🔥 Dancing minister goes viral!

A victory dance by Zsolt Hegedűs has racked up over a million views overnight.

He’s one of the key figures in Péter Magyar’s team and a leading candidate for Hungary’s health minister.

A top orthopedic surgeon, he spent years working in leading UK clinics before returning to Hungary in 2015 to reform the healthcare system. He is now developing Tisza’s healthcare reform plan.

A future minister who can both operate and light up the dance floor. Seen the video yet — what do you think?

@jk_rowling Yeah, it's "takes" for you, for others it's a lived experience. Enjoy your comfort!

[Aneta Stępień @abstepien]

@jk_rowling It's ok. You can give them one day, given everyday is "@jk_rowling look-at-me-how-I-suffer-opression-from-LGBTQ" day

Temperature this morning close to 0 Celsius. Students travel, sometimes from far places, to be in class for 9am. And there is no heating in the biggest teaching building (TSI). Rooms are freezing! Why @MaynoothUni??

Tonight in Berlin, 19-year-old Israeli conscientious objector Sofia Orr @Mesarvot_ shared her story of how she spent over 80 days in a military prison for refusing to participate in Israel’s occupation and its deliberate destruction of Gaza.

Hey we've all had a minute to process, right? All done? Good.

Let's talk about some guidelines for continued use of this platform and other social media systems. This one will probably be the worst, but the same forces are coming for all of them. A quick thread. 🧵🧵🧵

My entire life, I wondered how the world stood by as the Jews were shipped off to the gas chambers during the Holocaust.

Over the past year, I've stopped wondering. The entire Western political & media class has taught us exactly how genocides happen:

1) Dehumanize the victims
2) Manufacture atrocity propaganda
3) Ignore historical context
4) Obsess over one's own history of victimhood
5) Manufacture false claims of antisemitism

What's most shocking is just how easy it has been to compel an entire generation of media & political elites to support genocide.
