David Hall

I am an independent international relations (IR) researcher and satirist. My accounts are used for personal academic and creative purposes to explore IR. This is done in many ways, including through comedy/satire because of the clever meaning it can convey about human nature, which I believe could be the main driver of IR outcomes. I look forward to engaging on these platforms to traverse ideas and progress humanity! Below is a summary of my accounts: X - Casual interacting with random IR thoughts and analysis - Daily posts regarding what happened today in IR history - Friday memes and GIFs - IR opinion articles in the style of newspaper columnist writing Instagram - Creative IR related posts - Daily analysis stories from various sources Substack - Deep dive into IR topics in the style of academic writing “Comedy is simply a funny way of being serious.” —Peter Ustinov Profile picture credit: Rebecca Jade (@rjadephotography) / Instagram
