At least now that they have been successfully parasitized. Revolutionary Marxism had a world wide branding problem after the horrors of the 20th century. And so it rebranded out of necessity, putting its best foot forward: “Anti-Fascism”, “Decolonization”, “Equity”, etc. This is “Woke” as a violent revolutionary rebrand if you will. And in rebranded form, it was taken in by the mainstream which somehow had no idea what Woke actually was as a Trojan horse or “wolf in sheep’s clothing.” Which seemed bizarre at the time frankly. But what you are seeing is the mask coming off. “Queers for Hamas Executing Queers” still doesn’t really exist. It’s really “Queers against Oppression” that sells. Which makes sense. Okay, so start there. Then if you can start there, what happens is you go through a chain: “Queers For a Coalition against oppression!” becomes…. “Queers supporting reasonable Arabs menaced by dangerous illegal settlers.” becomes…. “Queers Supporting any Arabs standing up against Israel’s hardliners.” becomes…. “Queers supporting Arabs who rejected a state of their own against Jews who wanted them to have a state.” becomes…. “Queers supporting Arabs who want Israel and Jews destroyed.” becomes…. “Queers supporting Arabs who finally have the guts to **lead** and, at last, stick it to oppressors everywhere on earth by orgiastically filming their anti-Jewish celebrations of torture-murdering and disfiguring/raping Jewish families in front of each other.” becomes…. “Queers for global violent revolution against all those branded as oppressors by the woke revolutionary coalition, as a means to bring about utopia.” And there you are. “Queers for Hamas Resistance” as the “tough sons of bitches who finally have the guts to celebrate the ritualistic nightmare disfigurement/torture/rape of the families of the oppressor class.” To them, Hamas leads the way, and….hey….coalitions make “strange bedfellows”. Basically, “Social Justice” got parasitized. Ordinary Democrats in the US got sold on a repackaging of violent revolutionary thinking. Remember this: DEI IS HATE. Branded as love. That is the power of branding. And by the time you realize it is not a passing academic intellectual fad, it’s often too late. I don’t believe it is too late. Yet. But it is now time to fight off the woke revolutionary parasites trying first to capture our children passing through our universities, schools and media. It has gotten very late… and we haven’t a moment to lose.

The Palestinian Arabs are *quite* capable of innovating warfare and are bringing a new idea to US soil. You may ask yourself “Why raise Palestinian Flags? Why bar Jewish students from their own campuses? Why hold mass Islamic prayer sessions on university quads? Why erect tents cities on US quads and violently defend them?” The short answer is “Because there is not yet an understanding of Palestinian Arab innovation and genius in warfare.” Let me put it simply: Instagram/TicTok is the ambush battlefield. Our children/students are the hostages. The Goal is Video. Victim video to be precise. Flags, prayer sessions, tent cities, insults, restricted movement, chants, taunts are the bait. We, like Israel, are being out smarted by a new innovation: they want us to attack them ON VIDEO. And they will do everything to make sure that THEY GET HURT. I’m sorry to put it harshly. But that *IS* the innovation. And it is beyond clever. They are trying not to provoke a reaction but to find the minimal level of provocation that will FORCE us to violent action to take back our way of life in the US. We are being played and our children are the audience. This is not going to fool a 75 year old Vietnam vet. This is aiming at his granddaughter, the disenfranchised barista or English major who has no purpose and few prospects. Several videos in, and our children will forget what and who started this. The goal is to be beaten up or worse ON VIDEO. As in Gaza, so in UCLA/CCNY/Columbia. In the era of Instagram, Sinwar’s Ingenious innovation is this: “History was once written by the winners, but now it is filmed by its eager victims.” Or to put it more simply in the social media era: “To the victims go the spoils.” Will it work? I don’t know. That depends on us. But it is an amazing, if diabolical, innovation nonetheless. 🙏 |timestamp=1:05 PM · May 02, 2024 }} |timestamp=1:16 PM · May 02, 2024 }} {{Tweet |image=Eric profile picture.jpg |nameurl=https://x.com/EricRWeinstein/status/1806012174109700453 |name=Eric Weinstein |usernameurl=https://x.com/ericweinstein |username=ericweinstein |content=From the Mississippi River, to Sea to Shining sea, American Jews are home.

Maybe, think of this differently? The crowd and movement you are seeing here are in the process of explaining many difficult things. My advice: thank them instead. They are in the process of visually explaining why despite decades of work by Israelis and Americans, there is still no state for Palestinian Arabs, and they are doing it better than anyone else can. They are explaining why Israel was forced to go into Gaza. They are explaining their reasoning, upon which my fellow Americans are still being held hostage. They are explaining why even so many Americans who deplore Netanyahu and Settler policy, still support Israel's defense of its people and sovereignty. They are here explaining the level of intellectual rigor behind 'Palestinian Genocide in Gaza!' to people who do not follow the middle east closely. They are explaining what "From the River to the Sea!" actually means. Visually. They are explaining what they will do if given power. They are explaining the unusual uses Hamas has found for Hospitals, Schools, Apartment Buildings, Ambulances, Refugee Camps, etc. They are explaining why Hamas (while complaining of 'genocide') actually rockets a sovereign state to provoke attacks from a nation whose citizens they hold as hostages. The protestors are showing us how Hamas deliberately antagonized and *FORCED* Israel into military response, through a declaration of war through by jihadis committing gleeful attrocities against civilians, the elderly, guest workers, children and mothers. They are explaining why Black Lives Matter is dangerous to us all despite black lives mattering to almost everyone. They are explaining that they love Yemen and the Houthis and hate their own country and themselves. They are explaining what they will do to "Queers for Palestine" once they are done using them, and get the chance to explore the admonitions of strict religious law. They are explaining why reasonable and civil muslims the world over have been warning the west about the dangers of Jihad and Salafists/Wahabists for decades. They are explaining why they don't blink when you say 'Rape is not an act of Resistance' and why they celebrate the acts of unimaginable savagery used to drag Israel into war. They are explaining what the "world wide revolt of the oppressed" is actually about. They are explaining the intellectual basis and stature of an otherwise misleading academic theory called 'Decolonization'. They are showing you our future if we couple Gun Control to something called 'Defund the Police'. This certainly is changing my position on Gun Control. What would they do to you if they were armed and you were not with no police to call? They are telling you the meaning of 'No Justice, No Peace' as a threat rather than a slogan. That is priceless, in and of itself. More than anything, they are explaining that they are not liberals, or center left or even progressives. You are looking straight into the eyes and hearts of revolutionaries. These are the violent revolutionaries who have been normalized by one party. My party, I am embarassed to say. These people are what now leap out of the Wooden Horse, misleadingly labeled 'Progressivism', when you take it inside your gated walls, and they are explaining what this group sees as progress. They are telling you what the phrase "A world to win!" means to them. Learn from them. So take a good look. If you deplore the idea of violent revolutionaries destabilizing your world and everything you love about it, don't look away. Let them finish their explanation. Get their representatives and spokespeople who are not afraid to *fully* explain the true agenda as much air time as they want. Join me. The abyss is hard to understand: welcome the explanation and celebrate their free speech. One man's opinion anyway.

I know Mario and like him. Quite a bit. He has been princely and gracious to me as well. I feel like I must not be getting something. Maybe rational Jews / Arabs who are *not* Israelis / Gazans nor Netanyahu/Sinwar supporters, need to sit down, break bread and clarify what they think war, Casus Belli, a people, genocide, surrender, resistance, etc are and then talk to their Israeli and Gazan counterparts in Israel and Gaza. Just a thought. To answer Mario’s question directly, I would say “The instant Gazan Arabs want it to. It’s simply the consequence of declaring war through civilian atrocities to induce military conflict on your own people. To stop a war you started with massacres, you just surrender, return hostages and turn over your war criminals. You don’t further antagonize your enemy, rocket their cities and chant ‘From the River to the Sea!’ or “This is genocide.” which seem totally bizarre if you want to end what Hamas started.” I’m not being sarcastic. I’m legitimately totally bewildered by the Gazan narrative. Japan ended WWIi. If the reponse to Hiroshima and Nagasaki was to chant “From California to Ann Arbor, we’ll slaughter you just like Pearl Harbor.” there would have been no end to the war. And Japan is a pretty nice place today. Surrender stopped the destruction in Japan. Japanese people didn’t lose everything. Can someone explain the “When will this end?” question in WWII terms? Because I see the destruction in Gaza and of the horrors of war and it makes me sick to my stomach. The only difference is I see Sinwar ordering all the war on the menu for himself without regard to cost in human life and then sending the bill for his feast to another table which is, naturally, dumbfounded. I just don’t get it. Obviously. The war ends the hour Arabs stop chanting for for their enemy’s eradication, surrender, and turn over hostages and those masterminds who thought that slaughtering civilians was an excellent way to start a war. This isn’t hard. This isn’t intractable. It’s war. It has known ways to end it. Unless the masterminds want it to go on because they see themselves as actually winning what they really want.

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.

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.

I left it there because sometime around October 11-12, after the initial shock of the Hamas massacre had worn off, I felt a deep dread that I had understood something truly horrible about its architect Yahya Sinwar. When I wrote the tweet, Israel was still 11 days away from its invasion of Gaza. It hadn’t started. What I thought I had realized was that Sinwar was a genius who was innovating at a totally diabolical level. In effect, he had gone well beyond the suicide bomber. The point of co-locating your military and terror installations around schools, mosques, hospitals, residences, etc., is to use a so-called "Human Shield Strategy" to make it impossible for your enemy to hit your military infrastructure without harming civilians. This discourages military action. But the purpose of the tunnels was closer to a "Crosshair Targeting System"...for which there is no name. The purpose was to use terror targets to guide the Israeli enemy's military force *towards* whatever would produce the most potent video. Sinwar was literally going to get his enemy to kill his own civilians in the most spectacular fashion possible. On video. From an "Eye for an Eye" to "Land for Peace" the world of war has always been transactional. But this was a new trade: "Lives for Video". Because what Sinwar saw is that if he used attrocities and hostages in tunnels, Israel would have no choice. It would have to kill his civilians. And in this war, the most potent weapon is neither planes, nor rockets, nor helicopters nor tanks. It's video. In the graphic below, you can see that no one was talking about "Suicide by Cop" before 1992. It was a mysterious concept. Why would anyone pull a toy gun on an officer or appear to threaten civilians when they would obligate a police officer to use deadly force? Eventually the idea of "Police-Assisted Suicide" dawned on people. It initially seemed too crazy to contemplate. But it works. I know very few young people read old Sherlock Holmes stories any more. But one reason we did was to learn how much creativity a diabolical mind can posses. I highly recommend "The Problem of Thor Bridge" from what I can recall of it. In this remarkable story, the villain uses suicide as a tool, to frame her victim for murder. To the best of my knowledge, this story has not been connected to what has unfolded over the last tragic year. Please have a read. You will see it immediately. I believe that Sinwar knew that he himself was commiting suicide. Such is in the nature of the region. This is not uncommon. But what he wanted was to force an artifical "Genocide". What is thus unusual is the level of ruthlessness, genius and innovation in a world already hungry to blame his enemy: Zugzwang.</br> Munchausen by Proxy.</br> Thor Bridge.</br> IDF assisted Suicide. People say the Israeli Pager/WalkieTalkie attacks which forced Nasrallah to meet with his leaders in person were brilliant. Perhaps. But I still think that Sinwar is even smarter. Consider after all just who he outsmarted. Genius. One must give this devil his due. Read the quoted tweet again a year later and tell me what you think. I think that all this was forseeable from before Israel ever crossed into Gaza. We just didn't have language for it. Just as in the graph below. |media1=ERW-X-post-1846814909096776062-GaEpeZIb0AEv0u5.jpg |media2=ERW-X-post-1846814909096776062-GaEsFv7b0AAcB76.png |timestamp=7:26 AM · Oct 17, 2024 }} {{Tweet |image=Eric profile picture.jpg |nameurl=https://x.com/EricRWeinstein/status/1846816327417450820 |name=Eric Weinstein |usernameurl=https://x.com/ericweinstein |username=ericweinstein |content=@Rookfromthebro1 I think that is correct.

I am actually right this very moment trying to get to the bottom of why America’s supposed greatest ally suddenly and inexplicably invaded Gaza and its peaceful government in October of 2023. This is however being frustrated by the Israelis. There is a vicious rumor (Hasbara!) spread by the occupying colonial power here in Tel Aviv that those foreigners vacationing in Gaza are being held hostage. It circulates under the phrase “Bring Them Home” and I am embarrassed to say that the rumor is EVERYWHERE! They even spread stories of Gazans protesting Hamas and holding them responsible for the devastation. Israelis are also making up stories that the hospitals, mosques, schools, old age homes, orphanages of Gaza are deliberately placed over military tunnels when we all know that Israel digs those elaborate tunnels themselves after the fact because they seek to slaughter Arab children. Those psychopaths also pretend that the UN and Press credentials are used as military strategies by the tolerant HAMAS organization which simply provides social services and paragliding instruction in the strip. Again: Hasbara. 🤷♀️ Have no fear. I will press the elders of Zion here harder and look for your answers to this spontaneous genocidal mania all the way from the river to the sea, and will get back to you with my findings.

To their credit, my Israeli hosts immediately responded by becoming open to him and asking whether he might want to visit Israel. I am not yet sure how he or I feel about that, but it is certainly to Israel's credit that it is confident that more contact and understanding would be a good thing. Darryl has asked me whether I think it might be a good idea for us to take our private association into the public..perhaps as an exchange of written communications. Perhaps in another form. I am considering it. I have not reached a decision. I wont say more about his suggestion as it is a private communication which I will keep private. I hesitate to ask @X / Twitter the question of what it thinks of this idea, as @X has become nearly unusable and overrun with relentless hate and abuse of Jews from anonymous, bot and bot-level accounts, in addition to "Hate Celebrities" (is ANYONE at @X tracking this and, if so, why is there no @grok-powered solution to filtering out the hate sewage??? It makes zero sense as @grok and @elonmusk could solve most of this with fewer than 20 lines of code, if @X doesn't want to harass its users with constant attacks and intimidation.). But that hate is relevant to this conversation as well. What do you all think about this matter? Is an exchange of interest?

How can anyone deny that there is suffering in Gaza?? I don’t see how this isn’t self-evident. Gazans are suffering *horrifically*. Let me put it as bluntly as I can: when Gaza suffers, Hamas rejoices. Hamas is the architect of the suffering, Israel is the chosen instrument in a strategy. Hamas is not suffering from Gaza suffering. Hamas is winning. Why would Hamas *ever* surrender from ordinary Gazans suffering, when IDF-assisted suicide is the *entire* point of this psychotic war?? Israel is winning the kinetic war. Hamas is winning the *hybrid* war. How is this happening with the world not understanding what is going on? Let me try a pop culture explanation. Previously I have pointed out that this is a well known strategy to use self harm as a strategy for winning. This is Sherlock Holmes “The problem of Thor Bridge.” 101. But if no one knows that reference, here is another pop culture one from the Breaking Bad/Better Call Saul universe: Hamas/Sinwar = Mike Ermentraut Netanyahu = Tuco Salamanca Tuco’s Fist = IDF Mike’s Face = Ordinary Gazans Mike’s Grabbing = Holding Hostages The Clueless Police = World Opinion Welcome to Hybrid War.

But it was *NOT* a genocide. It was a Hamas strategy to force Israel into Gaza. An attrocity to force the IDF into hybrid war. As ingenious as it was pure evil. Please don’t throw the term around like that the way the internet does. We Jews know genocide. October 7 wasn’t that. War is not genocide. Attrocity is not genocide. Mass destruction is not genocide. Even pure evil is not genocide. Genocide is something else. It will make lasting peace with Gazan Arabs harder to do, to cheapen the term further. They have already suffered greatly in war from my estimation, and I for one do not wish to needlessly make their suffering even worse. Have some compassion man. Not all of them support Hamas. They suffer from Hamas as much as anyone. Thank you for your understanding.

Stand up to these anti-Jewish voices who claim that there are no Jews who want to make persecution of their Christian brothers a top line issue. We are here. Where are you??

And worked into the beautiful stained glass windows of that church was an American Soldier. It was a very odd thing to see in a church. He was not saying “America First”. We don’t even know his religion but we can guess it from likelihoods. He was strong and determined and trampling on the flag of a regime that would have slaughtered me and all of my family. And I seated myself in the pew that faced him out of gratitude. It was one hell of an advertisement for the wonders and decency within Christianity. The right way to fight the evil that is now being targeted at Jews and Israel is not to blame Christians because our aggressors claim to be soldiers for Christ. Paradoxically it is to go to actual churches. Go for services. Shake hands with actual believers. Make eye contact rather than trading posts here on @X And for Jews and Atheists, somewhat counterintuitively, to work to *strengthen* Christianity. To say “How can we help?” without needing to join up. We Jews and Athiests are very lucky to live in a Christian Substrate. It has its serious risks and its downsides. I’m not unaware of low points in our long intertwined histories. But on balance we need *stronger* churches, and *stronger* communities with stronger families. The people threatening us at every turn at the moment are not generally, in my experience, regular churchgoers. They wouldn’t last a minute acting like that. It’s inconceivable. So, if you are a Jew or Athiest feeling terrified of what is going on, I’m am coming out of my church-going closet to make a recommendation: pick a mainstream church with a coffee shop or a charity or a music group and go hang out with our real Christian communities. Not the ones overrunning @X. Welcoming communities with brick and mortar in your own town or city. You won’t regret it. If I’m am not wrong, let’s help these fine people get stronger and not weaker. Even if that feels a bit weird given the increased threats. Not just because it is a good move.

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.

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.

Even for jews. |media=ERW-X-post-2019439515384054238-HAZ9iW0awAAq6oN.jpg |timestamp=3:54 PM · Feb 05, 2026 }} {{Tweet |image=grok-profile.jpg |nameurl=https://x.com/grok/status/2019439752865329356 |name=Grok |usernameurl=https://x.com/grok |username=grok |content=Absolutely, it's a profound honor. "Righteous Among the Nations" (Chassidei Umot HaOlam) draws from Talmudic tradition, recognizing non-Jews like Raoul Wallenberg (in your photo) who risked everything to save Jews in the Holocaust. "Nations" collectively means the non-Jewish world—individuals shining as righteous among the goyim. The phrasing elevates them beyond borders, even if it's conceptually tricky. Thoughts on examples like him? |timestamp=3:55 PM · Feb 05, 2026 }} {{Tweet |image=Eric profile picture.jpg |nameurl=https://x.com/EricRWeinstein/status/2019441560811655552 |name=Eric Weinstein |usernameurl=https://x.com/ericweinstein |username=ericweinstein |content=@grok Nope.
