Esteemed and valued friends, colleagues, chance encounters. It’s time to leave this ship — too much hate, too many bots and bad actors. It was a privilege to get to meet you all. See you in real life or on Insta (stupid but less toxic). Yours Michael .@m_loebenstein

The government wants to stop funding the Haaretz newspaper. The government is exploiting this existential war to destroy Israeli democracy. Please strengthen the Israeli civil society against all its enemies: Subscribe and read Haaretz!

A year ago @fruitmarket I saw @markcousinsfilm multi-screen installation work about Wilhelmina Barns-Graham, “Like a Huge Scotland". If his feature doc is as moving and sublime we're in for something very special.

In der Langversion der gestrigen #zib2 weigert sich der Pal. Botschafter Abdel Shafi die Hamas zu verurteilen, er leugnet Hamas-Verbrechen, bestreitet das Babys geköpft wurden. @DoronRabinovici war wunderbar. Dem Antisemiten Shafi sollte hingegen keine Bühne mehr geboten werden.

In April 2016, I broke the story of Trump and Putin, using Russian open sources. Afterwards, I heard vague intimations that something was awry in the FBI in New York, specifically counter-intelligence and cyber. We now have a suggestion as to why. 0/20

I spent significant time @filmmuseumwien researching filmic records of Jewish persecution under the Nazi regime, as well as @vhh_project with amazing partners in the US, EU and Israel. This has led to many friendships, projects and events fostering awareness and learning 1/2

2/2 My colleagues and I are horrified by the cruel and unjustifiable terrorist attacks on the Israeli civilian population and Jews worldwide. Our thoughts are with the victims, and with our colleagues in Israel in this darkest time.

Folgt @te_hartmann , nicht nur in Sachen #digitalvisualhistory und #digihum sondern eben gerade jetzt, wo der Mord an Jüd*innen und Israelis prekäre Allianzen in sozialen Medien und digtalen Öffentlichkeiten findet.

In Gaza gab es im Sommer wochenlang Proteste gegen Hamas. Keinen hat es interessiert. Seit Jahren hätte man darauf hinwirken können, dass Hamas Gaza aus dem Würgegriff lässt. Stattdessen wurde sie als Teil einer globalen Linken verharmlost. /1

Saddened by the passing of Austrian film producer and director Kurt Mayer (1951 – 2023). Kurt was a prolific artist, and entrusted @filmmuseumwien with his precious collection of nitrate film. A fine man, a big loss. filmmuseum.at/aktuelles/news… – at Pordenone, Friuli-Venezia Giulia

Exzellenter Kommentar von @PhilippeNarval zum armseligen Nehammervideo und einigen Aspekten der Realität von Armut in Österreich. derstandard.at/story/3000000…

Unsere armseligen Lügen

Gerne sehen wir Österreicherinnen und Österreicher uns als spendenfreudig und sozial. Doch was Armut betrifft, sind wir ziemlich ahnungslos

When somebody poisons a conversation with stolen, contrary rhetoric, saying reparations or affirmative action are "racist," banning abortion is "feminism," terfing is "protecting women," or that scabs "are workers," a good way to handle it is to tell them to fuck off.
