        God, these people are so depressing. When I first looked, I'd assumed she was an anonymous troll, but apparently she's real.

        I was only joking

            From the WiKi link:

            She has published in the Duginist Journal of Eurasian Affairs…

            That alone is enough for me, thank you.

                Serious question, I’d like all to weigh in.

                If publicly pushing the ‘river to sea’ message should render her unemployable as she’s a threat to Jewish patients, what about a physician who advocates the Jolly solution on their social media?

                Whoa, wait a minute. You are starting with a false premise. As far as I can tell, nobody was dismissed for promoting “From the River to the Sea”. They were dismissed for celebrating, promoting, and glorifying the murders, beheadings, rapes, and tortures of over 1200 innocent children, men, and women. They are rejoicing in the savage beheading of a grandmother, whose killers used the woman’s own phone to video the killing and then posted the video to the woman’s Facebook account and sharing it to her friends and family via messenger. They referred to this as a glorious day and a good start. That’s why they were dismissed. And quite frankly, anybody that celebrates and revels in that butchery is either insane or has no place living in a modern western liberal nation.

                      Have we reached a point where the pendulum of "cancel culture" has swung too far to the opposite end?

                          Of course it did. My question is whether the swing back is too extreme.

                              We’ve always had “cancel culture” in the sense that there were always things you could espouse that would get you kicked out of institutions.

                              What changed in 2020 (starting earlier than that, to be sure) is that a small ideological minority got significant control of the “institutional overton window” (if I may coin a phrase) and started canceling people for espousing opinions that had significant, even majority support.

                                  That’s still a far cry from simply espousing “From the River to the Sea” which many people just take to mean the abolishment of Israel and the establishment of a Palestinian/Arab nation…

                                    Natural language is as precise a carrier of information as a computer programming language. Therefore when the receiver of the information compiles the language into the wrong ideas, the fault is in the receiver and their compiler. Error 42, straw man response. Abort, cancel, retry? The AIs responding to you all have faulty compilers.

                                    Education is extremely important.

                                        Y'all keep trying to apply rational solutions to an irrational problem.

                                        It doesn't matter what the Israelis do, we do, the world does, the Palestinians (for lack of a better term, since Palestine is mostly a British construct) hate the Jews. A visceral, religion-driven hate. Many of them live to kill Jews. Proud to kill Jews. Many times, in the most grotesque and painful way possible.

                                        The Israelis will do their best to root Hamas out. They'll get a lot of them. If they're lucky, maybe a majority. But the seeds of hatred are still there. How long before the rocket attacks begin again? How long before another terrorist invasion starts? How many times does it have to happen, before effective counter measures are enacted?

                                        If the Palestinians wish to live in peace, that's wonderful. Give them aid - medical, food, fuel, electricity, material goods, housing - but don't give them a penny of money. If they do not wish to live in peace, let Israel annex the West Bank as a sovereign part of Israel and let them deal with the Palestinians as they wish.

                                        Personally, I think the only way to permanently deal with the situation is to make the Palestinians A)leave or B) die.

                                        Hey, Putin seems to like them. There's a lot of land in East Russia...

                                        “Cry havoc and let slip the DOGE of war!”

                                          I do know this much. When a bunch of dark age barbarians pull what happened on October 7th, the collective response from the Western World needs to be “Oh, hell no!” and the capacity for those people to do more of the same needs to be ended. Period. There is no room for “well, the Israelis deserved it” nope. Full stop right there. Now you are actively condoning and encouraging more of the same.

                                          There is zero moral equivalence between the two sides in this war. And if you don’t see that, then you have either a weak will or a weak mind.
