Amazing how many articles are just “I’m a white guy who didn’t get the promotion I wanted and the only answer to this problem that concerns every single one of us is to re-segregate the workplace”

the return of anti-semitism is probably permanent due to a confluence of several structural reasons:
- fading of the living memory of the holocaust
- the end of liberal hegemony
- Israel's behavior (esp when it equates zionism w judaism)
- tech-driven conspiratorial epistemic fragmentation

He respects the idea of a "skilled gambler" more than hard work.
Particularly when that work comes from a woman.

The "market niche" he is describing is like 10% of the entire US population, and capable of mobilizing millions. The only possible interpretation of "niche" here is "people I think should be marginalized".

Hi: speaking as a Jew, not giving a fuck about ICE raids or Trump shitting on the Constitution because there are also antisemites in the world is a you issue. Don't you fucking blame your choices on us
This is why I can't muster much give-a-fuck about ICE raids or anything that Trump is doing.
