Oy vey! You've got to love how spewing such casual bigotry against random people doesn't ring any alarm bells for people like this Paul person. I'm sure he considers himself a "progressive" lol.

Tel Aviv is not the capital of Israel, and the rest of the ludicrous claims and blood libels in your post are at about the same level of accuracy. At least you're consistent.

I don't usually reply to meta posts, but I can't help but agree with this. As much as I appreciate the work moderators do here any other day of the year, it was disappointing that there was no discussion allowed on October 7th - i
