MPSA papers submitted! I will be presenting work with @hmridge on the conditional effect of ascriptive identities on tolerance for democratic transgressions on Saturday. We are very grateful to the @PRL_Tweets for including our experiments in their survey in Germany and Israel!

@maya_sen There is a perverseness to pressuring campuses to punish and ban protesting and then complaining about the absence of protests

[Monica Marks @MonicaLMarks]

Regime change is clearly our aspiration, though not one we’re likely to execute. Trump hopes this ⬇️ paves the path for regime opponents to take back Iran.

He may be creating conditions for civil war, fragmentation or a less capable version of this regime instead.

What do you do if you suspect a reviewer used AI to do the review? (hallucinated citation, inverted conclusions)

A plea to reviewers:

If you are going to recommend rejecting a manuscript after 3+ rounds of revisions, can you at least do so in a timely manner?

"Gaza genocide: a collective crime." Absolutely read @FranceskAlbs's new report about how Third States have provided direct support, material aid, diplomatic protection and, in some cases, active participation in the Gaza genocide. https://t.co/fj0K8zilZu

[Shibley Telhami @ShibleyTelhami]

This insight is exactly what's missing in the major media reports about Israel already limiting aid to Gaza, just one day after 'end of war' celebration. Cruel and scandalous:

📓 New paper examining the effect of religious cues on (non)democratic attitudes
Jewish Israelis who answer questions on the Sabbath expressed more openness to non-democratic governance -- largely from 'secular' respondents (@ESS_Survey @ElectionStudyIL)

“It is clear there is an intent to destroy the Palestinians in Gaza through acts that meet the criteria set forth in the Genocide Convention.”

UN Independent International Commission of Inquiry's report shows #Israel has committed #genocide in #Gaza.

@MonicaLMarks Sparta + Athens was famously disastrous for democracy (see Thucydides).

📘Excited to see this at @TempleUnivPress table #APSA2025

@rbkhoury It's been a minute since the hubbub about "the politics of class warfare." It could be a nice retro moment.

Israel. In fact, the number one killer of LGBTQ+ people in Gaza is Israel. Thousands and thousands dead.

[Hannah M Ridge @hmridge]

RT @ShibleyTelhami: It’s Genocide:
This is now the determination about what Israel is committing in Gaza not only by leading genocide scho…

[Eman Abdelhadi @emanabdelhadi]

Do you support an immediate end to all aid to Israel? Will you fight anti-boycott laws in your states? Will you ask that your employer boycott Israel? Will you demand your cities and states divest from Israeli bonds? Will you stand up for student protesters? What will you DO?

'This Week, Israel Starved 43 People to Death by Wednesday Afternoon. For Israeli decision-makers, starvation of the Gaza Strip was in the cards from day one of the war' https://t.co/q1hoSSnPtW

[maryam alwan🇵🇸🇸🇾 @maryamalwan]

When we set up the Columbia encampment, mass graves were being uncovered in Gaza's hospitals. Now, as Columbia capitulates to Trump and vows not to divest, Palestinians are starved to death & shot by the IOF at aid sites daily. There are no words for this level of depravity.

ما معنى #الديمقراطية بالنسبة إلى الناس في الشرق الأوسط وشمال أفريقيا؟
تظهر نتائج استطلاع الباروميتر العربي أن الناس يتطلعون إلى الديمقراطية ليس بصفتها نظام انتخابي فحسب، إنما أيضًا – وبالأساس – كوسيلة لتحقيق #الكرامة الشخصية.
