How both sides weaponize racism - Anti-semitism as an example.

El OchoCinco said:
Interesting article on selective outrage on anti-semitism from BOTH sides. Anyone who claims it is only ONE side did not read the article and will be obvious and we can call them "Stoopid"

Nonetheless interesting read.

Nah, don't buy it. I haven't seen anything but condemnation from the left for anti-semitic attacks. I have seen nonsense from the right blaming the left of being anti-semitic for condemning Israel on their treatment of Palestinians, including boycotts organized by the left.
 
Left has been a little selective in its outrage at times, especially with Ilhan's comments. Democratic leaders came out initially to condemn her statement but then Bernie, AOC and Talib cried they were picking on the poor muslim woman and should instead focus on GOP antisemitism.

We can have opinions on which side has tilted the scales in their favor for most often being antisemitic, but the important point of the article is that both sides only care when they can weaponize it against their opponents.
 
This is one of the better things I've heard in years. The only "both sides" argument I get behind is too many people will pick a party in 2020 because they have nowhere else to go.

The Frog asked the Scorpion as he slowly sank into the water to drown, “why did you sting me?”

The Scorpion replied, “because I’m a Scorpion, it’s my nature.”
