4) Midrash Sefre. Rabbi Yossi HaGalili: אצל שופט שלא נמצא בימיו? אלא שופט שהוא כשר (ומוחזק) באותן הימים. היה קרוב ונתרחק - כשר. [דבר אחר, אין לך אלא שופט שבימיך.] — PolitiTweet.org

@ofer_rubin אמר רבי יוסי הגלילי, וכי תעלה על דעתך, שאדם הולך אצל שופט שלא נמצא בימיו? אלא שופט שהוא כשר (ומוחזק) באותן הימים. היה קרוב ונתרחק - כשר. [דבר אחר, אין לך אלא שופט שבימיך.] — PolitiTweet.org

@AgnesCallard There is something YOU are not getting, aside from your defective anachronistic reasoning: the NYT DOES NOT publish stuff outside very very narrow parameters (I have 5 Op-Eds there). — PolitiTweet.org

@ggreenwald They filter Op-Eds, do refuse mine systematically. I published 5 Op-Eds there in the past when the opinion was lined up to theirs. My point isn't the opinion but the very idea of having to debate canceling a past figure. — PolitiTweet.org

3) The Wahabis destroyed ancient ruins in Saudi Arabia (including Islamic ones) to "prevent" idolatry. Soon we will be bulldozing ruins built by slaves (Great Pyramid/Coliseum), then structures built by labor w/o medical benefits, then those by nonvegetarian architects. — PolitiTweet.org

The NYT suggests cancelling Aristotle. This is retrospective bigotteering; it implies moral values DO NOT evolve. People need to be judged with respect to the morals OF THEIR OWN TIME. (But we can be harsh w/Napoleon who reinstated slavery.) https://t.co/FYpfsnUldP — PolitiTweet.org
