   @djsumdog @melonhusk > Appeal to authority.

   It's a qualification not an authority.
   All the things you mentioned a medical expert will be leagues better than a non-medical expert.

   I already said it's a gauge in epistemological quality and for this specific conversation regarding this topic you already squandered the chance to be taken seriously

   These groups like Amnesty International and Human Rights Watch are basically the only international tools we have against genocide. Their only power is soft power: they live or die solely by respect, buy-in, a shared global belief in their moral authority.

   It is hard for me to imagine that dismantling our meager international capacity to fight genocide won’t open the doors to the targeting of Jewish people. This is such a dangerous game defenders of Israeli right-wingers are playing.

   @aral You know, if it truly was "lick boots for money" I'd find it a lot more understandable and reassuring.

   I don't think it's that. And I don't think he's getting paid.

   I think it's just a natural, knee-jerk alignment with authority.

   It would also be more reassuring if he weren't in such numerous company that way.
