@SamAdlerBell “Jews” being the key word there! But we’re reaching the limits of complexity that can be effectively conveyed on Twitter — PolitiTweet.org
Zack Beauchamp @zackbeauchamp
@Nate_Cohn @_waleedshahid @mattyglesias it's not "contributed," it's literally the foundation of it. the evidence is really clear that post-civil rights realignment and the emergence of sorted parties, both ideologically and sociologically, was the necessary and sufficient condition for extreme polarization — PolitiTweet.org
Zack Beauchamp @zackbeauchamp
@SamAdlerBell I think in the progressive political environment you and I inhabit, many people really do not take anti-Semitism seriously at all — and that a tremendous amount of good could be done by correcting that. So, yes! Disagreement. — PolitiTweet.org
Zack Beauchamp @zackbeauchamp
@OrNistar @SamAdlerBell There's a fine line between arguing for the importance of taking Jewish suffering on its own terms and a dismissal of the idea that our experiences connect to universal values. I think her argument, at least as expressed during our call, stays on the right side of it. — PolitiTweet.org
Zack Beauchamp @zackbeauchamp
@OrNistar @SamAdlerBell I agree with most of that! And I also agree there's a kind of right-wing Jewish argument — most visibly on display in revisionist Zionism — that makes the move you're describing. I don't actually think Horn is guilty of it. — PolitiTweet.org
Zack Beauchamp @zackbeauchamp
@SamAdlerBell I agree, and I think Horn does too. My view is that the former is far too common, especially in a political context that doesn't take anti-Semitism very seriously, and worth challenging. — PolitiTweet.org
Zack Beauchamp @zackbeauchamp
@SamAdlerBell She sees herself doing what you describe, correcting the ways in which invocations of historic Jewish suffering (often unintentionally) obscure or downplay Jewish humanity. Per your comments, there might be a difference of opinion on the need for highlighting Jewish experience. — PolitiTweet.org
Zack Beauchamp @zackbeauchamp
@OrNistar @SamAdlerBell No, that analysis involves stripping out the broader cultural context that makes her arguments intelligible. It's like arguing that you can simply swap "white" and "black" in a sentence about race without profoundly changing the meaning. — PolitiTweet.org
Zack Beauchamp @zackbeauchamp
@SamAdlerBell Normative: making a judgment about solidarity as an abstract or moral value. Descriptive: analyzing the way that specific claims about solidarity are deployed and what effects those particular claims have in context. — PolitiTweet.org

@Bernstein i have seen a lot of bad tweets on the subject this week and yours doesn't rank in the top 20, it was confusing rather than being stupid — PolitiTweet.org
Zack Beauchamp @zackbeauchamp
@SamAdlerBell I don't think that's true. Horn is not making a normative argument but an analytic one about the way this type of thing gets deployed discursively and culturally. Also in general I think you're misreading the piece! — PolitiTweet.org

@_waleedshahid that's a depressingly good theory — PolitiTweet.org

@BenjySarlin That's her comment in the piece. Personally, I"m torn between "genuinely unsure as to how this could be read as anti-Semitic" as "Boebert is a weirdo who says weird offensive stuff all the time" — PolitiTweet.org

It’s time to start thinking about ways to save democracy other than a big new voting rights bill. Here are some concrete ideas. https://t.co/oXD8XcOOLd — PolitiTweet.org

Sometimes I get the sense that people want Biden to openly commit to a military response, as if playing escalation chicken with a nuclear power is at all responsible — PolitiTweet.org

Some of the Ukraine debate seems to be falling into the "do something" trap, where people want Biden to be generically stronger without being able to clearly articulate what a better alternative looks like — PolitiTweet.org
