[QUOTE=Crossnerd]Edit: RULES FOR THIS THREAD

2+2 Rules

Posting guidelines for Politics and Soci...


These are our baselines. We're not reinventing the wheel here. If you aren't sure if something is acceptable to post, its better to ask first. If you think someone is posting something that violates the above guidelines, please report it or PM me rather than responding in kind.

To reiterate some of the points:

1. No personal attacks. This is a broad instruction, but, in general, we want to focus on attacking an argument rather than the poster making it. It is fine to say a post is antisemitic; it is not okay to call someone an antisemite over and over. If you believe someone is making antisemitic posts, report them or PM me. The same goes for calling people "baby killers" and "genocide lovers". You are allowed to argue that an action supports genocide or that the consequences of certain policies results in the death of children, but we are no longer going to be speaking to one another's intentions. It is not productive to the conversation and doesn't further any debate.

2. Racist posts and other bigoted statements that target a particular group or individuals of such groups with derogatory comments are not allowed. This should not need further explanation.

3. Graphic Images need to be in spoilers with a trigger warning.

4. Wishing Harm on other posters will result in an immediate timeout.

5. Genocidal statements such as "Kill 'em all" etc, are no longer permissible in the thread.

If anyone has any questions about the above, please PM me. I don't want a discussion about the rules to derail the content of this thread. If anything needs clarifying, I will do that in this thread.

Please be aware this thread is strictly moderated[/quote]

I just haven't seen any evidence of classic antisemitism in the campus ceasefire movement. What I see is some Jews feeling unsafe because they are conflating opposition to Zionism with antisemitism. That's on them.

Would you feel safe around these nuts if you were a Jew?

The idea of "right of return" is nonsense. It can't and shouldn't happen. Things went bad a long time ago just like it has for many people throughout the world. It's a survival of the fittest world. Some times you have to admit defeat and move on.

Pretty much the most distinguishing feature of you "survival of the fittest" people is cowardice. Remember when you called that offramp in San Diego a "no-go zone" and then I took my child there and discovered maybe the best tacos I've ever had?

I actually dont see whats wrong with that sign

Then you should have no problem with Israel wrecking Gaza. They are just defending themselves "By any means necessary".

Not everyone is as easily frightened as you are.


by Victor P

I agree. and I dont think there is anything really wrong with those signs. could be close to borderline in some context. but not this one.

This has nothing to do with the content of the signs.

He said those signs were being held. You, quick to always assign blame to the other side, instantly said those signs were being held by Zionists. Which is clearly false.

You actually gonna admit you were wrong?

I'd recommend not taking your child to a "no go zone". I'm glad it worked out for you though.

You think any investment bank or consulting firm is watching these Columbia protests and thinking to themselves, "Man, those are people I really want to hire. Give me some of that." **** the hell no.

And now every time they are recruiting someone from Yale or Columbia they are going to be asking themselves in the back of their mind, "Is this person on video camera chanting "Death to the Jews" or holding a sign saying, "By any means neces

I strongly disagree. I don't think this stuff will hurt recruiting at Yale or Columbia one iota. The firms you are talking about mainly care about making money. If you are a Yale math or econ major, and you want to devote your life to making money, no one will care that you might have attended protests.

It's not a no-go zone.

I certainly wouldn't take my child near a Pro Hamas rally to get tacos.

Yeah let's make fun of Jews who are scared

Disgusting but i shouldn't be surprised

Unless the business owner is Jewish.


Bill says it's on them
Micro says some people don't scare easy

I guess zionists are just wusses

Be proud micro


Malcolm Nance yo


Officer on deck!

Wonder how vic imagines the US military, post-transformation, in accordance with the manifesto, and as laid out by zee party.

What's not a "No go zone"?

****er.

That's all I'm allowed to say now.


by mongidig P

San Diego is an example. All of it.


Boring. In detail, how you think radical Islam can be assimilated into western culture.

I'm as outraged over the Russian theater massacre, the shootings at concerts in Europe, the assassination attempts on prominent infidels

The Charlie hedbo? The one in India, was it?

They are the scum of the earth.

A pro hamas rally in the us mostly consists of a bunch of broke anti american lefties - not actual hamas infantry.

Your not in any real threat to get tacos and chill with those folk


95b aid passes senate.

Sanders tried to ammend to cut Israel aid that pos
Mike lee tried to ammend to cut Ukraine aid that moron

Still passed 82-18 hallelulujah

Probably not but we are still dealing with unstable individuals who can snap at any time.

****er.

If there another way i should take it besides you think zionists who are scared are babies? I know vic and Bill think that. I'm sad you do too

I don't think that will matter. Maybe I'm wrong, but I suspect that Pershing Square will be happy to hire top tier MIT grads in 2025, protests notwithstanding.


I'm sad that you think it's disgusting for Bernie to not want to send more bombs to be used on Gaza (and he did just try to cut offensive weapons and not missile defense), but it is what it is. We don't get to be happy all the time.

Don't be sad. Israel needs to finish the job. This will help. It's a good thing.
