    Google Gemini AI's Refusal to Translate my latest Podcast Title with Robert Spencer, Sparks Controversy Over Alleged Hate Speech and Islamophobia, Prompting Debate on Context and Censorship in Language Processing Technology
    ------
    If you want to protect your family from these harmful woke policies, seeking residency in a country outside of the self-sabotaging West, as a plan B (or A) is a great idea. I recently acquired a Mexican residency for that reason (and many more). The Mexico Relocation Guide by the Mexican-American solopreneur Marianna Lange has been extremely helpful. It gives access to a long list of contacts and elaborate explanations of everything you need to know to get your Mexican residency and eventually settle in this amazing, growing, NON-WOKE country. It also gives you access to a very active & helpful online community. The only thing I regret about this guide is not buying it earlier. It would have saved me time and money.

    In this episode of the Kate Wand podcast, Prof. Benjamin Ginsberg joins me to discuss his new upcoming book: The New American Anti-Semitism: The Left, the Right, and the Jews.

    We discuss the historical roots of anti-Zionism and anti-Semitism within progressive circles, and on the right, examining these phenomena through the psychological lens of projection. We trace the transformative journey of Israel from its origins as a socialist state to its current status as a key ally of the United States. This transition has sparked a variety of responses, including resentment towards Jews.

    Benjamin explores the nuances of this resentment and the challenges Jewish communities face in maintaining their identity amidst shifting political landscapes. Join us as we navigate the intricate interplay between ideology, identity, and international politics, offering insights into one of the most contentious issues of our time.

    Read Benjamin Ginsberg's book:
    https://www.independent.org/store/book.asp?id=144

    Benjamin Ginsberg is a prolific writer, author of multiple books, and Research Fellow at the Independent Institute. He is also the David Bernstein Professor of Political Science and Chair of the Center for Advanced Governmental Studies at Johns Hopkins University.
