New from me:
After Musk helped create the permission structure for this weeks riots in Belfast, the UK government announced "no change" to its policy on X. This non-response is stranger than it looks: Weber defines the state by its exclusive right to use, threaten, and authorize force, and European states are visibly conceding the latter two. That has direct consequences for a movement that pitches open protocols as the path to European sovereignty.
@fediversereport (Not a historian) My understanding is that the idea of a state having the exclusive monopoly on violence in a certain territory is actually a relatively recent phenomenon. E.g. in Europe, Church jurisdiction and secular jurisdiction could apply in the same location, depending on the person involved and their affiliation, and both would jealously guard their rights against the other.
