[QUOTE=Crossnerd]Edit: RULES FOR THIS THREAD
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]
or until you get sent into Gaza to blow up houses for no reason
its pretty crazy to see cops beating the **** out of peaceful protesters from sea to shining sea.
someone asked a protester if they were scared and they said, no.
I'm so shocked the people who hate jews also hate the police

Protesters have been given days to leave. Told to leave for days. At some point they need to be forcefully removed. And they resist
Nypd has done a tremendous job under the circumstances
Most normal people would agree
i dont think i'm the one here that isn't getting sarcasm.
all the stories i saw about the FBI citing rising anti-semitism were itself citing the ADL stuff where every legitimate protest is also listed as an incident of antisemitism.
I get that, but your response doesn't make sense as a response to my post when you understand my post as a response to Lucium's now does it?
I'll try adding a little more value about the definition of Jews here:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anti-Semit...
Sartre argued, at least in part, that it's the antisemite who defines the Jew.
You just ignore why the un approved it in the first place
NOBODY WOULD TAKE THE JEWS AFTER WW2. NOT EVEN US. THEY HAD NOWHERE TO GO. THEY DIDN'T CARE IF THEY WERE CHASIDIC OR ATHEIST.

And all the anti-semetic incidents that aren’t protest related??

its wild at Emory and USC and Texas today. probably other places. I cant even keep track. its crazy how many students have been arrested the last few days.
It’s crazy how breaking the law results in arrests…
no I said it was crazy how many students have been arrested.
I bolded the operative words that you werent able to comprehend. try rereading it now.
i dont think anyone in here is saying anti-semitism doesn't exist. it very obviously does. it just isn't college kids putting up tents for their universities to stop investing in Israel while Israel is killing tens of thousands of innocent people on a revenge ethnic cleansing mission.
there were huge arguments in this thread earlier about how calling everything genocide devalues the genocides that actually happened, but yet the same people are saying that the mere presence of a palestinian flag is antisemitism and they don't think that devalues it?

I get that. I think I had a relatives on the MS St. Louis. But what you don't get is that people who think like you are making it more dangerous for Jews now.
College kids were mostly right about protesting on Vietnam .
College kids were dead on right about protesting the invasion of Iraq.
college kids gonna be proven right on protesting this.
Lol, I keep rereading it and can’t figure out why it would be a natural assumption. I think it only make sense if your brain is broken. The police are historically a racist institution with a history rich in collaboration with white supremacists.
Protestors who don't get attacked by the police.
you know the current Columbia president Shafik declined to kick that "Jews will not replace us" tiki torch guy out of school when she was at London School of Economics?
