I’ve been told, after asking for evidence for that drone story, that “Fact-checking information isn't inherently negative, but there's a significant caveat when it's applied to scrutinize the accounts of the oppressed.” (More hot air followed) It quickly went to pretty harsh antisemitic insults when I wasn’t impressed. I’m not Jewish. You wrote all the things I couldn’t put together in my mind and more, thank you.

(Best replace “immaculate conception” with “virgin birth” though, those are two different things)

Amazing. I'm so disturbed by what the left has become. It's scary.

"Lest our quest for justice interfere with virtue signaling" - that's at the core of what so many on the Left are focused on: looking "good". The self-harm notion is an apt assessment and something that women have been very good at (historically) as THEY try to look like "good girls" in the societal framework in which they lived.

One thing I've slowly started to notice is that the religious right has less of a resistance to gay rights than they did in the past. Dave Rubin is gay and is featured at many a right-wing event (not that I go as I am Canadian). Andrew Klavan has a brilliant gay son . . . and certainly they and their friends would be a far better fit than Gazans.

But you're right - the Left is hurting itself because it refuses to draw a line between being a classic liberal and being downright whacko.

New subscriber here! Just wanted to let you know I really enjoyed this piece ❤.

I'm not Jewish, but I hope that you and every other Jewish person reading this knows that for all of the often antisemitic lunacy going on you have a lot of love and support as well.

Keep up the great work!
