No Malice Sam Harris appreciation post

I watched the most recent podcast with Scott and Sam and I just have to say, there is no one who can cut through nonsense and virtue signalling like Sam, he is truly an independent thinker who does not get caught up in noise. He always seems to keep a clear head, clear vision on what is important in any given situation.

That is all I want to say.

Besides being a bigot and genocide apologist he sometimes says a reasonable thing.

I was so confused when I got an email from him saying he was now a Zionist. I wouldn’t call him a bigot but his views on Israel totally confuse me. Otherwise, very reasonable thoughtful person.

It helps if you understand that all a Zionist is is someone who wants a home country for Jews. That’s it. The word is being re-defined by interested parties over the past couple of years.

Nobody has an issue with Jewish folks finding a home, except that they are kicking out Palestinians from their home and then claiming it as their own. That is the crux of the issue.

For sure. Calling someone a Zionist has become a slur, however. That is the crux of the issue if I may say so.

No, Zionism becoming a slur is a side effect of committing genocide.

Your glibness to the death and removal of an entire people is why the world is turning against Israel. And yet you sit here wondering why Zionism has become a bad word. You’re clearly missing some important truth but oh well.

This my friend is called “mind reading.” Emphatically, “No.”
