How cultural institutions subtly silence and exclude writers, in the guise of concern or responsibility, to censor and “reshape[s] what other writers feel able to say, and what audiences are permitted to hear”.

Since its original formulation and application in the health sector in Aotearoa New Zealand in the 1980s, Cultural Safety has been subject to wide reinterpretation. Its entry into institutional life more broadly has seen it turned it into a concept that allows it to be appropriated by the very powers that dominate the culture wars.
At BBC, 'Russia threatens' and 'Netanyahu says'.

The lyrics can be interpreted as a metaphor for international relations - especially being betrayed by #France, but I still feel #Michelle is a weaker contribution than last year's New Day Will Rise, 2024's Hurricane or even Unicorn (which was from before everything changed).
But it ain't that bad either.
So f***k it, of course I'm gonna vote for #Israel - on principle, to troll #Greta and all the other thugs.
Go ahead. Unfollow me. Block me.

Boycotting Israels participation in Eurovision, booing and harassing the Israeli artists will not free Palestine. What it will do is contribute to a hateful environment against jews that make jewish life in Europe more and more unsafe. Which is why we‘re giving zero points to antisemitism! #esc".
Those who've been following me for a while probably know my favorite #restaurant in #München - the #EclipseGrillbar. Fabulous #food: grilled meat or fish, vegan mezze, you name it. Selected #cocktail creations among the finest ever to taste. And such a wonderful atmosphere.
There's been an arson attack last night. Nobody has been physically hurt.
#Eclipse stays open.
You. Will. Not. Frighten. Us.
@millerebonds be brave to share your opinion of hamas members hanging LGBT Gaza citizens. Your voice matters!
Every generation, someone tries.
They always fail.
Let's eat. 🍷
This Passover Israel is living this story in real time, not just retelling it.
May this Passover be quiet, peaceful, and safe.
And may the world finally, truly, let my people go - in every possible way.
Let us live. Let us prosper. Let us celebrate.
Happy Passover.
We're still here.
💙🇮🇱

Wieland Hoban explains #philosemitism in Germany:
"It’s very difficult to have a general sense of Jews as ordinary people who are part of the country’s population. Many people have an image frozen in time of Jews as the victims of the Nazis, who were the parents or grandparents of many Germans.
"In some cases, this leads to an over-compensation which means that people want to have a particularly favourable idea of Jews. They make a point of doing what they think is supporting Jews. Including supporting Israel, going on holiday in Israel, or cultivating connections to Israel thinking this somehow revives Jewishness."
