My wife is from Ukraine 🇺🇦 She was one overwhelming majority who voted for independence and took the passport of Ukraine when the #USSR dissolved. Many people like her have been warning anyone who would listen about the true nature and intentions of russia. We will continue supporting Ukrainian efforts to rid their land of this scourge. Hopefully one day soon we will revisit and contribute to the rebuilding of a beautiful nation.

@castelot@ioc.exchange , Great!

Perhaps, we may do the agreement:

*We, abolitionniste, castelot and castelot's wife, trust Timothy Snyder.*

I have tried to develop a phpBB topic-thread "Timothy Snyder". Now, it has 20 posts. First: https://trojkatretiho.cz/viewtopic.php?p=204#p204 . Last: https://trojkatretiho.cz/viewtopic.php?p=606#p606 .

I have tried to develop a "fan club"(?) of Timoty Snyder:

@chefraven@sfba.social @dswidow@newsie.social @energiepirat@mastodon.social @F100@mastodon.social @GreenFire@mstdn.social @mattparr@mastodon.online @Pierrette@mastodon.uno @RFancio@mastodon.social @thepoliticalcat@mastodon.social @theron29@witter.cz @xs4me2@mastodon.social

We may do little things.

#TimothySnyder : The New Paganism: How the Postmodern Became the Premodern. Videorecording of a lecture and Q&A. 98 min.

Not an easy go. Deep, suprising and complicated thoughts on the nature of mess we are in / the world is in. I was enthrolled. I would love to discuss it with someone who goes through the experience too.

Another point: #TimothySnyder's thoughts here... In me... Somehow connect to the phpBB topic-thread "Our Political Group in the European Parliament" (initial post: https://trojkatretiho.cz/viewtopic.php?p=902#p902 ; as of now last post: https://trojkatretiho.cz/viewtopic.php?p=1092#p1092 ). And the discussion of "extreme"(?) and "left"(?) and "right"(?).

In The New Paganism #TimothySnyder tackles the notorious question. What is going on? Why Brexit, Trump, invasion to Ukraine when it makes no sense? When it is irrational. And gives an answer by a correspondence to the pagan world. His answer doesn't rely on the rationality of "them" similar to "our" rationality. But it is still an answer which gives "us" a rational explanation: Aha, "they" are pagans. That makes sense. I believe, "we" should give less energy to trying understand "them" (as rational actors or as pagans) and that "we" should give more energy to understanding "us", to formulating what "we" are, what are "our" political goals, to finding a realising ways to realise "our" goals / "ourselves"(?).

Hm. Well, I try not to have an opinion on almost anything. #TimothySnyder mentions in the lecture there is some scietific research in this area. I am not an expert in the field. And of course, statistics means "not everyone" 🙂
