They conflate antisemitism with anti-Zionism & anti-crimes against humanity in order to trample on people’s first amendment rights to speech & assembly.

    Theyre also ignoring the very real hate crimes being perpetrated against Palestinian-Americans, like the little boy that was stabbed to death by his racist landlord.

        This condemnation thing is super dumb. How does terror, murder and using civilians as shields need to be explicitly comdenmed?! That’s one of the things where condemnation is a given until stated otherwise. But to create a nice and clean-cut narrative, someone who is against Israel’s campaign against civilians hast to be explicitly against Hamas or they must be pro Hamas… Which is bullshit. I talk about Hamas less because there is nothing to discuss, no opinions to share. No sane person can be on the side of fucking Hamas.

      They didn’t ignore that, in fact Biden gave a speech condemning it.

      Turns out stabbing children is already illegal, so what else needs to be done other than throw the murderer in prison for life.

        Uh huh, and hate-related antisemitic threats were also already illegal, so why does Biden need to pledge additional action? It certainly seems like one is taking precedence over the other.
