    I had a look at his recent tweets to see if I could find something funny or dunkworthy or notable. He’s an obnoxious, repulsive, self-righteous, right-wing Jewish guy. Oddly he didn’t go to Harvard. He went to Yale. Somebody quoted this to him.

    Yale is also where Sibarium fell in love with philosophy, which in turn, nurtured his “visceral” opposition to wokeness. “I was the kid who really liked just taking nerdy analytic philosophy classes and debating crazy, esoteric, and at times perhaps even offensive thought experiments.” He says the culture of speech-stifling that took place and still takes place at Yale (and many other schools) made fun, clarifying and potentially morbid intellectual conversations (he brought up a thought experiment about whether to shoot a baby strapped to the front of a tank heading toward you) rarer and more fraught.

    And his reply was…

    Yeah, imagine thinking that thought experiments about human shields have any relevance to current events.
