It’s been brought to my attention that the Economist cover story is blaming Gen-Z socialism on “an influential group of socialist academics” led by @isabellamweber.bsky.social.
Turns out Gen-Z got radicalized by … our analysis of corporate earnings calls.
Huge if true!

While scholars around the world debated Israel's destruction of Gaza, Germany's political science establishment largely refused to engage. Ana Velasco and Roy Karadag examine why
Mentioning that Portugal's "recognition of Palestinian statehood is likely to have added to support in the global south" is as close as the author gets to acknowledging the actual lesson, which is Don't support genocide.
As expected, @thunen.bsky.social is absolutely on 🔥 in this interview. There’s no one out there with more receipts on the international political economy of US empire. Every sentence full of insight.
