India's citizenship laws being effectively weaponised against Muslims. For several years I have not been able to tell my students that India is the world's largest democracy :( #India #Democracy #VotingLists #Ethnocracy #EthnicDemocracy

It is long past time for the world to treat Israel's lies like those of other #apartheid #SettlerColonies. The #ethnocracy created there by land seizure and #EthnicCleansing is more extreme than were Northern Ireland or South Africa. We Jews are made less safe by #Zionist crimes.
Israel operates as an #ethnocracy, privileging Jewish identity in law and governance. Palestinians face systemic inequality, restricted rights, and segregation - particularly in the occupied territories - so effectively a form of #apartheid.
This is your brain on #Orientalism, #SettlerColonialism, and #Zionism. Israelis are not defending themselves from unjustified attacks by Palestinians. They have spent 77 years imposing #ethnocracy & oppressing an indigenous population -- a people with the very same roots as they.
Today’s word is #Ethnocracy.
"Unchecked, Israel’s ultimate destination was always towards genocide. It is an ideological compulsion embedded in Israel’s notions of ethnic supremacy and chosen-ness."
#ethnocracy
It sucks this is such a hard concept for Americans, but I blame our long history of #WhiteSupremacy. When we toppled #apartheid #SouthAfrica in 1994 & #NorthernIreland in 1998, only Israel was left as an #EthnoState. See, e.g., Israeli scholar #OrenYiftachel's book #Ethnocracy.
