“The Israel discussion was revealing in that this current crisis has separated the heterodox journalists from the contrarian hacks, with this pod firmly in the latter.
The hosts, normally sceptical of unevidenced claims, have now adopted the stance that everything everywhere is antisemitic all of the time, by default.
We’re living through mass hysterical online cancel culture of anti-apartheid campaigners (and now anti-genocide campaigners), but there’s no way this ‘heterodox’ podcast will cover it because they don’t want to get alienated by their fellow travellers.
I suppose it pays to stay on Bari Weiss’ good side more than it does to have principles.”
