- Comment on Sen. Schumer: 'My Job is to Keep the Left Pro-Israel' 5 days ago:
Israel’s 1948 Declaration of Independence states the nation was founded on the “national and historic right of the Jewish people”
Israel’s 2018 Basic Law constitutionally enshrined the state as the "nation-state of the Jewish people. " granting exclusive national self-determination to Jews, prioritize Jewish settlement as a “national value”, designate Hebrew as the sole official language (with Arabic demoted to “special status”), affirm Jerusalem as the capital, and guarantee Jewish immigration rights
This may be why people conflate the two.

- Comment on Why do most Americans use an iPhone? 5 weeks ago:
They used to innovate, no doubt. But their products provide absolutely terrible value now. Great resale, sure. But you’re overpaying 20-30% for the hardware you’re getting which is not the case on the Android side. The only thing iPhone universally does better is 1) video and 2) ecosystem (if all your products are Apple). The rest is tomaeto vs tomahto situation.
