Description

What was supposed to be an informal QnA about the “Israel/Palestine ABCs” episode, turned into a What is Politics “live” brainstorm session à la Matt Christman “grillstream,” where I discuss my arguments and readings on who and what started the Israel/Palestine conflict which will appear in more detail (and coherence) in the next scripted episode.   At 5hrs long, I didn’t even get to the QnAs yet … oops!





0:00 intro: ‘why is everything so stupid and shitty?’ / the “alignment problem” of our society





12:46 the social function of academia and universities from pre-WWII to today





31:17 freedom of speech is to protect the weak





41:06 recent activism victories regarding the assault on gaza (Canada and USA)





49:10 why i’m doing “brainstorm” episodes in between scripted episodes





1:10:00 Israel Palestine disinformation in news and history





1:20:40 why the assault on gaza is pure sadistic revenge and does the opposite of its purported goal of protecting israelis





1:31:38 war and violence





1:36:00 what israel could have done in response to oct. 7





1:45:50 who started the israel/palestine conflict?
