It was a pleasure to write this review of @chouliaraki_l’s brilliant new book Wronged: The Weaponization of Victimhood for @EJCS_Journal.

💥New! Rioters, far right activists, and Elon Musk, have been propagating the idea of “two-tier policing”. @chouliaraki_l and @kat_hig argue that this claim gets things backwards, and identify this as a communication strategy of reverse victimization.View quoted post on X
