Feels like, being denied entry to the US is something that we actually should be proud of.

One of my favorite neuroscience lessons:

Independent fact-checking is more important than ever.

I have written a blog entry for @lseeuroppblog.bsky.social: blogs.lse.ac.uk/europpblog/2...

I also discuss how that argument can explain the rapid, and often unforeseen, rise of politicians with this ideology.
In my new op-ed for @newstatesman.com I discuss how Elon Musk became the biggest far-right propagandist, openly espousing neo-Nazi views and shaping an Aryan vision for Europe too. This is just the beginning, considering that Trump has not even entered the WH yet www.newstatesman.com/world/europe...
