You make good points and I appreciate the positive engagement. But I guess it come down to who watches the watchers? If he is calling out the industry by writing a book, where do his book profits go?
Thinking I might have judged Finkelstein harshly, I dug a little deeper and found this analysis that explains away my confusion. He’s just another racist grifter.
Read down through his quotes and tell me what you think.

Thanks for the link.
He sees the world only in terms of class and does not think of race as that important
I remember Ta-Nehisi Coates’ friend, the son of a radiologist being gunned down in his driveway
He was not the person being sought
I remember Tim Scott telling how he had been stopped 7 times by the police
Finkelstein is in a bubble
Class is not the big factor
Poor health care delivery crosses class
IRS audits cross class
Blacks had to tell the Bernie Bros to back off because they were very willing to throw the Black community under the bus
Finkelstein is just another condescending white guy
