@tracewoodgrains I wonder how this tweet is going to age :).
@tracewoodgrains We never did hear an ostensible explanation for the shenanigans at Fulton County. And yes Trump and his legal team were a trainwreck. But we never even got an excuse. It's just never been addressed. youtu.be/Vq1QvLdznyo?si…
@tracewoodgrains Right. Irrational though it may be to support genocide because some of its opponents are daft, it might happen. So - shut up, lefty idiots. If advocating white ethnic interests would undermine Zionism, I'd do it. The current epoch is resolving long-unresolved ethical issues.
@tracewoodgrains @thelongnshort_ Traveling today but will respond to this soon.
idk what to say but writing helps I keep almost calling her she was the sort of person you wanted around for death
my mom passed away last night she had a stroke on Thursday morning my dad, my brother, and her childhood best friend were with her; I'm flying home today
@tracewoodgrains i understand words have meaning but this seems semantic nitpicking. extremist === dogmatic even in face of reality, even delusional/moderate === not dogmatic but has principles and willing to work for a mutually acceptable equilibrium with those that have diff values/no buy in
@tracewoodgrains True, but if moderates get an upper hand, a movement can quickly become tepid and eventually irrelevant. See the trajectory of the GOP before Trump. The US was on the verge of becoming a uniparty state.
@tracewoodgrains i was just thinking about those Charlottesville idiots. they handed such a gift to the democrats while the BLM riots were a gift to the right. & now, anti-Israel/zionist activists are going all out to elect Trump. they could really tip things in his favor.
@tracewoodgrains If the choices are "Wonder Woman's people are being raped & murdered over a land dispute, send help!" OR Khymani "I'm Confused, but the whole world should be like Haiti; here is a list of people I would kill" James... It's not that simple, o/c, but people don't think very much.
@tracewoodgrains The generalized conflation of radicalism with extremism (as seen in some replies here+common usage) has always annoyed me. Radicalism is focus on core fundamentals.
@tracewoodgrains In general, I think “dogmatism” is a good concept here. It highlights the difference between adhering to a rational principle which integrates a huge amount of knowledge and a mindless adherence to rules designed to short-cut cognition
@tracewoodgrains Yes, hence the temptation to be an agent provocateur or do a false flag op.
going to parties full of people from your phone where you introduce yourself by your phone pseudonym and talking about your “opsec”…………..okay
@rodthelimey @tracewoodgrains You underestimate how fickle the average person can be
@tracewoodgrains "Sure, I kicked that baby in the head but that's pretty tame when you contrast me with Al Qaeda"
@tracewoodgrains There are two types of extremism: extremist ideologies and extremist methods (riots, assassination, rape).
@tracewoodgrains "Khymani James advanced the pro-Israel cause" Some people, who would have opposed genocide, decided to support it because some of its opponents are daft yank leftists?
@tracewoodgrains For left-moderates in particular, there's a lot of attempted rationalizing that their extremists don't mean what they say The flood of normielibs into r/antiwork because "they don't actually mean not working at all, right?" as well as "defund the police", pro Hamas nonsense etc.
Both this thread and the quoted one are well worth reading. It's a failure of modern education that kids don't understand the basic principles of rhetoric and persuasion, which are even more important in our time where there is less of a shared civil religion to appeal to.
Extremists think their side’s moderates need them. It’s often the opposite: the other side’s moderates need them. It is dramatically easier to persuade someone against a cause if you can point to abhorrent behavior from its advocates. Khymani James advanced the pro-Israel cause
