Where in the US are people flyimg Nazi German flags??


I feel like you may need to learn to use google. Mostly now I’ve been hearing the antisemitism deniers say that the nazi flag isn’t antisemitic since the nazis didn’t only kill Jews.

I haven’t heard anyone trying to refute it’s happening. Congrats on a whole new level of being willfully ignorant.

While you can google and see lots of incidents, flying them outside a community theater performance of Anne Franks Diary in Michigan was particularly poignant.


No question that the Nazi German flag is abhorrent and hateful. I know the origin of the swastika is Indian, but unless you're using it in a specific cultural context, it's obviously meant to signify hate.

Antisemitism exists, for sure. But not every act or crime against a Jewish person is antisemitism. Jews, like all people, are also capable of being shitty. Anti-semitism is also putting Jews on a pedestal as being a chronic victim, and incapble of being responsible for hate, too.


I am noticing the theme emerge. You’re unable to even follow your own word salad, much less backup or defend your strange rambling.

May god, Allah, hashem, the Flying Spaghetti Monster bring you peace.

See here’s the thing. Your personal experience doesn’t apply to the entire country.


Oh really? What does an anti-Catholic flag even look like?


How many times have you seen an anti Jew flag in dc? Maybe in your imagination only.


I mean someone literally spray painted swastikas on a synagogue near me.


Why this is different from antiabortion graffiti that happens regularly to Catholic Churches ?


Catholic Churches are not pro Life they are pro death. Definitely not pro kids safety.


To my point antisemitism bad anti Catholicism good.

Just to showcase the severity of anti Catholicism problem read the newspaper now and see the case of two children killed while worshiping.

Of course for most people that’s a regular crime, but when some other religion is involved is an attach to that religion that have been endured for hundreds of years.

I mean A) I have never experienced that but the JCC my kid goes to aftercare at has been vandalized. B) a swastika is a death threat. 6 million people haven't been murdered for being anti abortion.

Hello friend. This is a pedestal we'd gladly like to step down from.

This doesn't make any sense. The Catholic church is anti-abortion.

We all know they meant “abortion”, except you.

The shooting, while terrible, doesn't prove anything. What is it a "trend" of?

Also, the whole point of this thread is "why do Jews get so much attention not Catholics" when Catholics have been terrible to Jews throughout human history..

It proves that killing Catholics is a regular crime, but killing people from other religions is a different and special category that needs to be differentiated. It is not.

Antisemitism is not about mocking Jewish beliefs. Antisemites also despise Jewish non-believers.


Can you explain what this is? If it's not about religion, why do you think anti-Semites hate them? It's also not about ethnicity, because there are Jews of every race and ethnicity. I genuinely don't understand.


Jewish people have been disproportionately successful in many industries, but most notably banking. A lot of the success of multinational, family-run Jewish banks was in funding wars (often both sides) that were hotly contested by two different countries within Christendom. Imagine you are a true believer on either side in the Napoleonic Wars, you believe God is on your side, and that you are fighting for God, King, and Country. You are willing to die.

And then you find out that Jewish bankers are funding both sides of the war, and ambivalently making a fortune, and they don't care about the causes at all.

The reaction to realizing that you've been suckered is to lash out at someone who profited by it. Many such cases.


This is an antisemitic blood libel. Straight up.


Certainly not. Truth is an absolute defense against libel. Identify a sentence in that previous post that is not true.

Yes, that appeared zero times in dc.

So your point is that it’s ok to kill Catholics because they were bad in the past?

Meanwhile, Jewish people are pure as the driven snow.
