Seems like if you're going to make a national story out of Hasan Piker, who campaigned a few times with the Democratic Senate candidate in Michigan, saying Israel causes antisemitism, you should also make a national story out of the favorite intellectual of the US Vice President supporting Hitler.

Here’s Chris Rufo and his podcast co-host addressing “the Indian question,” a reference to “the Jewish question.” That question was whether Jews could be incorporated into European society, and the Nazis were the ones who claimed to have developed the “final solution” to that “problem.”

He’s on a quest to live forever.
Mr. Emanuel’s morning routine involves waking up at 4 a.m., stretching for 40 minutes and then doing breath work, sauna, meditation, an ice plunge and infrared light therapy before ingesting a protein shake and a cup of live worms to fight off “the bad bacteria in my gut.” He describes a recent lunch with his old CAA boss, Michael Ovitz. Mr. Emanuel writes: “He goes to the gym; he thinks that means he’s taking care of himself. But it doesn’t. I scold him. He hasn’t gotten his blood work done in years, he isn’t doing ice plunges, he isn’t doing daily breath work, he isn’t fasting. And he needs to be eating worms.”

Tucker has peddled white supremacist, antidemocratic, eugenicist, sexist, and utterly fascist ideas for many, many years, and the moment he starts offering the fascist feint that just gets memory-holed, which I think says a lot about the people who are willing and eager to go along with this.

I really appreciate the transparency but I also think having a semi-serious reputation should make any publication think twice about publishing a Sellner Guy who writes for a pro-Active Club blog. They also didn't have to look into his education to see his published "work" is generic ai ragebait.

There is no more evidence that 8% of Canadians oppose ethnic cleansing that ~0% do. But one of Canada's biggest newspapers thinks there's value in publishing an argument hinging on that fictional stat, which their author made up for the sake of writing the article.

Daniel Robson @dancollen.bsky.social · 12/09/2026
The National Post published an article defending the white nationalist Dominion Society because, they propose, 8% of Canadians *could,* "for argument's sake" support ethnic cleansing—meaning it's more popular than the NDP. They Included a legal argument but did not disclose the author was disbarred.
Polls have shown that roughly half of Canadians believe immigration levels are too high. Let’s say for argument’s sake that only eight per cent of Canadians support remigration, and 92 per cent oppose it. Should having only eight per cent support for your opinion mean losing your right to rent government-owned facilities, and to use public spaces like parks and sidewalks?

If yes, then no government facilities should be available for rental by the NDP, which garnered only 6.3 per cent of the popular vote in Canada’s most recent federal election. Almost 94 per cent of Canadians rejected the NDP in 2025. Yet the NDP is not disqualified from being able to exercise its Charter freedoms of expression, association and peaceful assembly.

There's a perception from people like Elon that Judaism is something people can pretend their way into- the obvious implication from this is that they think it is *benificial* for ill-intended whites to pretend to be Jewish. That lens is more telling than the pseudoscience imo.

A few years back Canadian tankie Twitter was doing Open Source RUMINT to prove a zionist Jewish columnist was not *really* Jewish, because one of his grandmother's obituaries mentioned Christianity. Largely, Jews do not care. We're nearly all mixed background. This shit is weird.

Increasingly, the best way to explain to regular people how antisemites think about Judaism is not as a religion, but as a blood marker, which is really what they see every other identity though. The closest parallel to how antisemites see converts might be how society sees pretendians.
