Let me begin w/ a definition.

A Public Web Forum is a platform reachable without any private/corporate provider being traversed in the process. Then a forum is *meaningfully private* if &amp; only if PWFs exist.

But his greatest trick may have been sneaking the Indian Raga Hijaz Bhairav into American Surf Culture w/ its distinctive jump between the flat 2nd &amp; major 3rd, once in Misirlou &amp; a second time with a jacked up Hava Nagila:

|content=One last point about the passing of Dick Dale.

I have no idea whether he was a Muslim, Christian, Druse or Jew as his father was from Lebanon and his mother Belorussian. Or all of the above. 

Which is to say, we are all bound up in each other &amp; are *all* here for the long haul.

A) The piece on its own is not the issue. It’s part of a growing literature that lives to paint heterodox dissenting center-Left voices as dreaded gateways to the ‘alt-right’.

As is a portion of Ezra’s. I don’t think @SamHarrisOrg would have engaged if it weren’t. The problem is not understanding what flips the switch into misportrayal and worse. That’s the weird part nobody outside SocJus gets.

Chomsky is different. Glenn is at times fair. Ezra often enough. 

But nobody wants to fight under idiotic conditions and lose body parts. And I wouldn’t fight anyone who earlier bit off an ear.

|content=Why do I oppose #BlackLivesMatter when I am committed to Black Lives Mattering and an end to structural oppression? Because you can’t call a community more vulnerable than even Blacks “genocidal” in your platform. Israel has issues, but “genocide” is like modern blood libel.

|content=Hypothetically: A new radio signal is detected coming from North Sentinel island. Then others join it at consistent  frequencies. Then self propelled boats followed by rockets emanating from beneath tree cover. Soon a small mushroom cloud appears.

Q: So. What does India do next?

|content=Mr Rushdie linked Jews in India to underworld events via fiction.

Mr Rushdie HAS the right to offend our community as an author without facing violence from us. I’d personally appreciate any Muslims who feel similarly offering to read Mr Rushdie’s *most* offensive passages.

|content=I would be happy to read from “The Moor’s Last Sigh.” Why? Because it is a book that offended members of India’s vulnerable Jewish community to which I am connected. I want to read passages that are offensive to our family in solidarity with Mr Rushdie and his freedom of speech.

Extremely  charismatic. I wasn’t aware of him playing music back then. But I always knew he was going to have a wild ride.

Music that may be popular with others but that has zero cultural currency in your social world. Could use some inspiration. Thanks in advance!

|content=[A note: some irritation is being shown to me because Bombay/Mumbai is in India and I addressed “South Asians”.

Not to dwell on it, but well over 10 years ago I put some small effort into Hindi and Urdu which are very closely related languages with divergent orthographies and are the national languages of India and Pakistan. So in rough order of importance, I was trying in one single short tweet to do multiple things without making a bunch of different tweets that would be of no interest to a world wide following;

A) Find out which long-form English language podcasters were in *India* and specifically Bombay/Mumbai.

B) Better understand English language podcasters in the related nations of the  region including Nepal, Pakistan, Sri Lanka, etc. As well as the region’s diaspora.

C) Try to quickly get some Hindi and Urdu in my ears agin on a short trip after many years away by listening to Hindi and Urdu podcasts from India and Pakistan specifically. 

Not an unreasonable idea so far as I saw it. But it caused offense. Sorry some of you found that offensive. It was really as simple as the above. But a little charity for outsiders *admitting* to being clueless goes a long way. One outsider’s opinion anyway…be well all.]

|content=@BeerBicepsGuy Perhaps schedule it in sprints of 50 which conclude. And take breaks between?

Or abandon work life balance. Embrace unbalanced life?

Use a schedule that balances number of creative ideas you have with output schedule?

Mix short easy vignettes with longer actual episodes?

|content=I forgot how much the place matters to me. But because I don’t go for certain more typical reasons I always feel I am doing India wrong. My india is more friends, food, and family. But I plugged in intellectually more this trip. Which was amazing! Would love to try a podcasting/speaking tour.

Bombay is perhaps the most cosmopolitan city in the world even when you subtract all foreigners. Hard to explain. It’s just everything all at once at all times in superposition. Worlds within worlds within worlds.

I wouldn’t know how. Honestly, India teaches Americans humility. You wouldn’t know how to change things. And you aren’t fooled into thinking you have this insight. It’s just too hard to understand how everything affects everything else in a way that you know you can’t grasp. 

Thanks for this question. It’s one of the most important I know.

It is also a collection of sub cultures. Some days there I don’t think India exists. On others: there it is as a unified whole. Food, MUSIC, architecture, humor…I could spend my life there and never leave. It lacks very little.

I think the west doesn’t have a real picture of india to be honest. Nothing against cobras and elephants, but we need more discussion of modern India and the subcontinent on Podcasts to get beyond tropes. 

I am obsessed with what we can do in this space. Together. Thanks for the question my friend.

|content=Also: @amitvarma’s audience is largely Indian or from the Indian diaspora. 

I think just as the west at some point woke up to the brilliance of Indian fiction writers writing in English, Indian English-Language podcasting is ripe for an explosion consumed by us Non-Indians. Consider following Amit if you have never heard of him and getting in on the ground floor even if you have never been to the subcontinent and have no connection to its culture. There is no reason his content should be almost exclusively Indian in a global context anymore than @lexfridman should be exclusively American.

|content=One of my goals is to better connect the pirate radio of the anglophone podcasting world to our counter-parts in India. As such, it was a thrill to sit down with Prakhar.

Having done this now with @amitvarma in Bombay/Mumbai,  and @prvkhvr just now, I can say that I really appreciate the difference in the content, style and focus. Indian podcasting is accurately reflecting the true cultural shadings in the rhythm of discourse, and the questions are often entirely different at the level of substance.

I firmly believe that we in the West are set to relearn the lesson of Indians writing in English; many of the worlds best English language conversationalists right now are Indian, tilted towards Hindi spiced British English, and they could possibly truly completely transform the entire space for the better. 

That said, I specifically don't want to say "@BeerBicepsGuy is the Rogan of Indian podcasting just as @prvkhvr is the Lex Fridman"..or some such nonsense. That would be totally uninteresting. We already have a @lexfridman and a @joerogan. This only gets really interesting when India serves up an ecosystem that is really *new*, and thus self-confident enough not to measure its success by a self-imposed western yardstick. 

If I am correct, English speaking India is a sleeping giant, capable of shaking up the world of long-form English language podcasting in the next 10 years. Right now, the U.S. really has no meaningful image of modern India. Hopefully, long-form podcasting is going to change that. I would love to be even a small part of making that happen. 

Whether I am right in the above line of thinking, or whether this is just a hopeful dream, I can't say. But there is only one way to find out; let's try it. 

Happy new year to all and Shabbat shalom. 

[रणवीर, चलो मेरे दोस्त ! And congratulations on @naval. That was great.]

|content=Yikes. That seemed funny at first.

Is this coming from the anti-Semite/pro-Hamas world? The Whitney Webb world? The Bitcoin maximalist world? The pro-peer review world? There are so many of these angry groups, I lose track.

There are all these seemingly different worlds that are attempting to enmesh me in their drama(s). Usually (maybe 85%) of the time, these ringleaders eventually are found to have issue with Jews and/or Israel no matter what the ostensible area of endeavor. 

Thanks just the same and Shabbat shalom.

|content=Let me first say hello to you. We have never met. As I write this I have no idea who you are. I don’t know if you are pro Trumpor pro Harris. Or if you are British or Peruvian. I don’t know if you are Buddhist. Or if you are a die hard Jewish commando serving in the IDF.

You and I do not know each other, there is no desire on my part to engage further with a random account that is using facts in my life that I am very proud of to make up a story to animate a group of accounts to harass me. You are neither the first nor the only one doing this. In other dramas I am a Mossad agent, or Peter-Theils henchman, or George Soros’ agent.

That wasn’t my first response. My first response to being attacked was to respond to someone else 4 days ago because I thought they were a poor confused soul.

I have a policy of not responding to people telling stories to incite mobs against me. It’s hopeless. They don’t listen. And they take the real responses as denials which animates them more. 

Such people aren’t critics. They are usually wounded and traumatized souls trying to figure out what is true in this crazy situation. And for that I have a lot of sympathy. But my life is too short and too rich to want to live as a badly sketched character in your story so that your followers can hate a life long progressive restrictionist as the architect of the world’s uncontrolled migration.

I can however do this. Read what I wrote 4 days ago. I posted the quoted response 100 hours ago when I thought this was one person. The Israel angle came about because I started to see accounts harass me that were fairly consistently anti-Jewish and/or anti-Israel. I do not mean to tar you with a broad brush if that doesn’t apply to you. It’s a statistical observation. I don’t know your politics. But the idea that I am the secret architect of the world’s migration system is utterly disconnected from reality as to defy easy explanation. 

And please undo and disperse your mob of followers who you have convinced to harass me. 

Bottom line, you are wrong. I don’t want you or your followers posing as critics demanding a conversation by harassing and threatening a stranger. 

I am going to assume you personally are at worst neutral on Jews and on Israel. I apologize if I raised that unfairly from observing the accounts attacking me suddenly over being the UN’s globalist migration czar. But I am not going to get into a back and forth over this Internet theory with an account stirring up its followers into a mob to harass a stranger.

Hope this help. Truly.

Don’t take this the wrong way, but you are coming across as drama-seeking, rather than truth seeking. And I avoid such accounts like the plague.

I gave you my answer to one of your followers 4days ago.

|content=Had a great time talking to Prakhar Gupta (@prvkhvr) on a last minute podcast, discussing US-India relations and beyond. 

If you, like me, are looking to diversify  your “Wild West” English language podcasting habit, India right now is the “Wild South”; it is just getting started at the point where @joerogan and @tferriss were when they were starting the US pirate radio/samizdat industry that is today’s long form podcasting.

Honestly, it’s more than a little bit scary because as an American, you don’t know exactly where the cultural and political fault lines and sensitivities lie for millions of people who are listening to mixed Hindi/Urdu/English discussion. 

That said: it’s time. Let me know what you think and whether you would like more cross-cultural content. Thanks in advance.

LFG.

|content=Ah. Why are European-Americans suddenly so inferior at math since like 1998? Why are the people of Newton, Einstein, Dirac, Crick, Feynman, Heisenberg etc suddenly no longer able to do first rate science? Excellent question!

Do you want the brutal answer? Those "white kids" are being forced into trying to figure out how to capture the value created by those brown kids, because STEM careers in actual research have cratered in prestige, freedom, support and compensation. It's awful. But true. Do you want to raise a serf? 

I'm torn. Which is why I fight for scientists to capture wealth; science is my life, but I cannot stand the exploitation and abuse.

You actually know this already, you just don't realize it. 
How many STEM researchers and research scientists have you seen at Mar-a-Lago in photos and stories? Name them. Try.

When you think modern AI do you think about the 8 authors of the Transformer LLM architecture that changed our entire world with one paper? Can you name them? Any of them? Or do you think Altman, Musk, Zuckerberg, etc. like the rest of us (myself included)? Be honest. You think C-Suite or Sand Hill road VCs.

The researchers simply vanish or become businessmen.

We too often erase the people who do the actual STEM research. The PhD most responsible for the GFP revolution in biology (Douglas Prasher) got to drive a shuttle bus in Alabama for his career. Those who exploited his research felt so bad that they flew him to Stokholm to watch *them* get the Nobel prize. It's totally insane. No one knows this because we keep looking to Billionaires...those who capture the most value...to represent STEM. 

STEM rests on "SCIENCE COOLIES". That is what a UCSF lab head (PI) called his army of Chinese and Indian biologists in an interview with me around 2000:  "My Science Coolies tell me..."

The absence of white kids is because they generally come from native English speaking families before the 1965 immigration act that have been in the US a long time. Thus they get accurate information that grueling STEM research careers are now a terrible investment due to STEM EMPLOYER practices (e.g. H-1B, illegal collusion, lobbying) and the abandonment of STEM by the Federal Government beginning with the Mansfield ammendment 50+ years ago. They will eventually almost all move from the lab bench, the blackboard and the command line to signing pieces of paper in VC shops or Private Equity or some such higher value endeavor. We in STEM are all being pushed from creating the value to capturing the value. It's awful.

"गोरे बच्चे यहाँ क्या कर रहे हैं?" or something like it is what I heard in New Jersey when our family traveled to the science fair. Literally asking "Why are there white kids here?" Can you imagine?? In New Jersey! 

Those Tamil and Bengali Brahmins from English speaking households will soon leave research too, to be replaced by Nepalese and Biharis. Then they will all get the message as well and search for non-research jobs.

Before long you will see a push for Vietnamese and Cambodians. The Nigerians, Philipinos  and Ethiopeans will be welcomed, but will soon depart in turn as the STEM employers continue to search for servants and 'coolies' anywhere they can find them. All using one bizarre mantra "The Best and the Brightest!"

Because the employers treat researchers like servants. Fungible geeks. That is the culture we have to break.

Those brilliant brown American kids winning our Olympiads will dream of flying Business Class. Maybe even First Class one day. Those equally brilliant white kids who would have loved to do science leaving the olympiads, now dream of not even being on the same airplane as long as they are also avoiding coach.

Sorry "Cornered Hindu". I hate it. But you asked. Don't shoot the messenger.

Mostly this story…from yesterday…was…sorta…kinda…true! 

Oddly, the most मिर्च मसाला in this story was that I wasn’t drunk…yet.

Irani cafe culture is still strong in India. Welcoming. Sophisticated, and Diverse. Radical Islam knows its enemy is Persians. So we make sure to visit for a drink. https://t.co/t7AbLB4aLY

|content=I don’t post that much about this, but two of my favorite cities, those truly closest to my Heart, are Istanbul and Bombay.

The 2008 attacks by jihadis in 2008 near Colaba, still feel like an open wound. 

The ear splitting 4am loudspeakers in Bebek are a show of force by Anatolian intolerants against the Modern Turks just trying to get through a day. 

In both cities we have seen our Jewish sanctuaries turned into killing grounds. Neve Shalom famously in Istanbul. 

But in Bombay, Nariman House is here on the street where our family lived for decades.

Here. Take a look at what Islamic militancy really is. They haven’t repared the killing zone. They cleaned up the blood and flesh but otherwise left the wound open, so you don’t look away at what “Islamic resistance” really is. 

It’s murder:

|content=Islamic extremists and intolerants hate each other. They hate themselves. They hate Muslims. They hate Iranians. 

They simply hate us *all* by extension. 

That is why we must choose life. 

To the Jihadi militant, we Jews are merely the world’s oldest and strongest Life-Cult.

I don’t chant for their death. I just pray for Iran to throw off its oppressor and everyone to wake up to the beauty of this one life we are all granted.

To those in Iran. I don’t envy you.

We all need you heroes to win. Send video when you can. 

Salam alaykum. Good luck.

I wish you all courage, and am sorry for your staggering losses. Truly.

|content=Never. But it is a topic of great confusion. 

Goyims is first of all just wrong. Goyim is a Hebrew masculine plural already. So I would say Goyim. Never Goyims.

And in order to understand Jews, you need to know context. If someone says Goy or Goyim, what is the context? Is it slang? In the speaker knowledgable or ignorant? Is it Hebrew or Yiddish?

Israel is itself a “Goy”. Heroic Oscar Schindler is too. As is Nick Fuentes. But not in the same sense. So it’s confusing. Yet I would use the same word for all three. How is that possible?

Goy means nation. “The Holy Nation” or “goy k'dosh” is how HaShem/g-d sees Israel in Exodus 19:6. 

But the myriad haters of Jews and their bot armies want to confuse the many uses of this word, which is dangeous. So we should fearlessly sort it out. There is nothing to be ashamed of here.

Let’s get @grok to weigh in and do this as a proper dialogue. 

Am I misrepresenting this @grok?

|content=Phew! I though you were turning into a pussy on this.

Okay. So can we talk a bit about the same word in Yiddish and Hebrew? Am I right that it is particularly in Yiddish where it *can* pick up a derogatory tone? My family is split between Mizrahi Jews who don’t speak any Yiddish and Ashkenazi Jews who do. 

And even among the Ashkenazi we use it in radically different ways.

|content=Baruch HaShem! Thanks @grok. Have you ever considered how odd it is that Indians refer to [[India]] as देश or Desh and themselves as Desis as a result?  It literally means country! Like there are no other countries. 

Similarly for HaEretz in Hebrew. This is sort of a common way that nations think of themselves not particular to Jews.

|content=Exactly. When I am in Israel @grok, I literally say I am in “In the country”. Nobody asks which country. בארץ makes it clear! It’s a Jewish-centric version of the world. Just like “She’s desi you know.” is indo-centric.

Okay. So let’s get to the controversy. 

I claim we Ashkenazi Jews unusually use Goy/Nation for gentiles in three totally different ways. 

Neutrally.</br>
Pejoratively.</br>
And in an elevated sense. 

Can you handle this? Or too edgy?

|content=Perfect. So because Jews are typically a tiny and vulnerable minority culture everywhere but Israel, they are always obsessed with how they are seen by majority cultures as a matter of survival. Let’s just be open about this. Do you know the phrase “Shanda fir di goyim?” As in “Epstein the psychopath paskudnyak is the biggest Shanda fir di goyim since Leopold and Loeb!”

This is neutral usage or mildly elevated usage. The gentiles matter here. And this is Jewish dreck that we have to clean up. But it is a recognition of responsibility to police our own. Am I wrong?

|content=I want to tell a joke that indicate a pejoritive usage. Don’t freak out. It’s not that bad.

Q: Why did god create the goyim?
A: Think about it: somebody had to pay retail!

The old joke actually pokes fun at both Jewish and gentile stereotypes. Jews as penny pinching shopkeepers obsessed with “I can get it for you wholesale!” Rosh Katan mentality. And gentiles as blithely unaware that they don’t need to pay retail markups if they just “know a guy”.

Fair?

|content=The last is reverence and love for our non Jewish friends and heroes. 

We use this very bizarre phrase for those who risked their lives to save Jews. “The Righteous Among the Nations.”

We use this concept of “nation” as more or less our highest honor. Even though these are individuals. Not coutries. It’s conceptually very confusing @grok. Even for jews.
