    Why are you trying to distract from that?

    I am not trying to distract from that, I thought I made myself clear:

    this particular report seems to be more concerned with anti-Trans and neo-Nazi propaganda which is indeed a real problem, and their research here would otherwise probably be very useful

    But if Jonathan Greenblatt of the ADL is defending the genocide of Palestinians, that is some pretty important context. If there happens anything in the report about pro-Palestine protests being equated with neo-Nazis, you need to take those parts with an extra few grains of salt.

      To which I indicated that you were poisoning the well. If you have another reliable source that confirms or refutes the information in the article, that would be useful to the conversation.

        Wild how zionists will just project all the shit their country does onto people who oppose them. The ADL is made to poison the well on antisemitism, you’re being wilfully ignorant of that bc hurting the feelings of some Israelis is a bigger tragedy to you than them murdering thousands of Palestinians.

        “If you have another reliable source that confirms or refutes the information in the article, that would be useful to the conversation.” how about you get one? One that isn’t run by a state intent on labeling all opposition to genocide as antisemitic?

          I can see you’re not interested in the information in the article, or my suggestion to find confirming or refuting evidence related to the article (ie being critical) and would rather take the discussion elsewhere.

          I won’t be continuing.

          https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ad_hominem

          Ad hominem (Latin for ‘to the person’), short for argumentum ad hominem, refers to several types of arguments which are fallacious. Typically this term refers to a rhetorical strategy where the speaker attacks the character, motive, or some other attribute of the person making an argument rather than attacking the substance of the argument itself.
