As a very rapidly ageing country, Italy gives citizenship to Javier Milei, whose grandad was Italian, but not to a 16 year old who was born in Italy to foreign parents, has gone to school there, speaks the local dialect, & cannot imagine their future anywhere else...

Suicidal.

@Lo_Mascolo Dear Dr. Lo Mascolo: Thanks for editing this great volume. I've enjoyed reading "The Christian Right in Europe." I will cite it in my populism and religion book project and teach it in my courses.

Italian daily La Stampa, saying in an article that a body that was found does not belong to "a boy" but rather to a "Moroccan" 😳🤮

@veni_vidi_ceni So they prefer the Empire's Creed over the Nicene Creed? Great.

Am Ende eines langen Wahlabends: Europa rückt nicht überall weiter nach rechts: Nicht in Polen, nicht in Schweden, nicht in Finnland, nicht in Ungarn. Dort könnten Orbáns herbe Stimmenverluste Ende seiner Ära einläuten. #Europawahl

[Carl Bildt @carlbildt]

In 🇸🇪 it’s the Greens and the Left that are gaining, and the far right Sweden Democrats doing worse than expected.

[Aurelien Mondon @aurelmondon]

Remember to account for turnout when the results of the European elections come out

For example: if the RN gets 30% but turnout is only 50%, it means 85% of voters did *not* vote for the RN

Them winning is awful and 15% far too much but don't make them look bigger than they are

In my mind sharing AI generated imagery from conflict makes you complicit in the denial of war crimes, because you're helping the side you're against deny future crimes by claiming side uses AI generated imagery of war crimes so can't be trusted.

‘This collection shows that Populists don’t just instrumentalise religion: Europe’s conservative Christians feeling left behind by cultural change + are bargaining with illiberal political actors’.
