Essay addendum; re: on #‪MikeIsraetel 's race science. Many are defending Mike, but #SolomonNelson especially sucks; i.e., he's kept quiet on Mike's #racism despite knowing about it since at least January (links in🧵)

original essay (this addendum attaches to): nicksmovieinsights.com/2025/10/foll...
The thumbnail to my YouTube video, "Essay #8.75: Solomon Nelson Still Sucks; or, the Curious Silence Concerning Mike Israetel's Racism." It's an essay video so the background is celadon; the font is gold and reads: "White Trans Whore Watches a Bunch of Bigoted Gym Nerds Sell Out, mid-Kayfabe / Essay #8.75: Solomon Nelson Still Sucks; or, the Curious Silence Concerning Mike Israetel's Racism / Persephone watches Solomon Nelson still refuse to mention Mike Israetel's race science; i.e., while Dom Mazzetti and Mike jerk each other off, and others try to apologize for Solomon's silence and fascist apologia. They all kind of suck." Has my green-and-purple Gothic Communism logo underneath. On the right side, a collage contains: thumbnail from Mike Israetel video celebrating Bro Science (top), Solomon Nelson's latest video on Mike that fails to mention his racism once (middle), the thumbnail to Anabolic Stick's video on Mike Israetel's aforementioned race science (bottom). Solomon commenting on my original January 2025 critique calling him out for being a white moderate (thus a Nazi): "For sure there is. I can’t say I agreed with everything you argued, but I found your perspective valuable all the same. Could you point me to any resources you think I should clue myself in on?" Me: "​ @Solomon_Nelson Sure! Here's a short list of resources and compendiums to larger organized lists and academic-to-non-academic (holistic) synthesis I think you'll find helpful (I'll expand on the list if I think of anything else): Mike Israetel's saying the quiet part out loud (race science coming from a token Jewish man/Russian expat-turned-American citizen embracing neoliberalism really fucking hard): "Is Intelligence Really Different Among the Races?" https://youtu.be/WBZGgrgMwvU Bluesky user Angry T------- Against Cops And Kings on why doctors are cops: https://bsky.app/profile/atackuk.bsky.social/post/3kjya2vok7t2d; re: A.T.A.C.K.'s ("Angry Tr*nnies* Against Cops and Kings") series: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/121uPwyUX9QqHFBft5CrSNalgrSbGjpyR —ADAB ("All Doctors Are BAD"/cops, from A.T.A.C.K.

For context, in case anyone's wondering what he means by "her pathetic critique of a fitness YouTuber I follow"; re: Solomon Nelson being historically unable to mention Mike Israetel's blatant race science:

A section of my first essay on Solomon Nelson, "White Moderates Don't Challenge Fascism" (June 10th, 2025). A snippet from my second essay on Solomon Nelson, "Follow-Up: White Moderates Still Don't Challenge Fascism" (October 12th, 2025). A communication between Solomon and I, where he refuses to investigate Dr. Mike Israetel for his blatant race science. CJ McIntosh, the "former Space X, US Navy Vet" (red flag, there) who's ANTI-RACIST but sucks up to a white moderate like Solomon Nelson; re: an investigator of Mike Israetel who refuses to investigate Mike for his race science. Yep, that tracks.
