“What’s it called when you go out into the forest and other men follow you? Leadership. What’s it called if the same man goes out into the forest on his own? A walk.”
Fredrik Backman, The Winners

Gad Saad
“Several years ago, Tal Nitzan, then a doctoral student at Hebrew University, authored an award-winning paper that examined the incidence of rape as perpetrated by Israeli Defense Forces on Palestinian women. Undoubtedly, the goal was to uncover an epidemic of rape to demonstrate how diabolical those evil Jews truly were. When no such empirical reality was found, it was concluded (you might need to sit down for this) that this was proof of the extent to which the Israelis dehumanized the Palestinians.59 They were so hateful that they did not even consider the Palestinian women worthy of rape! If rapes are uncovered or if none are discovered, the same conclusion is reached: the Israelis are diabolical. All roads lead to self-flagellation and self-loathing. It’s the hallmark of a true “progressive.”

“[I]s it not the case that we live in an age of emotional incontinence, when they who emote the most are believed to feel the most?”

“Tolerance of intolerance is cowardice.”

“To criticize Islam does not make you an Islamophobe (a nonsensical term) nor a hater of individual Muslims. To scrutinize radical feminism does not make you a misogynist. To question open borders does not make you a racist. You can have an open heart filled with empathy and compassion and yet reject open borders. To assert that trans women (biological males) should not be competing in athletic competitions with biological females does not make you a transphobe.”
Gad Saad, The Parasitic Mind: How Infectious Ideas Are Killing Common Sense
