Everyday Erinyes #310

Experts in autocracies have pointed out that it is, unfortunately, easy to slip into normalizing the tyrant, hence it is important to hang on to outrage. These incidents which seem to call for the efforts of the Greek Furies (Erinyes) to come and deal with them will, I hope, help with that. As a reminder, though no one really knows how many there were supposed to be, the three names we have are Alecto, Megaera, and Tisiphone. These roughly translate as “unceasing,” “grudging,” and “vengeful destruction.”

Today, however, the furies and I are taking a day off, in a way.  We are just going to share with youa document which is making the rounds of Twitter and to some extent elsewhere.  It is – correction, it was – a leter from Putin to the UN>  It is now a “There.  Fixed it for ya” from the Canadian mission to the UN  I don;t think any further comment is required (though I will add “Oh!  Canada!  Excellent!”)

The Furies and I will be back)
