Can /pol/ rationalize why they think Sam Harris is "bad" without just referring to his ethnic background?

I just had this clip pop up in my recommendations and agreed with pretty much everything he said here:

He realized that without Christians, both he and his subversive Jewish DNA will be violently thrown out of America for being the enemy of all humankind.

He is what the Bible warns about never letting them get any power, and says to move them into barns and set fire to their homes.

You didn't do that, and so now you get to realize why this directive isn't a trifle, it's to protect you from them.

He is literally telling white people to go back to church and believe in Jesus Christ as Messiah and the Trinity.

As an Atheist
( i hate what the movement turned into )

Religion is a vehicle that carries culture. It turns out that if we destroy (de-constructing and re-constructing) this vehicle it lets loose a lot of horrible stuff that we might just call evil.

for better and worse (i'm from finland) christianity was the vessel that carried forward most of our traditions into the modern times. look, even "christmas" isn't even christmas here. it's just joulu. we don't give a shit about jebus, it's about giving back to the community during the darkest and coldest of all times, because we don't want to find out that the neighbor just died because of exposure.

also i barely ever post here and the captcha is why this fucking site dies

I used to be a big fan of Sam Harris, read most of his books, did the meditation app etc, but during COVID he did a podcast where he was advocating for the vaccine and essentially calling anyone who didnt take it a shameful retard, and it was at that point that I dropped him.

I shudder to imagine how he rationalizes what Israel is doing but I know that Sam Harris is not an atheist - he is a jew.

religion is also community (ergo what you say)
community causes evil.
fuckers in the primarily secularist atheist community went forward with the idea that "de-constructing" christianity will bring forward a better society. it did not do that.

you cannot destroy your roots and maintain social cohesion. you can look at communist societies and make the comparisons. you need religion, even if you are an atheist, because the society at large needs stupid stuff to cling onto. they don't need to make sense. christmas, for example, is a fucking stupid holiday for no other culture than northerners.

WHY? because its about giving away during the coldest and darkest times, so that when spring comes your neighbor won't be DEAD.

Thats not whats happening. Israel is murdering children en masse and Sam “Moral Accountability” Harris is over here implying that the events of October 7th somehow warrant turning tens of thousands of children into hamburger and tens of thousands more into amputees, and Sam’s more worried about how Israel will recover from its heinous acts on the global stage, which of course they will because theyre doing then intentionally, thumbing their nose to the world in the process. Absolutely sick.

What bothers me is how much I used to like Sam Harris, and I still do feel like I gained something of value in my life from his meditation stuff, but man was I idealistic regarding how actually “fair and unbiased” he really was.

The holocaust denial narrative is dependent on a literal country-sized settlement of at least 3 million deported Jews being set up in Eastern Europe somewhere and then vanishing into thin air overnight, leaving no trace whatsoever. This alone is so ridiculously damning that multiple high-profile Holocaust deniers have given up denying it when forced to grapple with that lack of evidence.

He is a utilitarian and he refuses to grapple with the fact most people are retarded and half the smart ones are incurably not rationality driven and he is anti philosophy which just means ceding territory to critical theoruly and he punches right.

Haackian classical pragmatism is obviously correct and morality is obviously a mix of deontological and virtue ethics with periodic reassessments based on revealed consequences over time.

Utilitarianism is a denial of basic biology.

i wish youd posted this thread while i was at my computer. (im currently phone-posting.) i keep a document that reminds me why i dont like certain people, and theres a sam harris entry. it wouldn't really justify it to just try to summarize the points off the top of my head. ill give you a few things though:
he went full retard on trump. his bias is shocking for someone of his intellect. and there really is no other context that exonerates that dead children laptop quote. what do you think he meant by it? its quite clear--he thinks even if biden were a serial murderer of children, sam would still prefer biden to trump. thats insane. he views trump as this staggering evil, but ive listened to tens of hours of his views on trump and he has never given a tangible example thats especially compelling, let alone so compelling that it would place trump below the level of a serial child murderer. so any topic that relates to trump (ICE enforcement, tariffs, you name it) sam's brain goes into biased idiot mode and he says obviously wrong things. he does this to a lesser degree with jew and israel topics. he speaks reasonably about the state of racism (blacks arent oppressed victims), but cant for antisemitism. something like 40% of his guests are jews, and he loves to dwell on their catastrophizing views on antisemitism--in a country where jews are the wealthiest ethnic group and overrepresented 10x in all positions of power and influence.

I mean he's so out of fashion. most people mock his philosophical takes about meta ethics, where he pretty much ignored 2000 years of knowledge and decided to state a well known problem wasn't really a problem, making a fool out of himself.

then there's the neuroscience LARP, some people exposed him as fake

then there's the annoying centrism, he's too liberal for conservatives, he's too rational and a chud for leftists (he dared to criticize islam, for example, not realizing the atheism larp is just an excuse for jews to attack christianity)

theres a really funny interview about race with him and some black comedian tho

couple more points: notice how many of his guests write for the atlantic. another huge percentage write for the new york times. hes very siloed with his perspective and he should figure out that this keeps him from seeing the truth on countless issues, but he refuses to interact with people he doesnt like or who may bring a compelling case for a view he doesnt want to be valid. if he does have someone on whos right-leaning or muslim, its always some ultra-liberal adulterated version--like maajid nawaz or douglas murray. it smacks of having an agenda besides simply the truth to deny his platform to people who might sway his audience to some icky truth like fewer than a million jews died in the holocaust or a significant percentage of israelis exult in the deaths of palestinians. so he makes sure his non-jewish guests are shabbos goyim.
and one thing that really bothered me was at one of his live speaking events like ten years ago, a woman asked a question during the q&a portion and he gave a kind of shockingly flippant and disrespectful response, essentially telling her that he didnt want to answer the question. and so i went back to the VOD of the livestream the next day because i wanted to show this instance to my friend, and it had been edited out of the video. my view of him being an admirably ethical person changed after that.
