Censorship, Criticism, and Cancel Culture
This chapter explores the challenges faced by author Nathan Thrall due to the perceived threat of his book, along with concerns about censorship and cancel culture surrounding critiques of the Israeli government. The speakers discuss the blurred lines between criticism of Israel, criticism of Zionism, and anti-Semitism, and highlight the use of the IHRA definition of anti-Semitism to suppress legitimate inquiries about Israel. They also discuss the silencing of individuals expressing criticism, targeting of academia, and media regurgitation of misleading claims.
