361. Louis Theroux On The Settlers, The Manosphere, & Tribalism

I think allies of Israel's actions have done an amazing job of making their presence felt and making sure that any sort of overstatement, woolly phraseology gets policed, right?

Empire: World History
361. Louis Theroux On The Settlers, The Manosphere, & Tribalism

I feel there's this aspect of that that's healthy, would that it were the case on all sides.

But similarly, we have to interrogate that we're doing the same level of care to represent the Palestinian reality.

Empire: World History
361. Louis Theroux On The Settlers, The Manosphere, & Tribalism

Truthfully, I got critiqued from both in terms of some people who watched it who were sort of sympathetic to the Israeli kind of way of looking at things.

Empire: World History
361. Louis Theroux On The Settlers, The Manosphere, & Tribalism

We're like, oh, well, it's one-sided.

Empire: World History
361. Louis Theroux On The Settlers, The Manosphere, & Tribalism

You haven't really...

shown how these people are just crazy.

Empire: World History
361. Louis Theroux On The Settlers, The Manosphere, & Tribalism

No one takes them seriously, which, by the way, is not the case.

Daniela Weiss enjoys enormous influence.

But similarly, on the other side, some people are like, well, it's 15 or 20 minutes before you meet a Palestinian person, right?

And it's a farmer speaking in Arabic.

And then I quickly move on to talk to an Israeli peace activist.

Empire: World History
361. Louis Theroux On The Settlers, The Manosphere, & Tribalism

And across the board, I'm giving, you could argue, a megaphone

Empire: World History

to the settlers.

Empire: World History
361. Louis Theroux On The Settlers, The Manosphere, & Tribalism

And so I think some people felt, well, you've sort of erased the Palestinian place.

Empire: World History
361. Louis Theroux On The Settlers, The Manosphere, & Tribalism

Yeah, there was a guy who I met in a village who was like, you didn't really discuss how we've already been displaced.

Empire: World History
361. Louis Theroux On The Settlers, The Manosphere, & Tribalism

He told me a story on camera about how he'd ended up in this village in the West Bank near Hebron.

Empire: World History
361. Louis Theroux On The Settlers, The Manosphere, & Tribalism

But prior to that, he'd been in what's now Israel and displaced from that, I believe.

Empire: World History
361. Louis Theroux On The Settlers, The Manosphere, & Tribalism

And so there's a sort of ongoing compounding of refugee status.

And he was understandably upset.
