Activist group Jewish Voice for Peace were also at the gay parade in Chicago. They were part of the lunasun Jun 2017 #76

They are the kind of Jewish group that is acceptable oberliner Jun 2017 #77

That's the litmus test applied to us. EllieBC Jun 2017 #82

Intersectionality oberliner Jun 2017 #78

Do you know what intersectionality actually means? Gravitycollapse Jun 2017 #86

Yes, it means a bunch of BS oberliner Jun 2017 #87

Yep. It is BS! grossproffit Jun 2017 #96

So I'll mark you down as not having a single clue what intersectionality means. Gravitycollapse Jun 2017 #105

Exactly oberliner Jun 2017 #106

Intersectionality is not a made up term. Gravitycollapse Jun 2017 #107

Yes, it is oberliner Jun 2017 #108

I'm a scholar on intersectionality. I don't need a lecture from you on the matter. Gravitycollapse Jun 2017 #109

Not giving a lecture oberliner Jun 2017 #110

Let me remind you that you claimed intersectionality was a made up buzzword. Gravitycollapse Jun 2017 #111

Thank you for your courteous and respectful response oberliner Jun 2017 #112

"Zionists should be expelled from social justice movements" oberliner Jun 2017 #114

"Zionists should be expelled from social justice movements." Rustyeye77 Jun 2017 #116

Blatant antisemitism. I'm both ashamed and disgusted to see this being posted here. grossproffit Jun 2017 #118

Having been subject to actual antisemitism... Gravitycollapse Jun 2017 #123

Thinly veiled? It's not veiled at all. My statement speaks for itself. Gravitycollapse Jun 2017 #119

This is one of the most disgusting posts I've seen on this forum. grossproffit Jun 2017 #117

Do you support the atrocities committed by the Israeli government? Gravitycollapse Jun 2017 #120

Criticizing a government is one thing, denying a country the right to exist is another. grossproffit Jun 2017 #121

Interesting. I'm sure you hold that same standard for the people of Palestine. Gravitycollapse Jun 2017 #122

American flags aren't welcome either. They're triggered by the flag of the country they're in. grossproffit Jun 2017 #74

Apparently, only two flags are triggers, American and Israeli (of which there were none). Behind the Aegis Jun 2017 #89

Palestinian flags were plentiful oberliner Jun 2017 #91
