Public likes from the Bluesky network.
"They left the building. Not the truth." A powerful new documentary, 80 Angry Journalists, shows how Hungary’s once-independent news outlet Index was taken over, and how reporters resigned together rather than submit to political pressure. Trailer⤵️
Show postSaving lives is not a crime! "The courtroom erupted in cheers, shouts, and tears as the verdict was read." Time for Greece, and other EU member states, to end abusive migration and border policies. And to focus on protecting human lives, and human rights.
Show postDid you know that, over the past few years, the United Kingdom has introduced a number of laws that have drastically curtailed the right to protest? A terrible trend. Read this comment by @hrw.org / @lydsg.bsky.social with ideas on how to fix this problem⤵️
Show postWe live in this world now where severe crackdown on peaceful protesters + criminalization of peaceful speech is increasingly becoming a policy not in Russia/Iran & the likes, but in the heart of Western capitals, long claiming to defend liberalism. A frightening new era of pan-Orwellianism.
Show post1/n I was deeply saddened to hear that Gyula Balog passed away earlier this week. I met and interviewed him only a couple of weeks ago, for an ongoing research project, in his home. Gyula described himself as "an alcoholic, a homeless person, an activist, an actor, and an expert by experience."
