Evan Bernstein Resigns from SGU

I've seen Evan post more than a few times on FB, and his complaints at that time were about CTs taxes. This was years ago and I doubt anyone was complaining about those posts. I've also seen Bob post a few things on the edge of political/skeptical but they were mostly complaints about science funding.

This was something else altogether.

No, what Israel is doing to Gaza meets 4 out of the 5 specific acts listed in the definition of genocide, in Article II of the 1948 Convention on the Prevention and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide. Israeli leaders, including PM Benjamin Netanyahu, have repeatedly stated their intention to remove Palestinians from Gaza.

The fact that you refuse to recognize these blatant war crimes, shows that you are not only 'biased,' but also a genocide apologist.

Yeah, I recall him complaining on Facebook about administrative costs of the CT state bureaucracy, and saying that government pensions should be eliminated because they cost the taxpayers too much money.

Besides that, most of his Facebook content used to be about skeptical issues. But lately, I haven't noticed him posting on Facebook at all.

My guess is, for the past couple years he's moved off Facebook and joined the CHUDs on X.

I think I heard him once on Cara's podcast saying that he was a Republican and they were talking about how it is nonetheless great that they can agree to disagree on politics.

I think she also had Dave Rubin on and said much the same. I don't think that friendship aged well, and Rubin was always an idiot anyway.

Dave Rubin was one of those shills who took money from the Russians to spread pro-Putin propaganda.

What are the odds that Evan will now go crying "CANCELED" and jump onto the right-wing grift wagon, with dark funding from RT and the Israeli Foreign Affairs Ministry?

Or maybe get a job with The Daily Wire?

Rubin was one of those "I left the left" and gave a handful of weak excuses but the simple fact is the grift was more profitable on the right.

The exposure of his being funded by Russia, his disastrous appearance on Jubilee's "Surrounded", and the general decline of viewership of right-wing grifters have left him flailing for an audience of late.

I doubt Evan can carve out a new space at the moment, whatever the funding.
 
Yeah, but the Right loves defectors. And coming from a credentialed, well-respected science and skepticism group would be the icing on the cake.

Jordan Peterson, Robert Malone, the Weinstein brothers, and lately Sabine Hossenfelder have all had lucrative careers since getting in on the right-wing grift, slagging on science, attacking the medical establishment and academia.

The fact that he voluntarily resigned from the show should prevent that narrative from gaining traction.

I dunno... he could always spin it to imply that Steven Novella gave him the option of saving face by resigning.

The far Right prefers a good persecution narrative over actual facts anyway.

Evan literally called the Democrats "nazis." He's gone off the deep end.

Tone down the personal attacks and there's an existing thread for general Israel - Palestine issues.

Here

We're probably going to clean up this thread later

Did you actually read the things he wrote on twitter?

He literally said he wanted the Palestinian people wiped out, and "driven back into their caves."

Evan Bernstein is a fascist.

Just accept there is nothing wrong with murder and ethnic cleansing and it all becomes easier. Just have to reconcile what with all the BS crap about the holocaust being some big deal when it was just another genocide and really was nothing special.

Should the SGU take a sideline when one of its members engages in hate speech?

Evan's tweets went beyond political opinion. He was literally advocating and supporting genocide.

Genocide is a political opinion. So he supports genocide there is nothing wrong with that, just like someone who wanted to exterminate the jews would be welcome as well clearly.

I'm sure that there are many different ideologies and degrees of zealotry within Zionism, but I think we all know what it means in a general sense.
You can take it mean basically "Pro-Israel" (and pro-Israeli policies and collective actions) for this purpose.

And the ethnic cleansing of Palestians to make more room for jews. Which is something all great nations did so I don't see what the problem is.
