Great discussion! Thanks @jmk37 for having me and @edsim & @WSummerlinAI for the great conversation.

Had a blast continuing convo on agentic diffusion in F500 w/@jmk37 CTO of McKinsey, @WSummerlinAI @DHFrankenstein

We all know that the last mile in the enterprise is the longest, but when labs/vendors send FDEs who owns the learnings? Easy button vs. own thy evals?

Last year saw the highest level of deadly violence against Jews around the world in over three decades, with 20 people killed in antisemitic attacks, according to an annual study released by Tel Aviv University. https://t.co/XzgKxr3Of1

I’m so fucking sick of snark from people on here because I talk about Jew hatred a lot.

First, those who have followed me for a while know this has been a focus of mine for more than 10 years — it’s not something I suddenly picked up post–October 7.

My focus is largely on extremism, particularly in America, not on Israel, although I fully understand there’s crossover.

Second, people who say my focus on this is cringe, annoying, or stupid either don’t understand how serious this problem is — or they’re Jew haters themselves.

This is an urgent matter.

I wouldn’t spend this much time on it if it weren’t.

And despite what some people online seem to believe, it certainly isn’t lucrative or helpful to my career.

We know from decades of research that once someone adopts a fully developed antisemitic worldview, it becomes very, very difficult to deradicalize them — though not impossible.

I don’t want to lose more people to the abyss of Jew hatred.

As far as I’m concerned, this is existential.

When hatred of Jews becomes part of someone’s identity and worldview, it shapes how they understand everything: politics, morality, and even their sense of belonging.

Antisemitism operates differently from many other forms of hatred because it is conspiratorial in nature rather than simply prejudicial.

Conspiracy beliefs are self-sealing: evidence against them is interpreted as proof of the conspiracy itself.

People who adopt strong antisemitic views often move into social ecosystems that reinforce those beliefs: online communities, ideological networks, and political movements.

Antisemites also see their hatred as morally justified.

In their minds, they are defending civilization, fighting corruption, exposing hidden evil, and, as many of you learned recently, exposing child-killing pedophiles.

Once hatred becomes framed as a moral duty, deradicalization becomes far more difficult.

Antisemitism also “explains” everything to the Jew hater.

Because Jews are falsely framed as the hidden cause behind many unrelated problems, Jews become the grand explanatory theory for the world’s failures and for the failures and challenges people have personally.

People who criticize me or mock me ultimately don’t bother me.

But it is deeply annoying and concerning — particularly because they cannot even claim that I spend my time advocating for Israel or defending the decisions of the Israeli government.

So their issue is with Jews.

Ultimately, if you have a problem with me talking about this, you can kiss my Iranian ass.

One has to wonder if remaining Iranian regime officials considered that by waging an assault on Arab Gulf States (who HAD previously vowed to sit out of the conflict UNTIL they were attacked) they'd likely be forgoing any post-conflict safe refuge in those very States (interlocutors Oman & Qatar stunningly included). Where will these ex-officials run to if the regime is toppled? Will these Gulf States have a short term memory? Or will this burn any egress / bridge they could have crossed.

This makes me so happy. As a native San Franciscan and an early supporter of @DanielLurie - I love this. Safety first. Period. This is the future of city governance. I hope NYC is watching...

[Daniel Lurie 丹尼爾·羅偉 @DanielLurie]

In San Francisco, we are focused on delivering results for the people who live, work, and visit our amazing city. That's what I told everyone on The Pat McAfee Show, and that's what I tell San Franciscans every day. 

This Super Bowl week, San Francisco is showing the world that we are a city on the rise.

[Daniel Frankenstein @DHFrankenstein]

I've lived in NYC for 10 years. I've never seen such incompetence:
- Overhearing city workers not knowing what to do
- People unable to go to work b/c their cars have been snowed in for a week
- A disabled person unable to get to their home b/c of trash &ice
- TRASH everywhere🤮

[The Wall Street Journal @WSJ]

From @WSJFreeEx via @WSJOpinion: I can’t help but notice that the “Free Palestine” crowd seems to have zero interest in freeing Iran. Maybe it wasn’t about peace and human rights at all, writes @johnondrasik.

It’s actually illegal. So what will you do @NewYorkStateAG ?

[NY AG James @NewYorkStateAG]

Hamas is a terrorist organization.

We do not support terrorists.

Period.

[Daniel Frankenstein @DHFrankenstein]

For those who care about facts - and a vicious campaign on the truth via our sources of information - this is a critical thread.

We have a war on truth and "activists" quite literally rewriting history to support a narrative. It's dangerous.

THIS is how you respond to vile and blatant Antisemitism. Our Mayor-elect has A LOT to learn.

Thank you, @NYCMayor

[Mayor Zohran Kwame Mamdani @NYCMayor]

What happened at @PESynagogue last night was totally unacceptable no matter your faith or background. This type of protest and vile language should concern us all. When you desecrate one house of worship, you desecrate them all. I'll be visiting Park East Synagogue to stand with our Jewish community when I am back in town.

[Daniel Frankenstein @DHFrankenstein]

Unfortunately - for many Western Liberals - it was never about Palestine. It has always been about hating the Jews. These moments make that clear.

[Ahmed Al-Khalidi @khalidi79397]

As a Palestinian who openly opposes Hamas and rejects the glorified myths our society keeps repeating, I can’t stay silent about the sheer hypocrisy I see from many Western liberals.

How can you defend a movement that executes its own people, by shooting them in the street, without trial, for merely disagreeing or being labeled “collaborators”? How can you call that “resistance” while those very scenes mirror the barbarism you’d condemn anywhere else in the world?

You claim to stand for liberal values, for human rights, for justice. But your empathy collapses when the victims are Palestinians murdered by other Palestinians, when it doesn’t fit the neat narrative of oppressor and oppressed.

What does that say about your values, really?
If you can overlook public executions and rule by terror just because the perpetrators shout “liberation,” then maybe your solidarity isn’t rooted in morality but in ideology.

[Daniel Frankenstein @DHFrankenstein]

Days like today show us who people truly are.

Believe what you see.

[MS NOW Reports @MSNOW_Reports]

All of the living hostages being held by Hamas are now in Israel. Also, President Trump is attending a Middle East peace summit in Egypt.

[NewsNation @NewsNation]

"It was never about Gaza ... it was about the Jews," NewsNation's @LelandVittert says, noting the lack of celebration from pro-Palestinian protesters once a peace deal was struck between Israel and Hamas. “Where are those protesters now?"
