=== 2018 === {{Tweet |image=Eric profile picture.jpg |nameurl=https://x.com/EricRWeinstein/status/992954707185319937 |name=Eric Weinstein |usernameurl=https://x.com/ericweinstein |username=ericweinstein |content=@Pathfinder4545 No I’m not. I’m intuiting from my experiences that there is some wrong with the tail analysis. I have a guess what it is as well but don’t want to wade in until I have the time to see if it bears some preliminary scrutiny. |thread= {{Tweet |image=Eric profile picture.jpg |nameurl=https://x.com/EricRWeinstein/status/992495993894547456 |name=Eric Weinstein |usernameurl=https://x.com/ericweinstein |username=ericweinstein |content=A lot of folks are curious about where I stand on @RealCandaceO. Here are things I’m watching for: a) as someone w/ strong support for Israel, I’m hoping Candace will talk about the need to decouple issues of police brutality against US blacks from any anti-Israel stance of BLM. |timestamp=8:07 PM · May 04, 2018 }} {{Tweet |image=Eric profile picture.jpg |nameurl=https://x.com/EricRWeinstein/status/992497198091845632 |name=Eric Weinstein |usernameurl=https://x.com/ericweinstein |username=ericweinstein |content=b) I’m looking to see whether she‘s going to take on the Race & IQ discussion from the point of recognizing the myriad examples of Black genius we drown in as Americans, which would be unlikely under the simple bell curve argument. Not my issue, but one that upsets me greatly. |timestamp=8:12 PM · May 04, 2018 }} {{Tweet |image=Eric profile picture.jpg |nameurl=https://x.com/EricRWeinstein/status/992498497612955648 |name=Eric Weinstein |usernameurl=https://x.com/ericweinstein |username=ericweinstein |content=c) I’m looking to see if she builds kindness & empathy toward those she opposes. Here she’s reached out to me as a Bernie voter with generousity of spirit. But I’d love to see more of such heart & compassion. These are all things I’ve said to her directly. So I’ll watch & wait. |timestamp=8:17 PM · May 04, 2018 }} {{Tweet |image=Eric profile picture.jpg |nameurl=https://x.com/EricRWeinstein/status/992502288219439104 |name=Eric Weinstein |usernameurl=https://x.com/ericweinstein |username=ericweinstein |content=But what I’m sure of is that Candace is 100% her own person who will become whoever she want to become & has the talent to make a huge impact. So I’d like to be helpful (if that it is going to be positive as I see the world) from across the aisle. A loyal opposition is important. |timestamp=8:32 PM · May 04, 2018 }} {{Tweet |image=Eric profile picture.jpg |nameurl=https://x.com/EricRWeinstein/status/992529647702130688 |name=Eric Weinstein |usernameurl=https://x.com/ericweinstein |username=ericweinstein |content=@n_bresnahan @RealCandaceO Police brutality can be a BIG problem but it varies by location. How big a problem and how anti-black it is, is a matter of data and experience. I think she thinks it’s exaggerated relative to the data in aggregate. I hear that from some academics but don’t know myself. |timestamp=10:21 PM · May 04, 2018 }} {{Tweet |image=Eric profile picture.jpg |nameurl=https://x.com/EricRWeinstein/status/992531745235845120 |name=Eric Weinstein |usernameurl=https://x.com/ericweinstein |username=ericweinstein |content=@DoughTheory @RealCandaceO Really?? You aren’t getting it. The anti-Israel issue is a divisive intersectional wedge issue keeping blacks & Jews from coming together. It is SUPER important because it creates a catastrophic illusion that US Jews won’t fight for Black justice. Which is just tactical bullshit. |timestamp=10:29 PM · May 04, 2018 }} {{Tweet |image=Eric profile picture.jpg |nameurl=https://x.com/EricRWeinstein/status/992533082220650496 |name=Eric Weinstein |usernameurl=https://x.com/ericweinstein |username=ericweinstein |content=@AlexanderBlum0 @RealCandaceO It’s an order of operations issue. Fighting needless wedge issues brings coalitions on line which allow leverage. We want to come together. I’m talking about clearing away needless obstacles first. |timestamp=10:35 PM · May 04, 2018 }} {{Tweet |image=Eric profile picture.jpg |nameurl=https://x.com/EricRWeinstein/status/992537153992245248 |name=Eric Weinstein |usernameurl=https://x.com/ericweinstein |username=ericweinstein |content=@jeffgiesea @RealCandaceO I would never do that. Have you met her?? Ha! I don’t think anyone can goad her. She’s one of the most forceful self defined people I’ve ever met. Given that I’m not a conservative, I’m talking about my issues for people who want to know why I’m taking an interest. |timestamp=10:51 PM · May 04, 2018 }} {{Tweet |image=Eric profile picture.jpg |nameurl=https://x.com/EricRWeinstein/status/992541412255088640 |name=Eric Weinstein |usernameurl=https://x.com/ericweinstein |username=ericweinstein |content=@AlexanderBlum0 @RealCandaceO Optics I can’t speak to. Anti-Black racism is obviously real. I’d be *shocked* if @RealCandaceO said it wasn’t in a calm moment. She does make claims that it’s exaggerated for political gain though. But I’m not getting in there when there are black voices I’d rather listen to. |timestamp=11:08 PM · May 04, 2018 }} {{Tweet |image=Eric profile picture.jpg |nameurl=https://x.com/EricRWeinstein/status/992541541267746816 |name=Eric Weinstein |usernameurl=https://x.com/ericweinstein |username=ericweinstein |content=@nathano_j @AlexanderBlum0 @RealCandaceO And selective prosecution. |timestamp=11:08 PM · May 04, 2018 }} {{Tweet |image=Eric profile picture.jpg |nameurl=https://x.com/EricRWeinstein/status/992563690661539841 |name=Eric Weinstein |usernameurl=https://x.com/ericweinstein |username=ericweinstein |content=@KenfukintuckyKJ Not a fan of Bernie’s views of Markets. |timestamp=12:36 AM · May 05, 2018 }} {{Tweet |image=Eric profile picture.jpg |nameurl=https://x.com/EricRWeinstein/status/992564332490706945 |name=Eric Weinstein |usernameurl=https://x.com/ericweinstein |username=ericweinstein |content=@YankeleZ Are you unaware of the other choices??
