The Rest Is Politics

Can Rory please walk across Israel sometime? I’m neither Jewish nor Muslim, and it’s clear he is a good man who thinks he’s unbiased. Today’s show quoted numbers that seemed to cast Antisemitic attacks and Islamophobic attacks as equal concerns, leaving out context that in the 2021 census data for England and Wales, there were about 3.9 million Muslims, and 280 thousand Jews. So overall attacks are shockingly higher on Jews. There’s a word for that. What is the phenomenon called when you believe a few Jews are far more powerful than the enormous mass of victims around them?

Generally, I appreciate this show very much because of its incisive analysis of many issues worldwide. However, I have to take exception with today’s episode covering the reaction to the war in the US. Most of us are very worried about the war and its costs worldwide. However, remember everything that is happening in the US right now. We have women losing their reproductive rights. We have Congress and the administration trying to decrease access to voting, we have the Epstein files, we have concentration camps, popping up everywhere, we have a Gestapo terrorizing the streets, we have a manosphere that is making life difficult for women, we have a president who is grifting everyone, and major institutions bending me to a tyrant. There’s not very much intellectual room for just one topic.

Their opinions are irrelevant and stuck in the 90s. The have elitist attitudes and are very small minded.
