And he’s really showing the unidirectionality of his empathy as well as his persecution complex. E.g., here’s Woit telling Aaronson to get therapy:

I tried to tell you earlier this year that you should be seeking professional help about this, and things have now gotten much worse.

And in another comment:

Seriously: seek professional help for your paranoid delusions/psychological defense mechanisms for justifying murdering Palestinian children on a large scale as part of a genocide/ethnic cleansing campaign.

And another commenter says,

I hope Scott gets help, he is clearly insane.

OK, call it casually ableist, but it’s not wishing death upon the man, or harm to his loved ones. But here’s Aaronson commenting further down the thread:

In case it wasn’t obvious, I’m not addressing any of my comments here to Peter, or to any of the cowards of his comment section. They’re unworthy of civilized conversation, as they don’t fulfill the basic prerequisites for it, like caring whether their interlocutors and their loved ones live or die.

Jeshua H. ben Joseph, dude. Get help.
