What grabbed us about this issue...
Issue 12 stays close to the human cost of disinformation rather than the mechanics of it. We kept coming back to the diary of a Ukrainian troll hunter. It's a detail that makes the abstract feel very specific. The piece about falling in love with a conspiracy theorist is also worth a look. It's a quieter way into the subject and probably the more unsettling read for it.
Who's Are We Europe for?
Are We Europe is one for when you want to understand the continent through its people rather than its politics. Each issue takes a single theme as its starting point, using it as a lens rather than a subject. You can tell this is made by people genuinely frustrated with the way European stories usually get told. The writing is lively and personal, contributed by writers and illustrators based across the continent. This would suit you if you enjoy long-form journalism with a strong point of view. Think of it as an alternative European press, shaped by the generation living through the story. It's one to reach for when you want to be surprised by something closer to home than you expected.
