Comment Re:radicalized = show support for Gaza (Score 1) 148

created to attack Israel and justify antisemitism with the lie that it's "anti-zionism". Any time I read crap like oumuamua's lies, I know they're either a straight-up Nazi or a wannabe-Nazi or too stupid to give consideration too.

Yes, good point, because if the colonial entity illegally occupying Palestinian lands were composed of Chinese, or Africans, or Irish or Italians, or ... anyone else, the native population would be perfectly fine with it. If that were the case Hamas wouldn't bother trying to fight back at all. It's just filthy anti-semitism that drives Hamas to attack their oppressors and motivates others to condemn the zionists. See how moronic your argument makes you look ?

Comment Re: The correct response (Score 2) 414

And please explain why calling for the 'death' of Israel is any different that calling for the 'death' of apartheid-era South Africa or the 'death' of Crimea as a part of Russian territory or further still the 'death' of 'Great Britain and her American colonies'. None of these implies the actual death of a single human being let alone 'all Jews'. They all called for the dissolution of tyrannical states which violated the norms of international law or common justice. For extra credit you can please explain why if the 'death' of Israel as the controlling entity over this specific geographic area and population is such an unthinkable horror why was it not equally horrific when the preceding entity, the British Mandate of Palestine, was extinguished to make room for the state of Israel. This episode has nothing to do with anti-Semitism or fears of violence against Jews and has everything to do with silencing criticism of Zionism and Israel's continued terrorist atrocities against the native population in the illegally occupied Palestinian territories. And if the most fundamental of American freedoms, the freedom of speech, has to be sacrificed to support this aim that's just fine and dandy with the Zionists. After all, we should always remember the immortal words of Netenyahu in the Knesset: "Who cares what the American's will think; WE OWN THE AMERICANS"

Comment /. DOES NOT allow anon posting (Score 1) 152

Ok, this is really fâ(TM)ing strange, the story claims /. permits anonymous posting yet my recollection was that they had banned it. When I tried to post this comment, sure enough, it was prohibited until I logged in. Does anyone else see this behavior, why would /. lie about permitting anon posting when itâ(TM)s trivial to verify that such a claim is false ? Can anyone explain ?

>> Call Epstein's victims a "harem" is nasty, Oh ffs if you're going to comment on an issue could you at least acquaint yourself with the relevant context. RMS DID NOT coin the term harem to refer to Epstein's victims it was in common use by most news publications commenting on Epstein at the time. He simply repeated the language in common usage at the time. >> The argument that there is nothing wrong with a 70 year old man having sex with an underage girl who just happens to be at his friend's private island is fine as long as they don't ask any awkward questions like who this underage girl is, is nasty. You're right, it is nasty, so its a good thing that RMS didn't do that or you might have a valid point. He simply demanded precision, there is a world of difference between what Minsky did and pulling a knife on a girl beating her into submission and then having sex with her (ie violent sexual assault or rape) . RMS was merely point out that it was wrong to conflate two such vastly different scenarios. The fact that you and your ilk who are critical of RMS have to resort to lies and distortions in every single attack such as you comment speaks volumes about the fact that you have nothing valid to say. IF you have a valid point to make you should be able to do it without telling lies.
