Yes, and I’ve argued the same elsewhere in this post. I was being facetious to show the absurdity of some of the arguments others have made.

Throwing Greta under the bus.

Maybe change bat to raccoon dog, because I thought they were armed at first.

And simultaneously, they should have expected it and certainly understand why it happened, if it did.

They should have vocally and regularly denounced exotic wet markets and gain of function viral experiments everywhere they went.

I hope that’s how it pans out.

I remember when Arab Americans objected that it wasn’t their responsibility to condemn terrorist attacks every time they happened, since they personally had nothing to do with them and were only connected by race or religion with the perpetrators.

They were right.

I get that being against Israel’s actions in Gaza and the West Bank is not in itself anti-Semitism. That’s clear. Lots of people in these communities like to emphasize the point that being Jewish and supporting Israel’s actions are not the same thing.

Then something like this happens, and the mask comes off. People in this community think this man has some duty to fix the Palestinian crisis before he can expect to walk around in Italy with a kippah on.

Conflating Jewish people with the action in Gaza is anti-Semitic. Don’t bullshit us on other threads how you’re focused only on Zionism if you’re not going to condemn this here. And spare us the “I don’t condone it, but I understand it” crap too. You understand a racist mindset too well.

Because they don’t remember when they conquered the land originally.

Haven’t Palestinians been growing up taught to hate Israelis for decades now?

Yeah, that can’t be right. They really had no other chaperones for a huge group flying internationally? That would be amazingly dumb if true.

I know! Let’s make an anti-Semitic argument in a post which is supposed to be about how “anti-Semitic” is being used in cases where it doesn’t apply in order to deflect any criticism of poor behavior by Jewish people.

That’s punching down, bro. You can only make fun of people with big penises.

What are those? Like corn dogs?

And how is the chocolate factory business?
