@RobertMackey In his recent interview with Piers Morgan, Andrew Tate said he did not feel safe walking around London, even tho he had 6 bodyguards. He blamed a UK crimewave. Such a farfetched claim. I said to myself, only a hardcore criminal would talk like that.

@SamSeder I watched your show Sam. And I watched Dr Peterson's interview. Never did he say he wanted women to go back to being property. It was nothing more than a momentary thought experiment as to why a certain system may have existed in the past or been considered fruitful.

@yanisvaroufakis Which is why it would be better if the Palestinians accept that Israel will continue to exist, recognise it and make a great state themselves. Win-Win.

@chelseahartisme @SecBlinken The reality you are missing is this: Sometimes a country has to put its own interests first. eg not being targeted by a nuke. And it sometimes has to do this even though bad things are happening. Being an idealist is not always gonna be possible. Hard decisions are part of life.

@rebaillieu @AlboMP Transgenderism is just so under-defined, Rob. Stats in the West broadly show about 75% of ppl who id as transgender have not medicalised at all. They are simply cross dressers. Wearing a dress does not a new gender make.

@MattLech He is not wrong.I used to only listen to Majority Report. Then I branched out. Listening to others as well. And the lack of reading the left does on topics is not small. The right does know stuff the left is missing. It goes the other way too - but not as much as the left thinks.

@BriannaWu Also, when you realise over 800k Jews were expelled from or fled Arab states around the same period (I don't care why it happened, what matters is that it happened). it becomes clearer that much of this is just antisemitism.

@aziz0nomics I'm Gen X. Most of my generation spent decades looking at Arafat wearing it, while blowing up alot of Jews. In the West he was as reviled and famous as Putin is today. So, personally, I do consider it a terrorist scarf. I don't know how to shake that.

@DaveMilbo Here's what you are missing: Boomers & Gen X were raised on seeing Arafat wear the keffiyah, while blowing up alot Jews and rejecting peace deals even Arab nations couldn't believe he turned down. He was as famous & reviled as Putin is today. And he was moderate compared to Hamas.

@stillgray This is a generation gap. Gen X and Boomers often don't 'identify' as anything. It is not how we talked for most of our lives. We didn't try to put ourselves into a 'please, define me' box using race. if we did define ourselves, it was using star signs or what band we liked.

@SenatorThorpe Most of the Lebanese community hate Hezbollah. It has KILLED over a dozen politicians in recent years. Terrorises Lebanon. But Lidia doesn't care. Lidia wants Jews to have Hezbollah shoot thousands of rockets at them since Oct 7. and just take it. That's what she wants.

@MichaelWestBiz Michael still thinks Iran is just looking for a Palestinian state. Newsflash: They r not. Islamism, which exists in Iran and Afghanistan, mandates that the holy men run the govt. It is BANNED in Egypt, Jordan & many other Arab states. Islamists want to destroy Israel and Jews.

@PhillipAdams_1 It seems weird that a person who hates religion as much as Philip would want a new Islamist state to crop up - like Iran & Afghanistan. Islamism is banned in most of the Arab states. But Phillip supports them. Weird.

They are a product of the rise of Islamist theocrats, banned even in Egypt, which is why it also built a wall between itself and Gaza. They hate Jews, gays and women's rights.

@MazMHussain Sure. But he assigns no agency to Palestinian society or its leaders who have stolen billions. He's oblivious that the Gaza wall and WB checkpoints only came to be after Hamas started blowing things up. Nor that checkpoints at international borders are pretty common.

@marquelawyers Being phobic of some things culturally associated with Islam is, dare I say, good. Even ex-muslims and moderate muslims will tell you that. Ask women in Afghanistan or the 86% of married women in Egypt who have been forced to undergo FGM. For starters.
