🚨 The French Govt is expected at any moment to unveil a deeply troubling "entryism" bill. By expanding powers dissolve NGOs by decree, this upcoming legislation risks further suffocating an already shrinking civic space in France. My latest for @hrw: hrw.org/news/2026/07/1…

@rochowanski @judeinlondon i just don't know that's the case in albania. berisha's party, which tried hard to attach itself to trump and ride the global anti-DEI & anti-gender wave, got trounced in the election. no real reason to think the silent majority is with them (or cares) and this law will backfire
@rochowanski @judeinlondon on the flip side to your main point, i think backlash from actors trying to import US culture war grievances is often given too much weight as a genuine expression of deeply held societal attitudes. no way to see how people "really" feel when we take away the foreign influence
@rochowanski @judeinlondon english-language coverage missed a lot. i don't speak albanian, but from a machine translation there's nothing radical in the law apart from defining gender as socially constructed in line with the istanbul convention. the opposition wanted it defined as biological and immutable
@rochowanski @judeinlondon there's no third gender. the uproar was over a formulation defining gender as having an "inclusive meaning", which berisha's conservative opposition party (which boasted of having its programme written by the heritage foundation) used to push false narratives about 70 genders
@lilyslynch they NEED to take him on as an urban planning consultant. I'm sure he has the time
