Suicidal empathy: the tendency to deliberately negate your natural own-group bias and vote for and doing everything in your power to facilitate your own demise
Homicidal empathy: the application of suicidal empathy that leads to the death of others/destruction of your own group
A slur doesn't stop being a slur because teenagers started using it. Today's @nytimes "On Language" column treats the antisemitic slur "goyslop" as a fun linguistic curiosity rather than what it is: a term rooted in white supremacist conspiracy theories.
Normalizing this kind of language is dangerous. "Goyslop" is not just edgy slang. It combines "goy," the Hebrew word that colloquially refers to non-Jews, with "slop" to promote a conspiracy theory that Jewish people deliberately poison non-Jews with cheap food to keep them docile. It was coined and spread by antisemites and white supremacists. No amount of teenage adoption changes that origin.
Such terms spread negative stereotypes and conspiracy theories. Their normalization is exactly what the bigots who coined them aspire to. A bit more on this here: https://t.co/eHiz3qmayF

Naftali, words matter.
And Ben Gvir's words were literally that a thousand Lebanese mothers must weep for every tear of an Israeli mother, and that all of Lebanon must burn.
He wants to kill 1000x and burn an entire country.
So, suddenly words don't matter anymore?
Piers, words matter.
There is a war. There is no genocide.
The IDF warns civilians before strikes, drops leaflets, makes phone calls, sends text messages, and opens evacuation routes.
Can you name a single genocide in history where the attacking side repeatedly warned civilians to leave before military operations?
This weekend alone, we lost five of our boys fighting Hezbollah face-to-face on the ground. If Israel’s goal were to kill Lebanese civilians indiscriminately, why would we risk our own troops instead of simply carpet-bombing entire areas?
You’re smart and you know this.
As for Ben Gvir: you’re citing the wrong person.
I already told you he’s a clown. A noisy and incompetent clown.
I would never have let him into my government, nor should Bibi have.
Soon we’ll be replacing this miserable government.
Ben Gvir insisted on rebranding himself as “National Security Minister” because he liked the dramatic title.
In reality, he oversees the police. He doesn’t command the IDF, doesn’t formulate military strategy, and doesn’t make operational decisions in Lebanon.
Quoting Ben Gvir to explain Israeli military policy is like quoting a loud backbencher to explain Britain’s war strategy.
Israel’s actions are determined by its government and carried out by the IDF in accordance with international law.
Democratic Socialists and socialism in general have higher ratings than congressional Democrats and capitalism respectively.
Capitalism is distinctly supported by White voters.

🚨 DSA’s top leadership just adopted a platform calling to abolish the Senate, replace the president and Supreme Court, abolish the “carceral forces” of the state, grant amnesty to all illegal immigrants, and that is just the tip of the iceberg.
My latest for @CityJournal!
Kamala: “There is some real shaking up that we have to do of the rules and the structure.”
Q: “Does that get rid of the Electoral College?”
Kamala: “I don't think we should eliminate that as a point of discussion for potential action.”

@Refugees Then why do so many not stay in the first safe country they encounter, but instead end up in wealthier countries where they can receive countless benefits on local taxpayers' dime?
1. Africans enslaved their own and sold them to Europeans
2. Europeans fought to end slavery in Africa
3. There is still slavery in modern day Africa
4. Europeans were enslaved too
5. Apologies have been made several times.
6. Africa has already received over a trillion USD
