@theojovi @TriEarth96 @antonioguterres You can only get numbers in the millions in this by using category tricks. Like counting all civilian deaths in Vietnam as caused by America, and none by Viet Cong, which is ridiculous. 20 million is on the upper end even for the most dishonest counters.

@TriEarth96 @Jughead_Fiddles @antonioguterres How many deaths after ww2 where the American regime has been involved? Over 20 million deaths. On behalf of the world you're welcome.

For the first time in decades, the number of nuclear warheads is on the rise. A nuclear war cannot be won & must not be fought. It’s time to re-commit to disarmament and non-proliferation as the only true path to peace.

@TessaWellblack @eurojewcong The subject is Jews, not Israelis. Though I would similarly caution against blaming private persons for the actions of a government. And no one should be held to that racist standard. An Iranian in America should not have to prove they don't support the Ayatollah, for example.

@Jughead_Fiddles @eurojewcong I what way? Are Israeli's so special that they can't be held to the same standards as the rest of humanity?

We strongly condemn the scenes in Milan, where descendants of the Jewish Brigade and members of the Jewish community were forced to leave the Liberation Day march under police protection after being surrounded by demonstrators shouting antisemitic slogans. This incident is particularly concerning given the historical role of the Jewish Brigade, whose members fought against Nazism in Italy. The intimidation and exclusion of Jewish participants from a commemoration of liberation represent a profound distortion of history and a serious manifestation of contemporary antisemitism. Such behaviour is unacceptable. Targeting Jewish individuals in a public commemoration undermines the very values of remembrance, democracy and coexistence that this day is meant to uphold.

@JamesGhani @eurojewcong I prefer to call a spade a spade.

@Jughead_Fiddles @eurojewcong I'd be cautious of slandering someone in public to get the upper hand. Present your argument, I'll present mine. We're unlikely to agree, but we must assume a certain dignity in the exchange.

I don’t remember all of the people who are complaining how “stupid” it is to indict Comey over an Instagram post defending Doug Mackey when Biden’s DOJ tried to throw him in jail over a Hillary Clinton meme that he posted in 2016.

@JamesGhani @eurojewcong Oh. Well. I was saying that I don't think you're a moron- I think you're a liar. But uh, you know what? Nevermind. I take it back. Don't worry about it.

@Jughead_Fiddles @eurojewcong Are you drunk? I'm afraid I didn't understand your odd metaphor at all.

@TessaWellblack @eurojewcong Yes, you are a racist POS. Totally clear.

@Jughead_Fiddles @eurojewcong If Jews don't want to be painted with the same brush as the Israeli genocidal Jews, they need to make it clear that they in no way endorse or support Israel's actions. Does that clarify things for you?

@JamesGhani @eurojewcong You don't really believe that. The jew-hater doesn't really believe the jew stole his wallet- he just likes watching the jew turn out his pockets and uselessly proclaim his innocence.

@Jughead_Fiddles @eurojewcong Aye, there's the rub ... The accusation of expansionism is far from "totally absurd" it is in fact, undeniable. The entire world is watching it in realtime.

@theojovi @TriEarth96 @antonioguterres USA nuked Japan, which killed 20 million Chinese. The nukes killed maybe 160,000 people. This is less than a third of the Japanese civilians killed by other weapons. You mentioned China and Russia, which killed like 60 million and 30 million of their own people, respectively.

@TriEarth96 @antonioguterres If anyone has used it throughout the entire history, it is your country who has used it twice. The world should be more worried about you having it because you're the only country wicked and crazy enough to use it again because you lack control.

@TessaWellblack @eurojewcong Ok. Do Arabs need to clearly distinguish themselves from the Palestinians, lest they be blamed and beaten for October 7th and countless crimes? Or is that different?

@Jughead_Fiddles @eurojewcong That's the clear distinction that the Jews in Italy need to make.

@yeselson @ProfDBernstein @dilanesper So your theory is that Israel will have safety when Palestinians have sovereignty? I don't think anybody anywhere buys that. It is clearly the opposite.

@ProfDBernstein @dilanesper How do you possibly imagine Israel to ever have security and acceptance in the Arab and Muslim worlds without energetically advancing Palestinian sovereignty? Defend itself? It will be in a state of warfare forever-despised by the world-unless it solves its *political* problem

This is the problem with the Israeli right. Basically the notion is that because Israel has enemies, it should be able to throw the entire costs of its defense onto innocent civilians rather than bearing any of it itself. Which is an evil belief, because civilians have rights.

@JamesGhani @eurojewcong Random Jews in Italy aren't responsible for whatever you're mad about in the Holy Land. And your accusation of expansionism is totally absurd, as you well know.

@eurojewcong Ridiculous take. If you're going to proudly wrap yourselves in the Israeli flag and attend a Liberation Day rally I'm afraid you'd have be an utter cretin if you weren't expecting to provoke at a time when Israel and it's expansionist madness is causing misery for millions.

@TessaWellblack @eurojewcong What do random Jews in Italy have to do with Israel?

@eurojewcong So the European Jews need to have a chat to Israel, and tell them that their genocidal campaign is making all Jews look bad. Get to it.

@spiggzy @eurojewcong Who does? Random Jews in Italy? What do they have to do with Lebanon and Iran?!

@eurojewcong Cry harder. When you stop targeting civilians in Gaza, Lebanon and Iran, I will support your human rights. But first you have to learn to behave like humans.

Jihadists continue to massacre Christians in Africa, and it barely gets covered. Wrong part of the world, wrong types of perpetrators, wrong types of victims, no angle to blame Israel.

@tactical_spork @JoshKraushaar What a load shit. Israel could kill them if they wanted to. They obviously don't.

@JoshKraushaar Folks asked this about people who grew up having never voted for or known any government other than Hamas. The Israeli answer seemed to be "they should die".

"Zionism is not a theory anymore. It is a country called Israel. It is over seven million Jews who live there. It is a language spoken by children in schoolyards. It is a passport, an army, a grandparents’ generation already buried in the ground" boundlessinsights.substack.com/p/but-zionism-…

@CanadaDev They literally pay Palestinians to murder Israelis. Did y'all talk about that, or???

The Deputy Minister of International Development met with the Palestinian Minister of Finance and recognized Palestine’s progress on critical governance reforms despite challenges. Canada stands firm in support of accountable institutions, stability, and a just, lasting peace.

Canada recently participated in the Ad Hoc Liaison Committee on #Palestine. Alongside partners, we reaffirm our commitment to a two-state solution including continued engagement to support stability and sustainable long-term outcomes.

@AdamKinzinger The leftwing belief that gerrymandering was invented in Texas in 2025 is one of the strangest political ideas going right now.

Prolly maybe shouldn’t have done the Texas thing huh maga?

@EsotericCD “We strongly condemn the attempts to kill the fascist child rapist who will destroy democracy if nothing is done to stop him—which isn’t going to happen since the courts are also illegitimate. Also, those attempts seem awfully convenient, just saying.”

@WalshFreedom "it's wrong but you should do it". Just shut the fuck up, Joe.

1. Political violence is always wrong. 2. It’s wrong, but not at all surprising, that someone would try to commit an act of violence against this President. Donald Trump is a cruel, hateful, divisive person, with the world’s biggest microphone, who incites violence against people every single day. He lives off of hate & division. Every day, Trump lights a match and spreads hate. So it’s not surprising someone would try to commit violence against him. It’s wrong, but not surprising.

@kvallier @ValidScience @christopherrufo This is an insane comparison. Mormonism isn't a vast movement in academia.

@ValidScience @christopherrufo Most religions and philosophies are kooky. But they all have good people. And I learn from them. I have fun talking to critical race theorists, just like I have fun talking to Mormons.

I want to clearly state where I think @christopherrufo has been harmful for American civic life. He has certainly done some good. My concern is that his tactics are a kind of civic poison. They salt the social earth, making trust hard to rebuild and polarization hard to reduce. I'm part of the Ohio civics project. I left an ordinary academic job to throw myself into the work of academic reform, building institutions that serve as a counterweight to left-wing overreach. The academy is in deep need of reform. I am not a beautiful loser asking conservatives to disarm. But this work requires being charitable to people we disagree with, and Rufo's rhetoric is not uniformly welcome among those of us doing it. Consider his own words: "We will eventually turn [critical race theory] toxic, as we put all of the 'various cultural insanities' under that brand category. The goal is to have the public read something 'crazy' in the newspaper and immediately think 'critical race theory.'" This isn't arguing that a view is false. It isn't trying to remove it from a curriculum. It's category construction. It has always read to me as engineered so the public can't distinguish thoughtful people who draw on CRT from crazy ones. That's not necessary to win the argument, and it corrodes the civic ground any future reform has to be built upon. I'm not tone-policing. I'm saying what Rufo gives with one hand, he takes with the other. Many of us are doing the hard daily work of academic reform, and we do not uniformly welcome his efforts, because his tactics are too bare-knuckled and, frankly, unkind. So to be clear: the academy needs reform. I am giving my career to that project. But I will not thank Rufo for anything as long as his rhetoric salts the earth for rebuilding trust with the left.
