I don't doubt you, but if he is, it LITERALLY demonstrates the problem with the "movement" because here we have, yet again, another "issue" being promoted at an event that has NOTHING to do with it, and by someone who is not a part of any of the affected groups! It is almost parasitic in a way but shows privileged individuals using their privilege to pit minorities against other minorities. I am sick of it.
The fact that even in this thread, there are claims he wasn't assaulted. Pretty much the case when a Jew is a victim. In another post you said the way deflections to anti-Semitism should be studied...I agree. They think we don't see them; we do. I am sure you have also noticed the use of lowercase with certain words: Jews, Jewish, Judaism, and Israel. This is a linguistic technique, made more popular in social media to "downplay or dismiss" those things as irrelevant. It is similar to the shortening of certain identities to show contempt: Zionist becomes Zio (Neo-Nazis and David Duke made this popular) and it now leaking into the left. As far as I am concerned, the writing is one the wall.
