LonerBox responds to Noah Samsen and SoyPill selective framing of the Israel-Palestine conflict:
"Imagine you're watching two guys having a fucking street fight, but as a spectator, you can only see one side. The other person is invisible. If one person is erased from the situation, the other person looks fucking insane, like some weirdo flailing around aimlessly."
"That's how the Israel-Palestine conflict is viewed in the West. Israel is the only side people see doing things, while Hamas, armed groups, and the political discourse on the Palestinian side are completely ignored."
"You'll hear crazy shit from both sides, but people will cherry-pick the most extreme Israeli interviews and present those as representative of the entire conflict, while completely ignoring the other half."
"If you do that, Israel starts looking like some quasi-Nazi state that's bombing houses and destroying Gaza for absolutely no reason. And if that's the only perspective you're exposed to, why would you ever have a nuanced opinion about Israel?"
Hutch, Dan Saltman, and LonerBox on Hasan celebrating Ethan Klein's divorce:
"I've never seen someone so happy that two people are getting divorced. That's actually fucking crazy how much he's trying to milk that."
"It's really a vindication of their politics. They're treating it like a vindication of their political strategy."
"Judge me by my enemies. Bro, your friends are terrorists."
LonerBox, Hutch, and Dan Saltman responding to SoyPill claiming the 2025 Capital Jewish Museum shooting wasn't antisemitic:
"Trying to argue that the shooter at the Jewish Museum wasn't antisemitic... this does seem like a very silly thing to argue about. I don't know why you would go on this. That seems like such a weird hill to die on."
"It's the same argument that people would make for, like, what's this attack on a mosque Islamophobic? And everyone's like, yeah, but then one right winger says, well, actually there was one preacher at that mosque who's very pro ISIS."
"I guarantee you he didn't know who these people were as they walked out. He probably just, like, saw them. Maybe I don't know if the dude was wearing a yarmulke or not, but there was obviously something identifiable. And he went after it."
"So unless he knew, like, oh yes, these are the people that are in charge of policy..."
"What other national group are you doing this to? Like, are you, like, why is this person not looking for fucking Saudi nationals running around America and shooting them for their actions in Yemen?"
"But I guess you wouldn't do that. No one would ever do that."
