America has the worst media in the world. And Vox is the worst media of any outlet except for the New York Times.
But Zack Beauchamp is the one leading figure in lefty digital media that not even the New York Times, the Washington Post, or CNN wanted.
Why? Well there was the time he claimed that there was some sort of giant bridge between the West Bank and Gaza. That led to this unforgettable correction in Beauchamp’s Vox explainer, “11 crucial facts to understand the Israel-Gaza crisis”
“An earlier version of this post suggested there was a bridge connecting Gaza and the West Bank. Various plans to do this have been floated, but the bridge was never actually built.”
There were also various plans floated to build a canal separating America from Mexico, to overthrow the United States, and to blow up the moon.
“An earlier version of this post suggested the moon had been blown up. Various plans to do this have been floated, but the moon was never actually blown up.”
Now Zack turned his laser acumen to the bafflingly inexplicable crisis of antisemitism.
These attacks appear to be linked to the recent flare-up in fighting between Israel and the Palestinian militant group Hamas. In some cases, the perpetrators waved Palestinian flags or shouted pro-Palestinian slogans…
What’s less clear is why these incidents are happening.
If you think this is beyond stupid, Zack is just getting started.
It’s also possible that the anti-Semitic attacks are part of the generalized surge in American anti-Semitism since 2016, which most experts link to the rise of Donald Trump and the alt-right movement.
As a writer who believes in the power of reason, I hate to say this, but the only rational response to Zack Beauchamp writing about Israel (or any Vox explainer) is a headdesk.gif spammed non-stop.
It’s like listening to AOC talk about economics or a dog bark at a tree.
Zack Beauchamp then cites Jewish Currents’ insistence that the surge in antisemitism was made up by the ADL. He doesn’t bother to mention to his audience that JC is a rabidly anti-Israel and anti-Jewish site that originated in the Communist Party.
In LA, the attackers — who drove to a specifically Jewish neighborhood to find Jews to hurt — were flying Palestinian flags. In Times Square, the violence grew out of a pro-Palestinian protest. In Florida, the attackers yelled, “‘Free Palestine, fuck you Jew, die Jew.”
This isn’t normal. Something new appears to be happening, but it’s not yet clear what it is.
It’s a mystery. We’re gonna need to dig into it some more to figure out what’s going on here.
But the fact that some of these incidents seem directly tied to pro-Palestinian events and sentiment, with little or no connection to the far-right factions that traditionally commit the most serious anti-Semitic violence in the United States, presents troubling data points. It’s possible, if not likely, that the European pattern of violence in Israel causing anti-Semitic violence at home could become a reality in America.
It’s a mystery wrapped in an enigma wrapped in a media cover-up.
Westman says
“…the far-right factions that traditionally commit the most serious anti-Semitic violence in the United States…”
Zack has Mental Dyslexia? Those conservative US religious folks, who donate money for Jewish migration to Israel are, “anti-Semitic”?
gregbeetham says
Palestinians are in a self inflicted Islamic prison, Israel didn’t put them there they put themselves there but hey! let’s blame Israel because they are Jewish…right? so it has to be their fault somehow.
All the Muslim retards keep proclaiming ‘free Palestine’ well they can be free, just get rid of the demented Satanic anti Semitic cult and they’ll be free.

I am familiar with Zack Beauchamp, he is an UNTERMENSCH who lies about the science of Lookism-Blackpill. My bet is he is being PAID to say lies,he has no integrity.
As I said before 70% of men and women 18-34 (about 66 MILLION in total are 18-34) in the US are Leftists like Beauchamp,and most of the men there,besides being Bluepillers, are incels (but who won’t admit it to themselves )
A very,very,very,very,very small number of men 18-34 in the US have learned the scientific evidence regarding Lookism , and Beauchamp has written lies saying the group is:
white supremacist ( when MOST are in fact Non-White), extremist, misogynist, haters, dangerous.
EXAMPLE OF LOOKISM
Using the Method to Learn How to Think called COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS ( which Beauchamp never uses),
researchers know:
1.If you have 2 candidates for a job with the SAME SKILLS
2.And one is a Beautiful Femme Fatale and the OTHER is a fat and plain woman/man
3.It is More,more Probable the Better Looking Candidate will be HIRED ( Lookism).
4.It is called the HALO EFFECT.
LEFTIST WHO AGREES
She is FRANCESCA MINERVA, Italian scientist,who is also in favor of
AFTER-BIRTH ABORTION ( aka Infanticide): parents should be given the option of letting a baby die ( 1 month to decide ),
for any reason ( baby is DEFORMED) or if they think it will be an ECONOMIC BURDEN.
It is in:
“”After-birth abortion: why should the baby live?” in the Journal of Medical Ethics (2013 )
MINERVA ALSO FOR CRYONICS ( getting frozen to later be reanimated)
She wrote the book:
“The Ethics of Cryonics: Is it Immoral to be Immortal?”(2019)
MINERVA IN FAVOR OF FREEDOM OF SPEECH
She and others created the:
“The Journal of Controversial Ideas “(2018)
Which other Leftists have attacked and attacked and attacked. In it there is PEER-REVIEW of articles (by qualified writers) but to NOT get FIRED
for their opinions, the authors remain ANONYMOUS. To protect them from CANCEL CULTURE

PLUS
Francesca Minerva,being a Leftist,is a Trump-hater and in Favor of Letting Muslims Flood Europe.
A DIFFERENT SORT OF LEFTISTS ( 5 STAR MOVEMENT, Italy)
It is a Political Party created in 2009 and which has Become Popular.
They are Leftists,they are Socialists, since they are for:
UNIVERSAL INCOME: all automatically will be given a salary even if you have Never Worked and Never Wanted to Work in your Entire Life.
Economically, the ONLY way to do it, without Civilization Collapsing, is if people agreed to Give Up their Land,Apartment,House to the State.
THE LEFTIST PRESS ABOUT THE 5 STAR MOVEMENT
Vox,Vice, CNN,BBC, Washington Post, NY Times,etc, call it RIGHT,far-right. Why?
Because they are AGAINST GLOBALIZATION and also against ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION into Italy ( Muslims from the Maghreb and sub-Sahara and the Middle East).
They know it is destroying the quality of life.

Yes, people tend to be somewhat biased in favor of better looking people. But this is hardly absolute–is Biden the best-looking man in America? I rather doubt most would think so.
And taking this general bias–not necessarily something to be praised, in any case; it is generally pretty shallow–and extrapolating from it that most people have to remain celebate for life does not make sense–it is also not borne out statistically.
In fact, over half of Americans are married, and only about 20% of Americans never marry (and some of them have long-term relationships).

Vox ‘Journalist’ Zack Beauchamp knowingly refuses to connect the dots regarding antisemitic attacks – and muslims waving PLO flags…
Keith O says
Beauchamp only “works” as a journalist because he can’t or won’t get a real job and do a real days work.
I wouldn’t mind betting that if a forensic accountant looked at his money sources it would link back to some VERY nasty, evil people/organisations.

He is either lying or an utter moron. Thanks for this expose by Daniel Greenfield.
Hoi Polloi says
It appears VOX hasn’t raised its standards with respect to reporter quality. I cannot ever take VOX seriously given its association with Matt Yglesias. My first round of encounters with MY involved his cranking out numerous posts per day full of illogic, wrong information, sentence fragments, hilariously misused words, streams of graphs without labels or mislabeled which were then misused to support statements designed to build interest in his next book, and abrupt ends that seemed to have resulted from his hitting send halfway through. Harvard is turning out some interesting ones. It seems MY and this guy both labor under the delusion that the public is of lower status and ability and cannot muster the intellectual heft to lift their heads above this river of mud.
Spiro says
I must admit I’m not at all fimillar with vox or this clown Zack
But for Zacks sake I hope he’s not as stupid as he comes off to being
Does anyone listen or read this guy’s stuff
If do this countries. In real trouble ?
