Leftists are extremely good at policing their own when it comes to stuff like mildly humanizing Israelis in a magazine article. They know how to instantly condemn and ostracize. They can't muster the same condemnation for frothing antisemites because they're not that bothered.

@Bad_bureaucrat Moi quand je suis l'enfant de la revolution: « ohohohoh c'est super »
Moi quand la revolution commence à dévorer ses enfants: « sacré bleu, c'est merde »

Jewish people will really be like "on all other nights we eat sitting or reclining, on this night we all recline" and then not recline

בעקבות הסנקציות: בעת ניסיון תשלום בכרטיס אשראי בתחנת דלק לפני שעה קלה, קיבל בנצי גופשטיין מסרון עם הודעה שכרטיסו נחסם עקב הסנקציות.

If I was fighting a civil war against nazis I would rather have democratic legitimacy and as much of the machinery of the state on my side and not on the side of the nazis, but what do I know, I'm not an edgy twitter poaster, I just have more than two working brain cells

@pschofie79 @LittleMammith Isn't it pretty much the same as Erasmus explaining the possibility of free will considering God's foreknowledge of all things with the analogy that the astronomer can calculate in advance the exact date of an eclipse but he doesn't cause the eclipse?

@ASPertierra Does an 'Oriental Despotism mode' involve squatting into a prostrated position? That must be a killer

אני חייב ממה שלקחו החברה באגד שהחליטו לעשות את הפרסומת הזו

@PYMundGenealogy Exactly, my point is that it is healthy to cringe when you say "shpoch chamtcha", but one should say it nonetheless

[Arie Neuhauser @ArieNeuhauser]

@PYMundGenealogy Are there parts of the Jewish tradition that are, as the kids say, "problematic"? Of course, but there is nothing less Jewish than trying to purge the problematic away instead of acknowledging the difficulties and contradictions in one's beliefs and traditions

@arash_tehran The word "דרדל'ה" is most commonly used for weak kicks at the goal in football, finding it at the center of global geopolitical discussion is hilarious

[Arie Neuhauser @ArieNeuhauser]

The wicked son what does he say? "What is this service to you?" To you, and not to him. And since he sets himself apart from the community he denies the fundamentals. And you must blunt his teeth and tell him "For me" and not for him; were he there he would not have been redeemed

[Arie Neuhauser @ArieNeuhauser]

@arash_tehran Peru has a literal indigenous nazi party, and there is no reason to infantilize them by assuming that they don't really understand what they advocate for and that their fascism is in any sense less 'organic' than European fascism

[Arie Neuhauser @ArieNeuhauser]

@_glorianas Yes because I read The Three Musketeers, it's a main plot point

[Arie Neuhauser @ArieNeuhauser]

Thesis: Ashkenazis are of Levantine origins
Antithesis: Ashkenazis are Khazars
Synthesis: The Khazars were the original inhabitants of the Levant

[Stew Peters @realstewpeters]

Funny how this lines up EXACTLY with the Roman’s physical description of Jesus.

@KarnesMellagio no way you're as good at Ancient Greek as Enoch Powell was

@yungneocon Pleny of lefty/lib grifters but they usually just do it for online attention, the money is in the right wing grift

@shlumpsters idk if this is too mean, but I have yet to have heard of a single person who identifies as an Arab-Jew and doesn't base their career and livelihood on their identity as an Arab-Jew

[Arie Neuhauser @ArieNeuhauser]

"average Byzantine was Hitlerian" is just a statistical error. average Byzantine committed 0 pogroms per year. Nikon the Metanoeite, who lived in Hitleropolis and committed over 10,000 pogroms each day, is an outlier and should not have been counted

[Arie Neuhauser @ArieNeuhauser]

@evilrobertmoses But note that this relationship between the Old and New Testaments has been explicitly in those terms in Christian exegesis since the beginning, and in some way can already be found in the NT itself. Auerbach's contribution was to notice its importance for lit. more broadly
