Telling someone they’re wrong is much less convincing than demonstrating it by laying out the evidence.
It’s pretty clear you just don’t like the guy based on what you’ve heard someone say about him and are now just having an emotional reaction to someone bringing it up. If you actually had a point you would’ve already made it.

Look into any of his statements where he argues Israel has a right to defend itself, that Palestinians are genocidal, that colonialism isn’t a thing on and on and yes I also think iq is nonsense.
You just keep making noise, how about trying to make a coherent argument instead? Steelman a position of his that you disagree with and then tell me what exactly you disagree with about it.

He argues that Israel’s actions in Gaza do not constitute genocide under any reasonable definition of the term. He’s also pointing out that Hamas has openly expressed genocidal intent toward Jews and Israel, both in their founding charter and in public statements by their leaders. He views the genocide accusation against Israel as a moral inversion: it attributes genocidal intent to the side that has the means but refrains from using them for that purpose, while ignoring the side that has the explicit intent but lacks the capability.
