.@joerogan saying “the idea that Jewish people are not into money is ridiculous. That’s like saying Italians aren’t into pizza” would make sense if Jews invented money and/or Italians had been massacred because of a conspiracy that they control the world through pizza. Then — and this is the crucial point — the conversation immediately pivots to Israel policy, and @krystalball’s grinning defense of Ilhan Omar.

So...are we talking about Jews or Israel? Joe Rogan is talking about Jews. Krystal Ball is trying to talk about Israel. Which is it?

🧵 Political opportunism while responding to *some* antisemitism is one of the foundational pillars of contemporary modern antisemitism.

In simple terms, it keeps it alive.

Joe Biden (or his social media intern) is tweeting out not against Kanye West, but against Donald Trump.

https://twitter.com/POTUS/status/1598714500286406657

If Joe Biden genuinely cared about antisemitism, then he would have unequivocally rejected Ilhan Omar, Rashida Tlaib, Al Sharpton, etc. etc.

He only cares because Donald Trump elevated Kanye West in the political world by opening his doors to him and his parasitic “advisers.”

What Donald Trump’s ban and return really shows is the need for @elonmusk to develop concrete policies with consistent enforcement.

If that’s free speech absolutism, awesome.

If it’s something else, that’s fine, as long as the rules are out in the open and the same for all. @elonmusk The root of the collapse in public “trust” (for lack of a better term) in social media has never been policy-related (even though they’re often terrible), but the laughably partisan enforcement or non-enforcement while Big Tech gaslit their user base with promises of objectivity.

🧵 THREAD 🧵 If you’re wondering how crazy San Francisco has become, look no further than their GIFT program: Guaranteed Income for Transgender People.

In other words, giving trans people in San Francisco $1,200 a month. The program supposedly exists to “provide economically marginalized transgender people with unrestricted, monthly guaranteed income as a way to combat poverty our most impacted community members face.”

Here’s Kanye West announcing he was moving his money from JP Morgan…a full month ago.

You’re being played. This video is easy to find on YouTube, and yet everyone ran with the conspiracy theory that Kanye was being canceled by JP Morgan in response to his tweets…with some pushing the idea that this was proof Jews control the banking world.

Oops.

We are witnessing anti-anti-Semitism conservatives brushing anti-Semitism under the rug in exchange for cash and clicks.

It's not the first time, and it won't be the last time.

If you're a Jew, these are terrifying times.

The brutal reality? No-one gives a fuck about us There is truly no political home for Jews in the United States anymore — if there ever was.

Both the Left and the Right will happily throw them under the bus in exchange for the chance to engage with other, larger groups they'd prefer to have under their valueless banner.

🧵 THREAD 🧵 Because everyone seems to think Joe Biden is just a friendly old man who wants to unite the country against liars, let’s take a stroll through memory lane to see who Biden *really* is.

1972 onwards: lied about his wife’s death for political gain. 1973: “My gut reaction is that [homosexuals] are security risks.”

1973: Roe vs. Wade was “wrongly decided.”

1974: Roe vs. Wade “went too far.”

1988: Dropped out of presidential race because he stole excerpts of speeches.

1994: “Lock the SOBs up!”

🧵 THREAD 🧵 So right now, the subject of adolescents getting top surgeries is trending, so I wanted to put out some information and thoughts on this subject. The surgeon at the center of this discussion is Dr. Mosser, a San Francisco based surgeon who performs transgender surgeries on adolescents 17-years-old and younger.

🧵 THREAD 🧵The FBI is just the worst.

1) The FBI reports to AG Merrick Garland, who was appointed by Biden, whose primary political rival is Trump (who stopped Garland from getting his dream job on SCOTUS), and Garland gave the order on the raid!

2) In the 70s, an anti-war group managed to break into an unlocked FBI office while the entire bureau was distracted by the Ali-Frazier title fight.

The FBI never managed to work out who did it.

🧵 This article from the @washingtonpost presents the most amazing pro-life argument I think I've ever seen...and it's entirely unintentional. 🧵

It truly is an amazing read. Here's a thread of some highlights.

🧵 In the aftermath of any tragedy, people understandably want action.

But it’s crucial that debate is built on a foundation of fact, not fiction.

Here are a few important gun-related statistics that everyone should know, to add crucial context to ongoing discussion. 1) Most mass shooting events are carried out with handguns.

Between 1982 and 2021, 56.2% of 169 mass shooting incidents were carried out with handguns, 28.4% with rifles, and 15.4% with shotguns.

🧵 On both sides of the “debate,” there are fundamental problems, and these fundamental problems are standing as the ultimate barrier to achieving any actual progress in the face of ruthless and senseless violence.

ianhaworth.substack.com/p/three-proble… The first issue is that neither side can agree on a primary goal.

Every new mass shooting event is being used as further proof that guns must be — in some ways — “banned,” and opponents dig their heels in even deeper in response.

🧵 on Joe Biden's abortion flip-flops.

In 1976 Joe Biden voted for the Hyde Amendment, which prevents the use of federal funds for abortion in almost all cases.

He then voted to save it in 1993. The Foreign Assistance Act of 1981 still contains a “Biden amendment” which was added “to ban American aid from being used in research related to abortions.”

🧵 Debunking the Left's favorite pro-abortion arguments.

1) "My body, my choice."

At the moment of conception, the baby (or babies) are independent living entities, with separate DNA. They are not a part of the mother's body. 2) "Not uterus, no opinion."

Your ability to do something (get pregnant or get an abortion) has no relation to its morality.

Slavery is wrong, regardless of whether you own slaves or not, or whether you're a slave or not.

🧵 on Biden's gaslighting campaign during #SOTU2022. "Last year COVID-19 kept us apart. This year we are finally together again."

COVID-19 didn't keep people apart. Democratic Party lockdowns and mandates did.

🧵 Fact-checking Joe Biden's #SOTU comments on the #UkraineRussianWar. "He thought the West and NATO wouldn’t respond. And he thought he could divide us at home. Putin was wrong. We were ready."

We weren't ready.

THREAD: The Left is telling you that January 6, 2021 is one of the worst days in American history.

It's not even the worst January 6th ever. Here is a long list of worse things that have happened on that day. Jan 6, 1066: Harold is crowned as the King of England following the death of Edward the Confessor, which sparks a succession crisis which leads to the Norman conquest of England. Lots of people died, y'all.

Just a few facts.

1) Palestinians didn't "welcome" Jews to Israel after WW2. The entire Arab world tried - and failed - on multiple occasions to wipe Jews from the face of the planet. 2) There has been a constant Jewish presence in Israel for thousands of years, before Islam even existed.

3) Jews PURCHASED land in Israel, often from Arab landowners.
