General Discussion

I'm being very specific in what I'm condemning. The idea that Jews have collective responsibility is a trope that's gotten some play on DU. It pops up again and again. And it's enough already.

Trying to distract away from that is running interference. Pretending people aren't deploying these tropes is running interference. Ignoring it and building strawmen in response to racism is running interference.

There's that saying, if ten people are at dinner and one of them's a Nazi, what do you have? The reply goes, "Ten Nazis."

Well, this AIPAC obsessed movement is chock full of bad actors who only want to talk about Jews, Jewish money, why Jews are responsible for the hatred they experience, and on and on. Sometimes subtle. Sometimes much less.

Either call them out already - or at the very least stop pretending or making excuses about it - or I'm just going to assume a lot of people are very comfortable with the dinner party they're attending.
