    Lol. They even made her habib resemble the anti Semitic, conservative KKK to get that “HATE” looking right.

    It is correct and just to criticize the cruel andhorrific policies of Israel. It isn't correct or just to blame all Jews or treat Jewish people differently because they are Jewish.

    But Israel should absolutely be criticized for their discrimination and oppression.

    Well, we now know, the republicans were simply playing a partisan game and really didn't care about hate towards religious groups...

    Yep they hate religion and love partisan game playing. You should stick to your strong game(copy,paste) when you’re not in meetings of course.

    This board was unanimous is denouncing white supremacists.

    Anti-semitism apologists are much more common here.

    Denouncing both is the way to go here.

    Were the same people upset about the sham anti-hate bill, upset about the sham bill that labeled democrats in favor of infanticide?

    I am sure we can check that thread and see all the same posters angry about it as well.

    Individualism

    Free speech

    Free expression

    Being politically correct, or incorrect (for some)

    Criticism

    I think these are some core values we enjoy, and that have done us well for centuries and perhaps for centuries more.

    My criticism of what I have seen (negative reactions) fall under these two:

    1- Automatically calling up hate or anti-Semitic without an attempt to understand... that's effectively against those values. It also elevate Israel to a god-like status where you cannot touch or say anything negative about.

    2- Automatically follow along with the opinion of groups, without your own thoughts... that's a lack of critical thoughts and is part of group-think.

    If you have consider what she has said, and even if you (as most aren't in the position to) can't have a conversation to clarify, and still consider it hate or anti-Semitic, I'm curious why it is for you, in your own words of course (meaning no meme, no tweets, no link to other opinions :) )
