(1,638 posts)hate Jews if they think non-discriminatory democracies are better than ethno-religious states, or are against the idea of taking territory but not granting the people in said territory citizenship because they're of the wrong ethno-religous group (and not letting them be citizens of their own country, because you want to control the land they live on).
Don't people wonder why, if so many people are secretly antisemitic, so many threads about prominent Jews are devoid of any antisemitism and usually met with overwhelming support?
Though it is interesting that several of the common attacks on Greenwald - including that he only says what he says because he's trying to make money, that he's dishonest and untrustworthy, and calling into question his loyalty to the US - echo some of the worst antisemitic caricatures. But for some reason I've never heard anyone called out on it (neither have I heard people called out for comparing Putin/Russia to Hitler/Nazi Germany).
