Your not responsible for their actions and I dont think I ever said that.

Look, I'm sorry I came at you so hard last night. I was drinking and I'm pissed off that there is a genocide going on that I feel like I can do fuck all about. Guess part of me wants to put it on other people since I feel helpless about it.

In retrospect saying we should publicly shame jews around the world for not going out of their way to scream publicly about a government that does not represent them - is stupid. I'm just frustrated and mad. I do think Israelis in the country should stand up to their government but you are right, Israelis and other jews are two very different groups of people.

I do think your voice probably carries more weight to at least some Israelis, but again, it's not your responsibility.

I applaud your willing to say you were wrong and that you were emotional and drunk. I still believe you were very wrong, but it's laudable to admit to that and recognize it.

I used to drink way too much, so I understand, trust me.

He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.

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.
