His coding seems suspect. I don't know all the cases well, but saying Israeli settlers are" state-led" is kind of simplistic. There are settlements that are illegal even under Israeli law. Settlers have dragged governments into things repeatedly. In the cases when settlers were evacuated, many resisted and it was a big struggle.
Not to say they haven't also been subsidized by the government, obviously, but the idea that the government is the cause and the settlers are the effect is too simple. (This has nothing to do with whether you think Israeli policy is good or bad. It's just a question about the process.) Could it be I know the only case he has somewhat mischaracterized? I guess that's allowed in a "big think" study when most reviewers don't know details.

I know nothing about this subfield, but he seems to be making all the right kinds of people mad(and his tweet thread makes total sense). Slay, king!
Yeah you get automatic hate whenever you criticize Chyna but beyond that I don’t get it.
There's the purple-haired Pomo flag crowd that hates political scientists for their facts and logic artistry apparently

No conceptual soup for you!
Lachlan, go to bed.No, actually he's doing the Lord's work schooling muddleheads on twitter. They're mad that somebody dared to question their grand theory that indicts every one of their favorite villains, simultaneously, for every one of their favorite problems, simultaneously. Oh no!
