Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

Given that Isreal is calling everyone and their mother (extra ironic in Judaism) anti semitic for not agreeing enthusiastically enough to ethnic cleansing/genocide, I am pretty confident they're the ones who made the term meaningless. They litterally called the UN a bunch of Nazi sympathizers who would have supported the holocaust while at a UN meeting. Like my dude, why don't you go ~~sheckle~~ heckle some actual nazi sympathizers and see if you walk out of the room.
Thank you. I couldn't have said it any better. I mean, sometimes we joke about horrible stuff like this because we feel powerless to do anything about it, so at least we can poke fun at some of the silly aspects of the situation.
Are you a member of any out groups?
What is an out group?
Basically any non majority population segments. In the West, typically straight white cishet male Christian. In reality we should include the poor but in the States they're just embarrassed millionaires without their money yet, and regurgitate the views and will of the Haves.
Wait, you're saying this is a non-majority population segment?
Lol .. yeah def left out an important "not"
Way worse than the extra "not" my client pointed out in my PowerPoint yesterday
Okay, makes sense.
I was confused as shit there for a second.
It's a post about the US government's spending. Equivocating them proves my point that they're just looking for an opportunity to normalize a dangerous sentiment. That antisemitism doesn't exist. A disinformation campaign that has existed for centuries.
IIRC Eichmann kinda liked the state of Israel. He considered it a thing of the past that Nazis "had" to exterminate Jews, in the spirit of "well, it's ancient history, everybody has done that, we all have our own racial interests in mind".
