33. You're not overreacting, but like several problems, I've quit responding because of the vitriol.

Some contend the I/P trouble is all racist. Others need a bone to chew and believe all official talk is a lie except the truth they've chosen. The bankers are evil meme is a symptom and they will not be allow anyone to point any fallacies.

Looking up the source of the 'banksters' meme leads to Israel. They say it's not because they are Jews. Just that they are rich, powerful and sneaky and suddenly the Protocols and Holocaust denial pop up in the material. Really, I hoped people were not going to be fooled by this again.

The sources can't be admitted because they know they will be banned. It's a shame we don't have a place to discuss both sides without fanaticism. I don't feel comfortable posting here to avoid the poisoned I/P forum, as I am not Jewish or religious, and this in the religion section.
