The purpose is to measure the effect of a single variable, so you make sure to correct for all other variables. For example, to measure the effect of height you might compare white men only against white men, black women only against black women, etc.
In a study measuring the gender pay gap, they would be correcting for variables other than gender.
Conflating Jews in Israel with Zionists.
Unfortunately, he does it in this very post.
When people talk about “jews” or “israelis” generally as perpetuating the murder of children, they are engaging in the blood libel trope.
Those two statements (with “jews” vs with “israelis”) are in no way the same. The first is antisemitism, the second is objective fact and the policy of the Israeli state. To conflate the two is antisemitic, and also plays into Israeli propaganda that they are the representatives of Jews and Judaism.
This is just conflating Israeli and Jew and my problem with it is not tone-policing, but rather that it itself falls into an antisemitic conflation of the two, and importantly portrays the IDF as outside of Likud and the US. They are going at great lengths to distance Israelis and even the literal members of the Israeli death squads from the violence they represent and commit. That is actually offensive and gross.
GOOD post. OP makes some good points, but they could have been made without settler apologia, IDF apologia, and (ironically, and clearly unintentionally) antisemitism. Saying that it’s blood libel to say “Israelis are murdering Palestinians” is absolutely ridiculous, and as you said implies that “Jews” = “Israelis” and criticisms of Israel are antisemitic.
As a note, even if you were to say “Jews”, it wouldn’t be blood libel. Absolutely antisemitic, but not blood libel. Blood libel is specifically about accusing Jews of using the blood of children in rituals. You can expand that definition reasonably to include a lot of accusations about using the blood of children, but it’s clearly not applicable here. It’s a specific antisemitic trope with a specific meaning and history, and it’s probably counterproductive to stick the label on every antisemitic statement involving accusations of violence.

China: sends an even angrier letter
I MUST SPEAK TO THE MANAGER OF ISRAEL
Elie Hobeika, the Lebanese Forces leader accused of ordering the civilians to be killed, was later assassinated by an Israeli car bomb before he could testify as to who was responsible for what.
This feels like a Three Body Problem bit.
Hello, Volcel Police?!
Can you do me, please? I want to see what cancellable things GPT invents and attributes to me.
I’m pretty sure any word you would call a “slur” would be not OK by definition. Nothing in this situation could be worse than the truth: crypto nerd. They seemed OK in other threads too, then they turn out to have crypto brainworms. That shit is truly an infection of the mind. Xi please export revolution to combat crypto globally.
I made it 30 seconds and I’m dead now. You’ve killed me.
“This chair is made from fire r****dant fabric.”
In this case it refers to the ability to delay the spread of fire. It’s just a common root with the slur that means delayed.

Yes, that’s what it means - if all other factors they list are equal, meaning if the only difference is height.
