#32Having just read it, this sounds like a mental health issue to me. It's well outside the bounds of opinion, even a ridiculous or hateful opinion. I worry that people are running to mock this guy because they want to portray these views as the kind of things their opponents actually think, while in reality there is clearly something wrong with him and he may need some compassion. This is not a fringe opinion, there is…

Will you please stop lumping vast groups of people together as if they share a hive mind? That's like saying every Democrat on the planet lives their lives by the tenets of the 1619 project. It's ridiculous.

#34> Yes. I sent it. I have nothing but love for the Jewish people. Some of my closest friends are Jews. Satire has nothing on this article
I genuinely believe that these people see "the Jews" and "Jewish people" as two entirely separate concepts in their head. One is the group of people they may know, hang out with, be friends with, and one is the concept of evil brought up by conspiracy nuts that get associated with murdering babies and widespread paedophilia. I've read an article, linked here during the Trump administration, about people of Mexican or…
I saw a video about this years ago by some racist idiot defining the “bad jews” as part of “international ‘Jewery’” and that he has no problem with Jewish individuals.

It really isn't. Most on the far right are very very very pro-Israel.
The far right is a pretty splintered group, and when you look even a little to the right of principled centrists you quickly get into serious horseshoe political theory territory. The 'Bush republicans' are very pro-Israel, but the 'election was stolen, covid is a conspiracy' post-Trump republicans aren't from that generation and aren't nearly as rational.

#36I know people use “unhinged” a lot but if you read that email it is genuinely off the deep end. It’s like satire of what a racist dude would write.
The proper spelling and grammar threw me. Usually crazy writing is sloppier and weirder.

#39This man is seriously unwell. This wasn't just normal politics - This was deep conspiracy theory nonsense. The fact that he thought others would appreciate the message is further proof that he is in the midst of a serious crisis. He has completely lost touch with reality. Unfortunately, being a wealthy ex-CEO and ex-pat living in another country, away from his former social circles, has likely removed all social supp…

Puerto Rico is another country?

#40It's actually a bit scary that someone this successful not only believes, but openly proselytizes this kind of delusional racist thinking.
