In reply to the discussion: How anti-Semites protect themselves [View all]Scootaloo
(25,699 posts)18. Well, golly, Shira...
Unlike some posters, my ethical standards don't shift and slide according to which "team" is speaking. Of course Holocaust denial is antisemitic.
Pointing out that shitheads like Steve Apfel use "antisemitism" as a bullhorn screech however, is not. Apfel is decrying that people are pointing this out... while his entire article is designed to do exactly that.
As I said, the average reader of the Times of Israel seems to either be easily confused. THough I suppose they could just have no ethical grounding, and might be people who will try to justify death threats against any Jew they disagree with, hmmm.
