Was: Israel is at War; Now: Scoopers diagnose your anti-Semitism

[MU82]

So, my opinion of what abusive language to call out disagrees with your opinion of what abusive language needs to be called out.

Therefore, my job is to conform to your definition of abusive language.

Oh, and nice touch ending with more abusive language.

But wait, you don't define this as abusive, and since your definition is all that matters, it is not abusive.

Got it

Yes, me calling you "kitten" is the exact same as you accusing several of our fellow MU alums of being "Jew-haters."

No false equivalence there at all, kitten.

[The Sultan]

The moderator that banned me called me a "douche canoe" already. I'll check with Rocky to see if these opinions are allowed.

Because only moderators and progressive-oriented posters can use mean and aggressive language.

I get it ... the abusive language that is constantly leveled at me is justified .... none of them are "douche canoes."

1. You called multiple people anti-semites here. Repeatedly. If you think calling you a "douche canoe" once is the same thing that's a you problem.

2. Moderators can do what they want.  You can leave if you don't like it.

3.  You can nail yourself back up on your cross now.

Great post. It also pairs very well with the sentiments in your previously well appreciated post, e.g. the rush to label anyone anti-x if they raise concerns against an element of group x. As an example some on here would rush to label someone an anti-semite, for being concerned about language coming from the extremists within the Likud party and their allies.

That's a political gripe, not a bias gripe, and one shared by many people within Israel.

Israel formed a unity government after October 7. Benny Gantz is now part of the same government as Bibi. He agrees with Bibi.

So, who in Israel is disagreeing with Likud right now? They are all the same now.

The domestic divisions around the courts have all been pushed aside. They all have one focus and goal: the coming ground war.

Everything else is on hold and might be for a very long time.

It had to be done, and I'm glad they did it. But it sure is convenient for Bibi.

The automatic message that I was banned for a week referenced "moderator complaints." No moderator told me what line they think I crossed. Instead, I was called a "Douche Canoe" by a moderator.

What you wrote above is your assumption or what you want to believe. Unless ... you have some inside knowledge about banning posters, I'm not privy too.

Lastly, this is my point of view on why I was banned.

I wrote this

https://www.muscoop.com/index.php?topic=65081.msg1575613#msg1575613

The conceit that most of the pro-Palestinian crowd here has (Galway, Hards. 21jump, Jockey, Brew, etc) starts with the assumption that everyone thinks like them. They think everyone wants the same things they do.

They do not.

Palestinians want one thing: the slaughter and elimination of all Jews.

Ban this guy. This is such a horesh!t statement.

Brew also chimed in

This is all bigoted hateful nonsense. You don't have a goddamn clue what you are talking about. This is probably the most racist thing I've ever seen on this site, and that's saying something.

Right after this, I was banned for a week.

I'll let you figure out the motivation.

ADDED

In the ten days since this happened, how many "gas the Jews" and "river to the sea" chants has the world seen to make one think this is an entirely off-base statement?

Where are the Arab and Palestinian condemnation of October 7 and these statements in the last ten days?

I assume you want me to stop being abusive, and you think this kind of language is constructive to that end.

I am guessing that you were banned for calling people anti-semites. Many people pointed out to you that it was unfair, yet you kept doing it.  Mostly for attention seeking purposes I might add.

No, I don't care.
If you think calling people circle-jerking Jew haters makes you and your arguments more credible, go for it. But you're being hypocritical when you then whine about insults thrown your way.

[TSmith34, Inc.]

Give Heisy a break. It's gotta be mentally exhausting to scream "Jew haters" while also being on the same side as Tuckems and the khaki-wearing, tiki torch-wielding, "Jews will not replace us!" very fine people.

Or maybe not. Cognitive dissonance and plain hypocrisy are features now, not bugs for that crowd.

My abusive language is wrong, but your abusive language is acceptable ... from the guy who put me on ignore.

I had to put Heisy and his 10,000 word essays on ignore, but he is still quoting zerohedge? LOL.

Never heard this term until this week. Thanks for increasing my vocabulary, scoop!

I stopped using circle jerk to describe this place months ago.

And show me where I said "jew hater"?

I do not recall using that term. And I certainly never used these two terms together.

Until you can show me where I said "Jew Hater" (and yes, I used anti-Semite, but that is not the term you accuse me of saying), it is all part of the abuse you constantly heap because I must be demonized and marginalized.

Like you said, you don't care. You think you are entirely justified to constantly attack me with whatever terms you want to accuse me of saying.

Dear Douche Canoe, I see you've embraced it.  Catchy, eh?

It would be funnier if Rocky had imposed it from on high.

The difference between antisemitism and hating Jews is not a debate I expected to have today, and yet here we are.
Anyhow, here's how the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance and its 31 member countries - including the U.S. and Israel - defines antisemitism:
"Antisemitism is a certain perception of Jews, which may be expressed as hatred toward Jews."

This is from the other topic (Backlash Coming) which was locked.  Do you have a brain bleed you should be worried about, or do you just like to play fast and loose with facts?

Could someone please explain to me why the UN has lifted its ballistic missile embargo on Iran and we are just allowing this? What in the F is going on?  Infuriating and totally inexcusable.

The expiration of the U.N. sanctions falls under a "sunset" clause of the defunct 2015 Iran nuclear deal, which gave Tehran relief from American, European Union and U.N. sanctions in exchange for limiting its nuclear program. Former U.S. President Donald Trump abandoned that deal in 2018 and restored U.S. on Iran sanctions.
