Normal person: Genocide is bad.

Israel supporter: Just say you hate Jews.

Normal person: I oppose Zionism.

Israel supporter: Jews. You mean Jews. Say Jews.

Normal person: The Israel lobby is causing problems.

Israel supporter: Jews Jews Jews Jews Jewy Jew Jews.

Normal person: But I don't mean Jews. I'm expressing specific grievances against a specific state, its backers, and the political ideology it is premised upon. I judge people based on their individual actions, not on their religion.

Israel supporter: JEWWWWWWS.

Normal person: You realize you're doing the exact same thing neo-Nazis do, right? You're conflating all Jews with everything bad about Israel and the forces which give rise to its abuses.

Israel supporter: It is antisemitic to conflate all Jews with the actions of Israel.

Normal person: Then why do you keep conflating all Jews with the actions of Israel?

Israel supporter: Because it is antisemitic not to conflate all Jews with the actions of Israel.

At 55 yo with 30 years of mental illness i am biostatistically dead. Any health industry flagging of wellbeing is arguably a phantasmal illusion, an existential flagons' salutary cheer and froth for all i care of its ideology. Just joy in face of iatrogenic murder by numbers

[Yanis Varoufakis @yanisvaroufakis]

Hello, this is Yanis Varoufakis with a piece of news that would have been hilarious if it weren’t so scary. This morning, two policemen appeared on my doorstep to serve a summons ordering me to the police headquarters to be interrogated by the Greek DEA, our drug busting police department. Not as a witness, expert or not, but as the accused. Accused of what?

Shortly after New Year’s, I appeared on a podcast organised by young people to answer their questions on everything that concerns Gen Z today: social media, the meaning of life, their job prospects, what I call technofeudalism etc. At some point, they asked me if I had ever used drugs. Determined not to do a Bill Clinton (remember the laughable “I didn’t inhale”?), I said I had. Apart from pot, I told them, I had one experience of taking ecstasy in Sydney 36 years ago. It was pleasant, I danced for 16 hours effortlessly but then, I added, it gave me a migraine for a week – and so I never used again. That was my introduction to making the point that, however pleasant drug taking may seem, there is a price to pay. And that the ultimate price is dependence, addiction – “the end of liberty”, I said emphatically.

Do you see where this is going? Yes, the Greek police have opened an investigation of me under the charge of... aiding and abetting the narco-mafia. [Do me a favour folks: Please don’t tell Trump, OK?]

Seriously now, at a time of war, genocide, stupendous exploitation and so on, my little trouble with the inane Greek police is neither here nor there. But it is important. Here, in Europe, many people still live under the illusion that we have liberty, rationality and freedom. We don’t. Dark forces are at work, pushing us into a postmodern version of the Dark Ages.

So, beware, people! They are out to take away the last remnants of autonomy and freedom we have left. Resistance is, literally, existence.

I have just reported #Babet to the AFP as a fixated person who is delusional and paranoid. He has a history of violence and criminal damage. I suggest Victorians report him to crime stoppers. He needs an assessment
