Σοβαρά ιδιωτικά πανεπιστήμια είναι αδύνατον να δημιουργηθούν στην Ευρώπη. Αυτό το ξέρουν όσες και όσοι γνωρίζουν τα ελάχιστα περί πανεπιστημίων. Τότε, γιατί η ελληνική άρχουσα τάξη (αντίθετα, π.χ., με την βρετανική ή την γαλλική) θέλει διακαώς ιδιωτικά πανεπιστήμια (στα οποία ποτέ δεν θα στείλει τα παιδιά της); Πέραν της εξυπηρέτησης των συμφερόντων των κολλεγιαρχών, ο […]

It was early September in 1971. My mother had taken me in a taxi to a boutique hotel in a leafy northern Athenian suburb to visit my favourite uncle, her beloved brother. Before we got out the car, she put her arm around me and whispered words of courage in my ear. You see, Hotel […]

POne of my first thoughts after hearing about the death of the Queen in September 2022 was: ‘Fuck, they’re going to cancel the match’. I am a Liverpool fan, and we were due to play Chelsea at Stamford Bridge that weekend. I knew that at least that one game would be cancelled (as it was, […]
Chris’s post on declining population has prompted me to get started on what I plan, in the end, to be a lengthy critique of the pro-natalist position that dominates public debate at the moment. My initial motivation to do this reflected long-standing concerns about human impacts on the environment but I don’t have any particular […]

Amid Israel’s ongoing three-month war in Gaza, more than 23,000 Palestinians, mostly women and children, have been killed. South Africa accused Israel of “genocidal intent” over its war on the besieged Gaza Strip on Thursday, and pleaded with judges at the UN International Court of Justice (ICJ) to issue an interim order demanding Israel halt its offensive in the embattled territory.

Senator Brian Schatz tweeted this yesterday: He made these remarks today: People didn’t take Hitler seriously either. Once they realized he meant it, it was too late.

I thought I had heard it all but I’d never heard this before today. It’s from 2015: As JV Last pointed out in the Bulwark a couple of days ago, this is what Trump means when he says he “negotiates.” Trump simply demands what he wants, over and over, in different venues, and offers nothing in return except that if you give him what he wants, he’ll let you have peace. For a time. It’s the tactic of a spoiled child. Which is what he is. And he has another spoiled bully-boy tactic that works for him very well: “I know you are but what am I.” It’s a maddening form of gas lighting that he’s deployed forever but uses pretty adroitly in his political life, mainly because the media just throws up its hands and retreats to “both sides” coverage because it’s easier.
