OMG
#TimothySnyder left the country for #Canada
Yale philosophy professor Jason Stanley, along with Yale history professors Marci Shore & her husband Timothy Snyder, are taking their teaching to the University of Toronto to advocate for #democracy, speak out against #fascism & teach without fear of #academic capitulation to the #Trump White House, they say.

As the #Trump admin escalates its attack on universities, three #fascism scholars & vocal Trump critics are leaving Yale University for the University of Toronto. But their given reasons for crossing the border vary.

Is it too soon to say #BrainDrain?
@FinchHaven @Nonilex As a Canadian, happy to see the brains draining North. We could use more medical professionals...
@Nonilex We need the fascism scholars to remain here and help us figure out a way forward. Kinda pissed TBH.
I mean I get it, Trump hates Snyder, he could be in real danger, & he’ll continue writing & consulting.
