Het framen van een zelfmoordterrorist als een “categorie van soldaat” en het wantrouwen van moreel debat wordt gepresenteerd als analyse.
Geweld begrijpen is één ding.
Het onttrekken aan moreel oordeel iets heel anders. Het zegt alles over de auteur.

“Do you like Marx?”
I said, “I haven’t met him.”
Guy said, “No, no, he’s dead.”
“Wow, what happened?”
“No, no, he died long ago.”

⚪ Q & A from 2013 : Bhakti Shringarpure talks to academic and writer Mahmood Mamdani, father of Zohran.
Thinking of #zohranmandani ‘s father #MahmoodMamdani ‘s quote on the May Fourth writer Lu Xun. Hope is perhaps one of the best examples of #cogencytheory; it’s a thing with feathers, it’s an intellectual passion, the youthful spirit that animates how we envision a new world
Meeting with #MiraNair and #MahmoodMamdani in New Delhi when #ZohranMamdani was a teenager provides an insight into the humanism, empathy and politics that mark New York City’s new mayor, a story that has gripped imaginations across Southasia and beyond.
Hadn’t seen so much joy & hope on the internet for a long time: from #ZohranMamdani 's father, #MahmoodMamdani ‘s reference to leftwing Chinese lit giant #LuXun to his mother, filmmaker #MiraNair ‘s Mississippi Masala (thru which they met). World needs joy & hope. We could all do w/ some joy & hope
