    Hilariously, the guy saying "while it's true many of them are subversives, we have to let Jews into the country in order to make our super-weapons" is the moderate in the conversation.https://twitter.com/jbenton/status/1478104151213154308 …

    It's approaching Peak Substack to say the good part of the U.S. banning Jews fleeing the Nazis would've been stopping the bad Jews, like ALBERT EINSTEIN, but unfortunately you couldn't do it without also stopping the good Jews, the ones who can make bombs https://glennloury.substack.com/p/amy-wax-redux  pic.twitter.com/bkzlAA0Vy4

        I am gonna guess that whoever he is responding to probably wishes Heisenberg hadn't made that "calculation error"

        Far as I remember no one made any error. Heisenberg made a very reasonable calculation about how long it would take to produce an atomic bomb, and The Nazis nixed the project because it would have been too long.

        Also relevant is that the US *did* turn away a lot of Jews fleeing extermination at the hands of the Nazis, they're having this conversation about some of the ones the US didn't turn away, or whose parents the US didn't turn away, or who came here after WWII.

        I made it one hour into that Loury/Wax podcast and then I couldn’t take any more. I think it was right after a rant about George Floyd.
