As for the Jewish-American question, what’s funny is that I grew up in India, and the Jewish-American comparison is better for second-generation Asians. I’m sure there’s something about globalization that has globalized our neuroses, so that I, growing up in India, somehow turned out very similar to you.

I don’t know what you can do if it’s reported that there’s been a small attack in the second- or third-largest city in country X that you have no connection to. I don’t know what you’re supposed to feel or how you’re supposed to get into that.

I don’t think sexual repression leads to violence, but I can see the situation where you’re trying very hard to be very religious and to be good but pornography exerts a strong force on you, and one way to get further away from it would be to immerse yourself in a strong religious system.

I guess my point in general is that, if you look closely, who is in politics to self-identify – these are the people who flip easily, from right to left, pro-Muslim to anti-Muslim, etc. – versus who, whether on the right or left, is moved by genuine interest and empathy.
