🚨 The Secret Origins of Robin DiAngelo's White "Anti-Racist" Cult
You've heard that it's impossible to be racist against white people. That all white people are inherently racist. That the only solution is to "do the work."
Where did this all come from? You might know of
@CatholicOrca
Orthodox Jews are very much not atheists, but they do treat god like a hall monitor. This is in line with the Old Testament, which becomes even more restrictive as filtered through the Talmud.
In my experience being raised in it, it’s the least spiritual of all major religions.
Obviously enormous numbers of Jewish-Americans harbor dual-loyalty towards Israel.
Myself and many thousands of young Jewish-Americans were sent to explicitly Zionist private schools. My school consistently flew the Israeli flag next to the American flag, whenever the American
I'm hesitant to enter into the argument between Tucker and Shapiro, but here goes. Questions of dual-loyalty are always tricky, and they have frequently led to the bouts of paranoid persecution we now remember in shame. But while some topics must be handled with great care, none
Why the right-wing desperately needs more atheism 🧵🧵🧵
The rise of woke ideology is often considered by its opponents to be a result of religion’s decline. In the absence of the deeper meaning from traditional religions, a new “secular” religion has arisen to provide it. 1/10

Today’s Jews overwhelmingly aren’t indigenous to Palestine and have most of their ancestral origin from elsewhere, but let’s ignore that for a second.
In the late 1800’s/early 1900’s, Jews were largely welcomed by Palestinians. There was already an “Old Yishuv” of Jews living
Being a Jew without Israel is like being a Māori without Aotearoa (New Zealand).
You cannot sever an indigenous people from their native land.

This is important to honoring what FF7 is supposed to be.

We desperately need to be able to offer a right-wing, liberty-oriented, meaning-making worldview that is atheist in nature. We need more Ayn Rands.

This is very silly. It shows ignorance of the differences between Arab subgroups (Jews have ethnic subgroups too: Ashkenazi, Sephardi, etc.) as well as the process of ethnogenesis which clearly advanced in reaction to and during the period of early Zionism.
I was raised Orthodox Jewish. Let me explain their thinking on their terms, and then why their thinking is harmful:
Judaism is largely organized around following religious law (halacha) perfectly. As god is omniscient, they do not see anything allowed by the law as a “loophole,”
“This is not a loophole”—no, this literally is the textbook definition of a loophole.

In the post-enlightenment era of science and rationality, the blind faith required by the old religions is utterly unconvincing to the vast majority of people not already indoctrinated.
However, many of the values and ideas embedded in old religions remain appealing. 4/10
If you believe Zionism is the return of Jews to their ancestral homeland, you’re 100% wrong.
In fact, there’s no historical evidence that the Jews were expelled from ancient Judea, but there is evidence that Judaism was for centuries a proselytizing religion that converted many
You can see this clearly, for example, through the popularity of

So the idea that the absence of the old religions necessarily leads to woke or far-leftist belief systems is nonsense.

I fully agree. As
@JohnHMcWhorter
explains in “Woke Racism,” Critical Social Justice has all the features of a religion.
This leads most on the Right to the conclusion that if the decline of Judeo-Christianity is the cause of the problem, then it’s also the solution. 2/10
Ayn Rand, perhaps the most consistent and systematic defender of views we would now consider vehemently anti-woke, was also the Right’s most radical atheist.
And she was just one in a long line of atheist, agnostic, or deist (non-Judeo-Christian) classical liberals. 8/10

This seems logical, especially to those currently still in Judeo-Christianity, but it’s very wrong.
It ignores all the reasons for the old religions’ decline, and why they have thus far failed to prevent the old religions’ supplantation with Critical Social Justice. 3/10
Worse, the majority of people with the correct views on individualism and liberty are locked up in these unpersuasive religions, leaving few to make more compelling arguments.
Many people would argue they only have these values because of their religion, but they’re wrong. 7/10

In this clip, Destiny pauses me the second I mention the Hannibal Directive to shout “OH MY GOD” and complain that it has “never manifested in all of Israeli military history,” is a “theoretical doctrine,” and that I don’t have any “evidence of it existing,” only to unpause and
The belief that one’s feelings are always “valid” is at the root of immense harm being done to our society’s mental health. Sadly, this belief has become so ingrained as a moral truth in some people’s world view that to challenge it is taken as a personal attack.
No, your feelings are not “valid.”
• Feelings are often irrational.
• Emotions don’t always reflect reality.
• If your feelings are always “valid” then why bother examining them or yourself?
• Instead of labelling them “valid” & demanding others agree: learn to manage them.
Destiny stops watching my video shortly after that, perhaps in frustration over losing to my recording in the prior clip.
