Critical Rationalist. Skeptic. My features form with a change in the weather. I ❤️Pyrrho, Spinoza, Hume, Schopenhauer, Popper. And above all, Hermann Hesse.
@sndurlauf@sapinker He didn’t criticize sociology qua sociology. He criticized a contingent within the discipline whom are muddying the field with activism and postmodern ideals that hinder sociological inquiry and render empirical study meaningless.
It's not just cultural anthropology: The politicization and postmodern obscurantism of the field of sociology is running the discipline into the ground (though some those quoted in the article - al Gharbi, Redstone, McAffree -- are fabulous). | The study of people has a people problem. https://t.co/rt76FnaAQO via @WSJ
In today's post, I argue that the DSA isn't noticeably better than Trump. Its economic policies are similar but even worse. Its foreign policy positions are similar (except on Israel). And on cultural issues it's just as crazy.

@MsDayglo@art_nick@BoyGeorge@DUALIPA One “side” hides behind civilian infrastructure, putting their own people in harm’s way, enlists child militants as soldiers, and relishes in the death of their own in order to exploit the other side and win the sympathies of naive people like you.
@0O00O0O0O0@Molly85224872@shadihamid@MazMHussain Those people are Neturei Karta Jews; they oppose the State of Israel based on a theological belief that Jews are divinely commanded to remain exiled until the messiah comes. They don’t practice the same kind of racism that your antizionism involves, though they do inflame it.
@Molly85224872@shadihamid@MazMHussain No, antizionism is a hate movement. If that’s “respectable” to you, then you are a neo-Nazi. It doesn’t equal antisemitism. Antisemitism casts Jews as an “other” race. Antizionism is a more recent anti-Jewish hate movement that attacks Israel and casts Jews as “hyper-white.”
@BoyGeorge@Bandcamp Just to let others know, I went through bandcamp’s messaging system and requested a refund, and while they haven’t responded, it looks like there might be a pending refund on my cc statement.
@AJsaysOK@Eve_Barlow No, you bigoted asshat, I’m calling you out for your antizionist racism. You are actually being antisemitic when you map your hate into me.
@BoyGeorge I purchased the track on bandcamp. I downloaded it, but I would like to make sure that you were compensated before they removed it. Otherwise, I’ll do a chargeback and buy it again here.
@MileticOli42114@MisterMarilyn@BoyGeorge No, you ignorant fucking idiot, when you call Jews “terrorists” and claim that they “run our corporate and banking systems”, you are actually engaging in Nazi libel. You’re a racist loser.
@AkaLazarus@PounderJane1@BoyGeorge Done! I hope other artists will follow George’s lead and pave the way to peace, resist the popular racist antizionist narrative and stand up for truth! Thank you @BoyGeorge !
