Comparisons are hermeneutic devices for mediating between the singular and the universal and thus essential for *thinking* as such. "russian colonialism 101" is a deeply thought, beautifully accessible provocation for an urgent conversation. @maksymeristavi

Thank you so much to @AliVelshi @TheLastWord for asking about my recent trip to Kyiv. I have many stories, but the punchline is this: Either we give Ukrainians what they need to defeat Russia *now,* or we prepare for the third world war.
