> I'll work on it.☺️ I'm a hopeless introvert, easily intimidated by interactions with people. Which is why I am spotty in my conversations online. It's really silly, but that's where I'm at.🤪 Sorry.

@dswidow@newsie.social , two points (I think along with #TimothySnyder):

1 You / I can do something however introvert, intimidated or spotty you are / I am.

2 Perhaps, "standard mastodoning" is detrimental to the goals you / I want to achieve.

#TimothySnyder fan club(?)

I want a cooperation of some inhabitants or citizens of the European Union defined by interest in Timothy Snyder.

though sometimes I worry he is just telling me what I want to hear, so I try to read and listen to lots of other people too

I, too, try to counter the confirmation bias

1. I would like a cooperation that is something more than plain tooting, boosting and faving.

2. I would like a collaboration that is self-setting = "we" get to determine what we collaborate on and what the collaboration looks like.

3. I'm thinking: we can call each other's attention to works and expressions of #TimothySnyder .

4. I'm thinking: we can collect those works and speeches or links to them in some more permanent/clear form than the toots on Mastodon. Maybe here on "Náměstí Praha 3" https://trojkatretiho.cz/viewforum.php?f=1 .

5. I'm thinking: we can discuss the works and speeches in a more systematic and sustained way than is possible on Mastodon. Maybe here.

6. I'm thinking: We can seek out works and speeches that criticize Snyder, and we can discuss those as well.

7. I'd like our collaboration to be kind, pleasant, and each to devote as little time and energy to it as they want.

8. What do you have on mind?

I will start trying to remember to hashtag #TimothySnyder when I post

> When Snyder admonishes us to 'not obey in advance', he is saying to not be bullied into acceptance of things we find abhorrent, and thereby allow them to be 'normalized'. Right now there is an concerted effort to quiet those who call out "fascism". Do not obey in advance.

#TimothySnyder : Political Violence: Reflections from the 1920s and 1930s

"Nothing in recent American political life resembles Trump’s call for “Second-Amendment people” to kill Hillary Clinton, his mockery of Paul Pelosi after an attempted murder, his belittling of Gretchen Whitmer after a kidnapping attempt, the stochastic violence he directs against critics to intimidate them and against his fellow Republicans to keep them in line..."

ČRO PLUS: KONFERENCE HRANICE (NE)SVOBODY

https://vzlet.cz/program/hranice-nesvob ... i-poucime/

https://plus.rozhlas.cz/konference-hran ... hy-9251105

https://www.vaclavhavel.cz/cs/index/kal ... ne-svobody

Byl jsem na:

19:30 – 20:30 Timothy Snyder: Havel, nepředvídatelnost a svoboda přednášku uvede Milan Babík, ředitel Knihovny Václava Havla

20:30 – 21:30 Timothy Snyder + Sevhil Musajevová: debata moderovaná Janem Bumbou

Zážitek s přednášky super. Vlastně Snyder neříkal nic převratně nového oproti předchozím svým vystoupením a textům - i když společensky je to možná převratně nové, ale já se u toho / z něho / z plného sálu měl silné prožitky. Smysl? Láska?

Prý z toho do čtrnácti dnů bude nějaký výstup skrze Český Rozhlas.
