    You could have great historians and social scientists talking about these issues but instead let's get random ass YouTubers like Ben Shapiro and fucking Destiny lmao.

    Fuck me, I wish I was a talentless cis white guy so I could be handed platforms on issues I have no expertise on without earning it.

      It shows the hand so well that the obvious choices to defend Palestine are noted academics and historians, and the choice to defend isntrael are rabid propagandists and media freaks.

        If I was being generous I'd say this guy is trying to stack the deck in favor of Palestine (an easy thing to do honestly), but realistically it's just for views.

        Even Einstein called their fascist asses out when the whole idea of Israel was being debated on back in the day.

      Douglas Murray is a literal fascist and an openly anti-Muslim racist. He likes to pitch himself as a historian but most of his books are bunk made up of Reddit-tier race IQ and crime statistics garbage.
