[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If the violent people in masks are really Jewish agitators, why don't the other protesters de-mask them and show the world who they really are? [/quote]

It is an antisemitic trope to imply that protestors need to mask in order to avoid retribution from the pro Israel American community for voicing their views.[/quote]

I’d love to discuss this more. Doxing is a real thing with real consequences.  I personally know of a periodontist in MA who was fired for removing an illegally posted hostage poster in Nov 23 after a photo was taken of her and posted by pro Isreal supporters.

I don’t know who the masked people are at the student rallies.  But I could see if I was one of them I would want to hide my face for fear of retribution which I know has been taken in the past.

How exactly is that antisemitism? [/quote]
If the poster was put up illegally, call the non-emergency police number. Don't look like a Hamas-sympathizing a-hole by removing it yourself.[/quote]

Call the non-emergency police line? Are you serious?

The longer this goes on, the more individuals become convinced that Zionists truly are irredeemable. No other group seems to consistently find ways to reach new lows, to find new ways to take strident positions that just naturally seem to repel the concept of “doing what’s right”.

Making sure that someone loses their job, possibly their career and livelihood because they removed a poster? Man, what in the actual F is your defect?

DP.

QQ, what if one of your employees put up a poster in public stating that HIV is god's punishment for homosexuals?

Would you fire them?

I sure as heck would.[/quote]

In that case, sure.

But how in the F do your eyes see analogy in those two scenarios?

What is wrong with you?[/quote]

Both scenarios involve totally inappropriate (and inhumane) public behavior.

You just agree with one POV, but not the other.

So, to answer your question, there's nothing wrong with me. The problem is that you don't have a principled position, whereas I do.

FWIW, I would also 100% fire a pro-Israel advocate who removed a poster commemorating Palestinian casualties.
