Great Men”, imperial studies now also focus on the entirety of imperial agents and subjects.

The #HybridWarfare strategy was put in place with Columbine.

9/11 was a failed test of #institutions knowledge-sharing, or lack thereof.

#SandyHook tested the response of the #BodyPolitic.

Infosec ExchangeThe Nexus of Privacy (@thenexusofprivacy@infosec.exchange)[Effective moderation of social media to curb genocidal content](https://www.dair-institute.org/tigray-genocide/) "The 2020-2022 Tigray war is reported to be the deadliest armed conflict of the 21𝑠𝑡 century, with an estimated 600 to 800,000 documented deaths and more than 100 thousand victims of rape as a weapon of war. Social media platforms were instrumental in spreading genocidal content during the conflict, and failure to effectively moderate hateful content resulted in the murder of civilians. This work investigates the expertise and processes required to effectively moderate such genocidal content, and compares these findings to the expertise and processes prioritized by social media platforms." @DAIR@dair-community.social's page has a 10-minute video and a link to the CHI paper, and a statement - which I'll include excerpts from in a reply. #moderation #tigraygenocide #tigray #genocide

Where @ethanz tells us about the cultural power of #DontLookUp:

"But there’s something Don’t Look Up gets right. Many of our #institutions are failing us. The experts don’t know what to do. The feelings of terror and helplessness lead people to behave strangely and unpredictably. McKay doesn’t offer us a solution to an ongoing #apocalypse, but this #film, at its best, offers us a moment of #empathy. Look past the machinations of the politicians and the media stars, and look towards the people in the background trying to make sense of a reality that no longer makes sense, disrupted by #COVID or #climatechange or by a slide into #authoritarianism. If there’s a solution to this polycrisis, this interconnected mess of apocalyptic threats, it’s in the #groups working to live through this scary moment, not through the politicians or celebrities who’ll get to escape to their bunkers or spaceships."

In #America everyone speaks of the cost of the 'grocery' and the #Tariff ...
But nobody seems to take the MAIN problem into consideration

All
... truly all
#TRUMP actions
have been aimed at weakening and damaging #America
first trump attacked the #Institutions and the #Governament
dismantel it
then trump damaged the #Army eliminating capable officers
Then attacked the #Allies
now tanking the US #Economy

No Trump action has been in 'favor' of the #USA
...
Nobody asks questions ?
