What is Fascism?The third lecture in my new course, "Hitler and Stalin today."snyder.substack.comThis is American news claiming that a Russian attack on Ukraine was a Ukrainian attack on Russia. The only way Russia wins this war is when we spread its propaganda, as we are doing here.
Ron FilipkowskiWhy is ABC doing false stories based on Russian propaganda?

Special Kherson Cat 17th: I Want to BelieveSupport the campaign and equip Ukraine's defenders with the tools they need to fight back.www.help99.coThis is Russia’s crime — but it is partly our responsibility, in the United States. We are doing much less than we should, on the rationale that letting Russians kill Ukrainians will end the war. It won’t. That is wrong as strategy, and as ethics.
Anton Gerashchenko"Mom is gone...We don't have a mom anymore.I wish this were just a nightmare..." Last night,a Russian missile strike on Odesa killed the mom of 3 boys as they were rushing to a shelter.Her sons survived but were injured One more person was killed. Deepest condolences. Russia must be stopped

The "Supergirl" movie's message is that it doesn't matter if you're unprepared and narcissistic; you win because you are strong and the stars align for you. This is an American way of seeing things. Our disastrous war in Iran has been fought on these principles. snyder.substack.com/p/supergirl-...
Supergirl (Movie Review)The Tragedy of Carelessnesssnyder.substack.comTrump is pursuing this war in the HOPE that Iran carries out an act of terror in the US. And even if it doesn’t, which I doubt it will, consider the possibility that Trump's people would fake one. Please consider this essay, written back in March. snyder.substack.com/p/the-desire...

Ethnic Cleansing in Ohio?Nazi Lies in Vance's Americasnyder.substack.comTo fall into a stupor of self-absorption, as Trump has done, is to flee from reality. Few wars are worth fighting; those that are fought can only be won in the world, and not within the tortured confines of estranged minds.
Timothy SnyderAs Trump announced his whimsy war in Iran, I was reading about another imperial campaign, long ago, against an Iranian people. I found a perspective on the wars of today, & a sense of why, beyond his obvious incompetence in military matters, Trump had to lose his. snyder.substack.com/p/of-stoicis...
