Thread on the Silence of SPSP.

Jews are victimized by hate crimes at a far higher rate (given their population) than all other groups, including Blacks&Asians. FBI data shown.
1/n ending in END.
What gives, Officers of and members of SPSP's Diversity Committee?
@kinglakin, @freemanjb, @jarretcrawford, @EliJFinkel, @MaddBlackProf
Those data are FBI from 2017, but its every year.

And now what you have is this:
What's the over/under on the number of days before professional academic organizations issue statements on antisemitic hate crimes in the U.S.?

Here is my pre-registered prediction:
With all due respect, until you issue such a statement, you deserve none. Respect that is.

END.
Epilogue, for the record, its not like SPSP does not issue these sorts of statements. @KinglaKing

SPSP's antiracism statement:
spsp.org/news-center/an…

SPSP's statement on anti-Asian hate:
spsp.org/news-center/an…

SPSP statement on antisemitic hate crimes and violence:
Oh, for my lay followers:
SPSP is the Society for Personality and Social Psychology, one of the main professional organizations for social and personality psychologists.

Thank you. The Orwelexicon has some...interesting...responses to critical (race, gender, sexuality, etc) theories, and the ideologically dogmatic forms of Applied Social Justice masquerading as scholarship.

"in every generation they rise up to destroy us."
From The Haggadah, the Jewish celebration of Passover, a celebration of freedom.
What does antisemitic propaganda look like?

Sometimes, like now, it looks like this. It is blunt and crude. "Hitler was right."
Sometimes, it appears more subtle. History is often a useful guide to resolve such doubts. Left, a cartoon that appeared in a Seattle paper, 2003. Right, a Nazi-era cartoon (the actual Nazis).

Deconstructing CRT Tenets as advocated by a CRT proponent:
The Whoopsie! Collection

I have taken each of several tenets, debunked them, and flagged the debunking with
"Whoopsie!"

Here, I bring them together.

There is now a fairly amusing discussion of Jewish Pirates appearing on my Tw Feed. I thread some of those replies here.

Consider signing:
"...freedom is among the essential tools by which American minorities...have made progress in advancing the causes of equality and justice.

Today...an ideology is taking hold...that insists...those who disagree must be silenced."

Jewish Institute for Liberal Values is new. This open letter is for anyone who values bedrock protections of individual human rights. Personally, I'd *especially* value nonJewish signatories -- united front against rising authoritarianism. Check out the signatories...

American Psychology Association moves towards having "positionality statements" appear on its "scientific" peer reviewed publications.
apa.org/pubs/authors/e…

What, you ask, is a "Positionality Statement"?
Its right out of CRT/intersectionality/GS/AppliedPoMo:
1/n
Actually, the statement on the left *could hypothetically* be used to reveal political biases for which there is far more evidence than "identity biases" (worldviews).

But the emphasis is on identity.
Who wants to take me up on this bet:

APA won't include political/ideological affiliations, "positions" or identities as part of "positionality" statements anytime in the next 2 years.

Stakes: An embarrassing pinned tweet declaring the loser to be a clueless ax-grinding fool.
