Thanks to @moyurireads (Author of "Is your fav author a Zionist?") we have a wonderful purchase list for authors who are not openly antagonistic to Israel

Take a stroll through this thread and see what you might want to add to your reading list: 🧵
We'll start with the big ones.

Brandon Sanderson (@BrandSanderson) is here for the crimes of not believing in boycotts and "visiting Israel despite people asking him not to"

He's written dozens of great fantasy novels, including the Stormlight Archive

amzn.to/4btF5O0
British author @jk_rowling is on the list, having been "pro-Israel for a while and also a terf"

Hard to explain who she is in the space of a tweet but I'm going to link to her debut novel as way of trying to raise her profile

amzn.to/3JTv40M
I've really enjoyed @BillWillingham's work. He's the author of the Fables graphic novel series, which I adore.

Be warned, he once posted a "very pro-Israel tweet"

amzn.to/4acUWiT
Gabrielle Zevin is the winner of the Goodreads "Best Fiction" award for her novel "Tomorrow and Tomorrow and Tomorrow"

She once wrote a "character in her book also a zionist lowkey"

amzn.to/44z0Idm
The author of House of Beating Wings is Olivia Wildenstein

Working in the genre of "romantasy", she spends her free time "blocking users who disagree with her pro-Israel stance"

amzn.to/3QDxxAg
Chloe Walsh writes the romance series "Boys of Tommen" and has "worked with an Israeli publisher"

amzn.to/3JW6D2Q
Rochelle Weinstein's debut novel "This Is Not How It Ends" is a USA Today bestseller. You can get her latest piece on music and love, "What You Do To Me"

She has posted not one but "multiple pro-Israel statements"

amzn.to/4bcPUnP
Nic Stone (@getnicced) writes the NYT bestselling Dear Martin series, which delves into race relations in the US

She has talked about her travels to Israel, which apparently now a crime

Honestly, this book looks fascinating & I'm buying it myself

amzn.to/44RE7ct
Allison Winn Scotch is the NYT bestselling author of Cleo McDougal Regrets Nothing a political novel about truth and consequences

She "only talks about Hamas when discussing Palestine"

amzn.to/3wtbW6G
Jill Santopolo wrote The Light We Lost, a novel about star-crossed lovers and their life-altering choice

Looks heartbreaking, I'm buying it

I kid you not, she is on this list for posting "a neutral statement erring towards Israel"

amzn.to/4b7T0JK
Rena Rossner wrote The Sisters of the Winter Wood, a fantasy novel that draws in themes of Jewish identity and sisterhood

Rena's crime is that she lives in Israel

amzn.to/3JZUppG
Taylor Jenkins Reid wrote Daisy Jones & The Six, which looks like a wild ride through the sex and drugs music scene of the 60's

It is also an Amazon Original series, which looks like fun

To my horror, she "equated being from Israel as being Jewish"

amzn.to/4bxPl7M
Annabel Monaghan is the author of Nora Goes Off Script, a romance novel about a screenwriter and her chance encounter with her leading man

Annabel once "created a pro Israel Instagram post with no mention of Palestine" which I'm pretty sure is illegal

amazon.com/Nora-Goes-Scri…
Emily St John Mandel wrote "Station Eleven" (a National Book Award finalist). It is a science fiction novel set in the late stages of civilizational collapse

But she has also "travelled to Israel and talks favorably about it"

amazon.com/Station-Eleven…
Sarah J Mass is a NYT bestselling author of multiple fantasy series, the most popular being A Court of Thorns and Roses

Her crime is that she is Jewish and described her birthright experience as "magical"

I'll say this again:

This is a DIRECT consequence of the fact that people let the severe Covid restrictions come and go with zero consequences

Covid taught authority figures that they can treat the people under their authority like trash and they will simply accept it
Students: If you don't like this kind of treatment, you have to show that you reject it. You have to go to a different school, move to a different state, vote a different way.
I'm not even saying "vote for Republicans", find a Democrat (if you can) who will make it clear that they will condemn and punish schools or businesses that reject your dignity this way

A friend of mine died today

He was too young to die. His kids were exactly the age of my kids, they played together and loved each other.

He was fine last week, looking forward to Christmas with his family

Now he is gone
I've had a peculiar life but generally speaking, the possibilities of life grew in scope throughout my 20's and well into my 30's

I had a serious speed bump when I was unemployed for a time, but generally things seemed on the up-and-up until, in my late 30's, my dad passed away
dad was in his early 60's

Took care of himself, he just got unlucky with a rare form of cancer. But that was the first time the world really closed on me.

I always wanted to travel with him, to enjoy the world together

The future was a little bit narrower with him gone

The community note here is really fascinating b/c it exposes one of the strategies @PolitiFact uses to deceive its readers:

They routinely reframe the context of the "fact" in question so that they can claim that their team is honest or the other team is dishonest Image
What most likely happened is that Newsom was given a talking point by his debate team and he just flat-out forgot that the details of the fact mattered

He internalized what he was supposed to say but he's not a careful enough person to get the details correct
This is extraordinarily common among left-leaning elites

The positions no longer select for the diligent, intelligent, and careful. They select for those willing to confidently barf out partisan talking points, even if they are inaccurate

This is going to end up being the most easily preventable crisis in the history of American health policy

"experts" and politicians thought they could bully people into the Covid vaccine and ended up poisoning the incredibly hard-won cultural victories for childhood vaccines
They were warned. We were begging them not to do this. The consequences were not just obvious, we had seen exactly this thing happen 150 years ago with exactly the same result.

Evil, stupid people portraying themselves as saviors

DA Henderson (who eradicated smallpox) wrote:

"efforts to make vaccination compulsory inevitably generated a wave of antivaccinationist sentiment"

This was in the context of epidemics in the late 1800's

On "cancel culture":

Yesterday, they crushed @KyleKashuv's Harvard career b/c some shit leaked private messages from when he was 15

Today, they are begging for mercy b/c Harvard law students publicly celebrated the largest Jewish genocide since the Nazis

Tomorrow, they will cheer the firing of a mildly right-of-center student or professor for suggesting that trans ideology is a social contagion (which it obviously is)

Every "oh no, this is cancel culture" appeal is not honest. All they want is you to pause long enough that they can get away with it.

They will not reciprocate. They will never give you quarter or kindness. They will beg on their knees for mercy and the very second you grant it, they will stick a knife in your child and laugh at the stupidity of the grace you showed them.
fuck them. When the political winds change, you should absolutely take the opportunity to fuck them.

You asked to be left alone and they tried to fire you.

They celebrated the murder of children and now, realizing their folly, they are begging for mercy

No. No mercy for people who laugh at dead children. Their remorse is driven entirely b/c, after laughing and mocking the dead, they saw their boss look at them weird and they realized they crossed a line.
the lesson they are learning now is that manipulating the right by mimicking their ideological standards with the stupidest analogies is

1) a lot of fun
2) a great way to get away with celebrating genocide so that you can later cancel a teenager for singing a rap song

When the final history on the decline in institutional trust is written, there should be a chapter on Obamacare

We were subject to 2 years of fact-checks, expert opinions, and projections and they were all bullshit

Obamacare changed nothing, made nothing better

Healthcare continued to get more expensive, none of the things it was supposed to fix got fixed
"It's gonna bend the cost curve, here's my model that assumes this is true that proves that it will work"

shut up, nerd. go talk to a real person for 5 minutes
For those who are curious, insurance premium rate increases in the 5 years before Obamacare averaged 4.8% yearly increase

In the 5 years after Obamacare, it was 4.9% yearly increase Image
