Get a grip
This is absolutely a parody of a liberal group therapy session, right? nymag.com/intelligencer/…

I can't believe they lived up to the stereotype.
lmao. "I dunno man, but I read this thing in the Guardian and I don't know if it's true but"
"Chomsky," drink!
hold me
missing the good old days when the Arab states could threaten Israel
Bibi is global warming
How they end the discussion: Hoping antisemitism will persist and the tide of Jew-hatred will wash away these tanned Jewish he-men
So in sum: the "ray of hope" after Bibi's win, according to this group at New York Magazine, is that people will continue to hate and try to murder Jews. Folks.

1. So this talking point about Bibi killing the two state solution is really catching on. Put aside whether 2SS is actually, fully “dead” for now. What’s interesting is that the lack of progress on 2SS is spurring this. And that’s a relatively new development.
2. The “Oslo” process, as we know it, began with Madrid under George HW Bush. And since then, Obama was the first US president to preside over zero forward motion on the 2SS. And while Bibi isn’t blameless, it’s hard to pin this on the “right wing” bogeymen we’re to.
3. The process has made progress through every combination of right-left US-Israel govts:

GOP prez & RW PM: HW/Shamir; GWB/Sharon

Dem prez & left PM: Clinton/Rabin; Clinton/Barak

GOP & left: HW/Rabin

Dem & right PM: Clinton/Bibi

The dirty not-so-secret of US politics is that Dems want Bibi because Gantz's policies will be the same but he won't grate, so they'll lose the easy out they have now with base activists, which is to just say it's about Big Bad Bibi. (This is a replay of Carter's team & Begin.)
For example, here's Brzezinski:
Here's William Quandt:

Massively important piece on the utter emptiness of ‘expert’ comment and condemnation on the Golan tabletmag.com/jewish-news-an…
The collapse of the popular narrative on Jerusalem, the Golan, the embassy, the Israel-Sunni rapprochement et al should mean a complete root-and-branch reformation in American media and academia’s approach to the Mideast, built on the ruins of the ‘experts’ disastrous ignorance.
The people asked for comment on Israel-related news should change: any reporter who goes back to the same Rolodex as before is not interested in the truth or informing their audience. It is sheer propaganda.

nymag.com/intelligencer/… What I can’t get past with Boghossian and his jackass crew is this: They have an obsessive hatred of academic fields that a) don’t involve them b) never did anything to hurt them and c) they could simply ignore if they wanted to. And yet….
Boghossian is so filled with spite and hate for departments that have nothing to do with him that he and his buddies concocted a spiteful hoax meant only to humiliate people that, I cannot reiterate enough, did nothing to him. Despite all this….
Boghossian has the nerve to accuse anyone else of “grievance studies”. Let’s be clear: Someone in this situation has a ridiculous grievance they shouldn’t have that they are wasting their life away on. It’s Boghossian.

nymag.com/intelligencer/… I don’t know why there’s still so much unwillingness to even accept the possibility that Trump is simply working for Putin.

On the contrary, I’d say it’s the only explanation that really makes sense.
Again, as @maddow pointed out last night, Trump has a long habit of parroting downright obscure talking points that come straight from Putin, often referencing countries he probably didn’t even know existed.
And, as Chait himself notes, this comes right as Russia is about to declare they were always right to invade Afghanistan.

And Trump has already been caught trying to backchannel with Putin:

The SJWs Are Winning and You're All Just Going to Have to Deal With It: A thread.
Reading this @JohnHMcWhorter piece is an exercise in vertigo. The central claim is that "third wave anti-racism" (i.e. the broad nexus of PC, social justice, and ID politics) is doomed to failure. That the aims are good, but strategically it's a dead end.

theatlantic.com/ideas/archive/…
This is a common view among centrist liberals and libertarians: "Yes, racism and sexism are serious problems and must be addressed, but the SJW Left is going about it all wrong. In fact, its tactics are actually making these problems worse, not better."

Why does Twitter deliberately target Right-wing accounts for Shadow-banning and why it will sooner rather than later completely back-fire and why they are ultimately going to destroy the Left and what a great day that will be. Thread. 1/15
It is no surprise Twitter targets accounts for “wrong think” or as we on the #Right like to call it “free-think” this is because of two events which are now totally and utterly inextricably linked, #Brexit and #Trump and the Establishment have been rocked to the core. 2/15
Neither of which were supposed to happen & yet they did now the Establishment is determined never to allow it to happen again or even at all, the reason for them happening was nothing to do with social media, but was to do with people knocking on doors and persuading others. 3/15

THREAD: Are you excited about @Ocasio2018's overwhelming victory tonight?

Good. You should be.

Now here's what you do next.

⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️
The first thing I need you to understand is that @Ocasio2018 didn't win because of a viral campaign ad (though it was a pretty kickass ad). She won because a tiny band of fiercely dedicated people BELIEVED she could win.

That's your first task: #Believe
.@Ocasio2018 also didn't crush Crowley because the establishment media suddenly decided to pay attention 3 weeks ago.

Team Ocasio, along with @BrandNew535 & @justicedems who jointly launched her campaign, have worked around the clock to make this, and other victories possible.

A thread about the current year of the virtue-signaller, peak political correctness and hopefully the beginning of the end of the cultural Marxist because of it and the rise of the intellectual dark web. 1/10
We are now living in a time where people can lose their job over a difference of opinion, have their lives destroyed because of who they want to vote for and the #Liberal #MSM in the UK and in the USA lie so blatantly in order to push their agendas through. 2/10
However, it is no longer just the #MSM who lie to virtue-signal to advance a narrative people like @dpakman a pseudo-intellectual deliberately lied to his audience about MS-13 – he should be ashamed of himself, but because he is a liberal, he has no shame. 3/10
