We’re seeing harmful populist policies proposed from both parties. Usual big open letters of economists are signed in support/opposing a single candidate. Would be great to have a big joint open letter against bad populist policies on all sides. #EconTwitter

@MarioNawfal In any honest analysis, you must compare IDF’s response w/ other militaries under similar circumstances. If you look at all the actions IDF has taken to minimize casualties (dropping leaflets, escorting civilians etc), Israel compares favorably to most countries.

@Mario_Macis I partly agree. But, equity is not focused on “providing equal opportunities”. The objective of equity is equalizing outcomes.

If the Pogrom comes, Israel will still accept you, despite your blood libels, because that’s why it was created…

@mattyglesias I don’t like the way “Zionism” is used. Israel already exists. “Anti-Zionism” would’ve been relevant before 1948. Now, if you oppose the existence of Israel, you are “Anti-Israel”. The only way that’s possible is a Genocide of Israeli Jews

I wish more ppl understood this paradigm that young people are being taught: Ppl w/ less money/power/darker skin are automatically being oppressed In this paradigm even the atrocities of Oct 7 are justified bc they were committed by “oppressed” against “oppressors”

If we really care about Palestinian civilians & protecting Israel from Hamas why can’t the US pressure Egypt to make a temporary refugee camp for Gazans in the Sinai? Two birds, one stone…
