The Rest is Politics is pretty much the only podcast where I unequivocally think the worse of anyone who I learn is a regular listener. No morally sane person should help Campbell whitewash his reputation.
"The spin doctor has (in his own words) morphed from ‘alleged war criminal’ to ‘national treasure’. Don’t worry, this book will undo that..."

Didier Fassin's second lecture on Gaza.
"The Time Has Come. Autopsy of an Outrage – Part II: Life. What Is a Human Being Worth
On 20 October, Didier Fassin delivered the second of three IWM Lectures in Human Sciences. They represent an attempt to account for what happened both on the ground and in the world three years into the Israeli military campaign that has resulted in the destruction and occupation of Gaza and the decimation of its population. The lectures are structured around what Michel Foucault analyzed in The Order of Things as the three “quasi-transcendental components” of the modern episteme, namely language, life, and labor.
"Life," the second lecture, focused on inequality in life and in lives, distinguishing between biographical and biological life, and also addressing inequality in the face of death and among the dead.
The evening was moderated by Janina Kehr, Professor of Medical Anthropology and Global Health at the Department of Social and Cultural Anthropology at the University of Vienna."

🔴 Selon la dernière estimation gouvernementale, au moins 3 000 commerces auraient été touchés par les violences des 17 et 18 octobre.
💶 D'après Morningstar DBRS, le coût des dégâts s'élève à 1,2 milliards d'euros.

I cannot believe this. The 2024 NHS pandemic plan states the following generic assumptions:
“it will not be possible to halt the spread of a new pandemic virus, and it would be a waste of public health resources and capacity to attempt to do so.”

Lola-Fleur s'en fout encore plus du 17 octobre 1961. Pour elle ça n'est qu'un argument prêt à l'emploi dans son kit de rhétorique pour militant gauchiste sans cerveau. Elle sait qu'elle peut dérouler 2-3 minutes derrière sans réfléchir.

Houellebecq’s “Submission” was hated by the left, but seems like its real joke is at the expense of postliberal Christian “civilizationists.” The Muslim leader Ben Abbes turns out to be the only one capable of delivering a postliberal order; Christians end up superfluous.

Cette militante qui explique à une victime qu’une menace de viol, ce n’est qu’un dommage collatéral de la révolution contre le système néolibéral.

Once again, this is absolutely correct and everybody who knows anything about France knows that it's correct, but it's convenient for a lot of people to use the tired cliché about French rioting to pretend that it was just another Saturday in France, erase the distinction between regular protesters on the one hand and looters/far-left activists on the other and pretend that it has nothing to do with immigration.
Terrible scenes in most large French cities today. But this was not political protest in any true sense. Most of the real demonstrations against high oil prices and failing schools were peaceful. The violence came from a fringe of the ultra left. The looting by opportunistic gangs from the poor suburbs. All good news for Marine Le Pen
