Topic | Pro-Israeli counter protestors attack anti-genocide protestors at UCLA camp |

Im sure there are people that say that any criticism of Israel is anti-semitic, but I don't agree with them, as Ive said many times. There are legitimate fears out there that people have that this is an anti-semitic movement. I don't think it's true, mainly, and if it's not true, wouldn't you want everybody to know it isn't true? The phrase can be problematic, don't think I've ever said otherwise. I just don't think it really is in these protests, because it's been co-opted. Remember when you said phrases can be co-opted and then acted like that couldn't possibly have happened to this phrase because it completely shuts down your whining? You of all people saying someone else can't be engaged with is fucking deeply hilarious and hypocritical. And we know you won't engage in topics about the actual conflict anymore; it's way harder to hide your actual goal of deflecting and downplaying the actual ongoing genocide if you have to talk about it directly. ...
