Comparing them how? Comparing genocide to bigotry? I'm not. I'm saying both need to be talked about.

Antisemitism is real. I've personally experienced it many times. It has nothing to do with Israel on my end because I don't support Israel.

Prejudice is real, antisemitism is just a small subset of that also... within US we have other groups of people who are face a lot more of it vis a vis domestic jewish population

But all we hear since Oct 7, is about this specific issue...

It is dilatory and it is bad faith behavior by the media cartel.

Is it a 'who gets treated worse' contest? Isn't all bigotry equally bad?

All you hear, maybe. I hear about all kinds of bigotry. For example, the multiple articles about how Trump is being incredibly racist that come out on a virtually daily basis and they say nothing about Jews.

It is dilatory and it is bad faith behavior by the media cartel.

Or is it that you just don't want to hear about it? That sounds like it's the real issue.

Exactly, I am shilling for Palestians since they are the ones who really need it now.

All this circle jerk is waste of energy.

My opinion, nothing more tho people can make their own choices and set their own priorities.

[–] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 0 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Got it. Your issue is that you don't have any problem with antisemitism despite the fact that Jews who are doing things like working with Jewish Voices for Peace are getting abused anyway.

You could have just led with that.

I gave you a positive statement and you keep trying to turn into something it is not... by inverting the statement. This is a logic fallacy FYI

How many jews died today in the US?

Which one was the positive statement?

Was it this?

Because all of that sure sounds like you don't have a big problem with antisemitism.

And you can only care about one issue in the world at a time? Really?

Because I don't see anyone in this thread denying the Palestinian genocide. So if that's what you're shilling for, maybe do it in a more appropriate place and don't invalidate the bigotry that I've experienced and others have experienced. You really sound like you're coming from a place of privilege here.

jfc... yes let's make this about you now...

You really sound like you're coming from a place of privilege here.

Is this privilege in the room with us right now? Did dad finally come home with that pack of cigs?

[–] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 2 points 3 months ago

It is about me. I'm a Jew. I've experienced a ton of bigotry which you don't think matters.

Is this privilege in the room with us right now? Did dad finally come home with that pack of cigs?

Ah, now it all becomes clear. You're a conservative who doesn't understand the concept of privilege despite benefiting from it.
