Highlight:

Bernie Sanders had some awful anti-Semitic crap hurled at him. [View all] Aerows Apr 2016 OP

All over the world they are stirring anti semitism TheFarS1de Apr 2016 #1

Yep. mmonk Apr 2016 #5

If ONLY: Smarmie Doofus Apr 2016 #13

The admins need to take action, I agree. They look culpable. Bluenorthwest Apr 2016 #14

Once a poster gets to stay after linking to Stormfront QC Apr 2016 #24

OMG Aerows Apr 2016 #38

Good question. I rarely visit this cesspool but haven't seen that. KittyWampus Apr 2016 #96

I would if I had evidence Aerows Apr 2016 #99

Oh, to clarify Aerows Apr 2016 #152

Last year, the post was hidden and the person earned a timeout but they're still a member. beam me up scottie Apr 2016 #106

That's kinda shocking NWCorona Apr 2016 #143

It shocked me, too Aerows Apr 2016 #148

At least once in December angrychair Apr 2016 #193

Holy shit. Aerows Apr 2016 #203

Or have stronger standards. JudyM Apr 2016 #25

Post removed Post removed Apr 2016 #41

There are many things I wish the Admins would take action on. KittyWampus Apr 2016 #95

It's amazing Aerows Apr 2016 #110

And he didn't flip out like a Clinton! nt Joob Apr 2016 #2

That was a telling point Aerows Apr 2016 #146

Anti-semitism is a cancer and it has penetrated everywhere. nt Bonobo Apr 2016 #3

It is disgraceful. n/t Aerows Apr 2016 #147

Watch him... Fairgo Apr 2016 #4

zThat Is BAD... But lookAt This New Attack Based On False Accusations From Hillary! She's With... CorporatistNation Apr 2016 #32

My thoughts exactly Aerows Apr 2016 #150

Most people who being up the Zionist crap are anti Semite JI7 Apr 2016 #6

Bernie was probably prepeared for this kind of crap... Califonz Apr 2016 #7

Yes. Unfortunate. I felt early on to explain some mmonk Apr 2016 #9

like jesse Jackson's comments JI7 Apr 2016 #10

why runaway hero Apr 2016 #101

I agree - there are plenty Aerows Apr 2016 #115

Behind you runaway hero Apr 2016 #123

Stand beside me, my friend. Aerows Apr 2016 #124

absolutely runaway hero Apr 2016 #164

Right there with you. Aerows Apr 2016 #172

Beyond disgusted. I abhor anti-Semites. grossproffit Apr 2016 #8

Thank you. Aerows Apr 2016 #89

Nicely handled...He could have also told him this BeyondGeography Apr 2016 #11

DU's Hillary supporters are already getting posts hidden in this thread, that's how deeply they are Bluenorthwest Apr 2016 #15

There is one hidden post nt Trenzalore Apr 2016 #17

One out of 18 posts in the thread about antisemitism is a Hillary supporter getting a hide. Bluenorthwest Apr 2016 #19

As far as comments go Trenzalore Apr 2016 #22

Suggesting that antisemitism isn't real, but "planted" ... Hello!? JudyM Apr 2016 #27

I said it wasn't in good taste Trenzalore Apr 2016 #30

He's not because he is running on his issues, not his demographic, as Clinton is. JudyM Apr 2016 #34

He's a politician (I'm not sure why people seem to ignore this) Trenzalore Apr 2016 #35

The issue is about his being Jewish, not a Brooklynite. JudyM Apr 2016 #36

I strongly disagree with you. That poster deals in classic tropes. 'I smell them, they lie' Bluenorthwest Apr 2016 #28

Calling someone a liar Trenzalore Apr 2016 #29

It takes an extremely dishonest person to create unlikely scenarios in the absence of facts. DisgustipatedinCA Apr 2016 #56

That is the most insulting comment of them all to suggest that Bernie would want to be called jillan Apr 2016 #81

I said it was in poor taste. nt Trenzalore Apr 2016 #83

No that statement had at least two well known antisemitic tropes nadinbrzezinski Apr 2016 #109

It's pretty stunning Aerows Apr 2016 #84

Some people are more outraged by pointing out anti-Semitism than the actual bigotry. beam me up scottie Apr 2016 #87

What are your metrics? That post uses the 'I smell them' trope which I first heard in Vienna in 1973 Bluenorthwest Apr 2016 #21

I'm Jewish. I am not a Sanders supporter. I thought Sanders handled it extremely well still_one Apr 2016 #26

Is that what I said? No. But I support you in speaking out because very few in Camp Clinton Bluenorthwest Apr 2016 #33

no it wasn't, and I appreciate your point. I also was being sarcastic, and didn't make that clear. still_one Apr 2016 #39

Do you have a compilation of links to prove your point? Cause I think your assertion KittyWampus Apr 2016 #98

I don't think Aerows Apr 2016 #100

Anti-Semitic bigots are outing themselves all over the place. beam me up scottie Apr 2016 #16

Bernie handled this well, his supporters should be proud of his handling Sheepshank Apr 2016 #23

You are very wrong, DU has seen some horrible material and those who post it are not innocent. Bluenorthwest Apr 2016 #31

Yes it is, and you have to wonder why there is so much vile hatred towards Bernie. beam me up scottie Apr 2016 #45

I was flat told down thread Aerows Apr 2016 #68

I saw that, consider the source and the reason. beam me up scottie Apr 2016 #69

How dare you mention Aerows Apr 2016 #74

How about we say we're both sorry that people are offended by pointing out bigotry? beam me up scottie Apr 2016 #75

Pretty much. Aerows Apr 2016 #85

Well sheared JackInGreen Apr 2016 #102

The hidden post on this thread tries to belittle anti-semitism by saying it was a plant! riderinthestorm Apr 2016 #37

yup. I was shocked at the dog whistles in numerous articles about Archer magical thyme Apr 2016 #46

Completely agreed! jillan Apr 2016 #88

This was a big WTF. I also found the questioning of how is Autumn Apr 2016 #94

"This was a big WTF" Aerows Apr 2016 #97

Or how he's too "cheap" to pay an accountant to do his taxes. beam me up scottie Apr 2016 #105

The whole thing Aerows Apr 2016 #125

Well said! Especially the last part. beam me up scottie Apr 2016 #54

I should apologize for calling out rabid anti-Semitic bigotry? Not on your life. beam me up scottie Apr 2016 #44

I've seen you do it and I've been the recipient of your labelling Sheepshank Apr 2016 #48

Stop pretending you've been injured, I'm familiar with your posting history. beam me up scottie Apr 2016 #49

Yup...you did. I shall never ever forgive you for it. Sheepshank Apr 2016 #50

Calling out anti-Semitic bigotry isn't ugliness, posting it and pretending it doesn't exist is. beam me up scottie Apr 2016 #51

Whe you apply it to innocent people it's ugly, slimy and bullying nt Sheepshank Apr 2016 #52

I cited specific instances, if you feel included that's on you. beam me up scottie Apr 2016 #53

Name one innocent TM99 Apr 2016 #108

Me Sheepshank Apr 2016 #112

Provide links TM99 Apr 2016 #113

Exactly. Aerows Apr 2016 #118

That is one of BMUS TM99 Apr 2016 #119

Indeed. Aerows Apr 2016 #153

Have you seen your Transparency page?!?!? angrychair Apr 2016 #194

oh...apparently thin skinned BS adorables dislike the truth about Bernie n/t Sheepshank Apr 2016 #196

Yes, you caught him angrychair Apr 2016 #197

.that^ X100 840high Apr 2016 #103

All this outrage over calling out anti-Semitism, it's almost like some nerves were struck. beam me up scottie Apr 2016 #104

Gee that sounds like a personal attack to me. I'd remove that post if I were you. haikugal Apr 2016 #132

No Sheepshank Apr 2016 #138

Not only did he handle it with grace -- the audience was incredibly Nanjeanne Apr 2016 #18

I'm not a Bernie supporter in this primary season Codeine Apr 2016 #20

yes he did still_one Apr 2016 #40

Thank you, Codeine Aerows Apr 2016 #130

Anti-semitism is a form of cannibalism tralala Apr 2016 #42

I just hope no media tries to spin it then I'll never forgive Joob Apr 2016 #43

Oh my word Aerows Apr 2016 #55

he handled that beautifully... magical thyme Apr 2016 #47

He really did. Aerows Apr 2016 #58

heh!heh! just saw your little birdie magical thyme Apr 2016 #63

What's telling is that no fellow Jews from the Jewish group have responded that they agree. stevenleser Apr 2016 #57

Oh my. Aerows Apr 2016 #59

Nope. stevenleser Apr 2016 #60

I didn't realize Aerows Apr 2016 #61

Oh sure you did. And if the situation were reversed you would be saying the same things I'm saying. stevenleser Apr 2016 #62

For someone that made exceptionally strong statements in 2008 Aerows Apr 2016 #65

And yet melman Apr 2016 #71

^^^THIS^^^ beam me up scottie Apr 2016 #72

Exactamundo. Like we ought to listen to the guy that reports for Newsmax Ned_Devine Apr 2016 #78

Bernie appears anywhere and you guys dont question that at all. The double standard is glaring. stevenleser Apr 2016 #79

It's definitely the messenger Ned_Devine Apr 2016 #86

Agreed. Aerows Apr 2016 #151

But his flag lapel pin is divine! nt Bonobo Apr 2016 #156

Which discredits your opinion. nt stevenleser Apr 2016 #186

... Ned_Devine Apr 2016 #195

Yep, when you have two standards for the same behavior it discredits you. Period. stevenleser Apr 2016 #199

... Ned_Devine Apr 2016 #202

Like when you blamed Jews for Anti-Semitism in Copenhagen? Bonobo Apr 2016 #204

You are not the arbiter of who can and cannot Aerows Apr 2016 #155

Sure I am. And so is everyone else. And I call BS stevenleser Apr 2016 #187

I'd really like to know Aerows Apr 2016 #219

You are out of line. Joe the Revelator Apr 2016 #117

When has that ever stopped him? TM99 Apr 2016 #120

Back up you claims. 'Same folks' you say. Which folks are those? Bluenorthwest Apr 2016 #64

You can see for yourself the hosts and the folks who post there. stevenleser Apr 2016 #80

I like elleng Aerows Apr 2016 #162

My point is that you are smearing me and doing so without any fucking reason but your own bias. Bluenorthwest Apr 2016 #165

Nope, there is plenty of reason for my opinion. See BtA's #154. In particular... stevenleser Apr 2016 #177

Pardon me for cursing Aerows Apr 2016 #131

LOL! And we're supposed to believe that you speak for them? beam me up scottie Apr 2016 #67

I'm a Jew, Steve. Warren DeMontague Apr 2016 #107

As usual you are wrong Bjorn Against Apr 2016 #114

Indeed Aerows Apr 2016 #159

Oh I am not the one proven wrong in our recent interactions. stevenleser Apr 2016 #175

Just because you get a few black people to defend you does not mean all black people feel the same Bjorn Against Apr 2016 #178

First of all, your title is racist. Second of all, you got no person of color to agree with you stevenleser Apr 2016 #179

No, no, and no Bjorn Against Apr 2016 #180

Yes, yes and yes. stevenleser Apr 2016 #182

Sorry but I don't find racist imagery and sarcasm aimed at an entire race hilarious like you do Bjorn Against Apr 2016 #183

#1 none of the group in question found it racist. #2 it wasn't funny. So you got that part stevenleser Apr 2016 #184

I did not dismiss anyone Bjorn Against Apr 2016 #189

Once again, I've sent PMs to folks in the AA group and I will let them decide if you dismissed them stevenleser Apr 2016 #190

See Steve this is what you don't understand... Bjorn Against Apr 2016 #191

The funniest part is you were racist in your failed attempt to couch me as racist stevenleser Apr 2016 #198

Steve it has nothing to do with my candidate Bjorn Against Apr 2016 #201

Upon reflection, your comments are actually twice as racist as I originally thought. stevenleser Apr 2016 #210

You are now accusing me of data mining? Seriously? Bjorn Against Apr 2016 #211

What is it that you don't get? stevenleser Apr 2016 #214

What the hell are you talking about? Bjorn Against Apr 2016 #216

I was very clear. If you don't understand, read it again until you do. nt stevenleser Apr 2016 #221

The voices that you "know" (to the extent that anyone "knows" anyone, on-line) ... 1StrongBlackMan Apr 2016 #192

You speak for no one but yourself. Joe the Revelator Apr 2016 #116

"If you really cared, you wouldn't let shit like this stand" Aerows Apr 2016 #160

Nope, see #154. Despite the tone, BtA and I agree on virtually everything. nt stevenleser Apr 2016 #176

Here's a Jew that agrees, Steve. Bonobo Apr 2016 #126

It was a moment Aerows Apr 2016 #139

To say "I am proud to be a Jew" and then to criticize Israel as he did... Bonobo Apr 2016 #140

Why is it telling? Behind the Aegis Apr 2016 #154

Righteous! You totally rock, BtA! beam me up scottie Apr 2016 #157

Thank you for being an amazing voice Aerows Apr 2016 #163

You, you can speak for me. Joe the Revelator Apr 2016 #166

Good, because he said the same thing I did. nt stevenleser Apr 2016 #185

No. He did not. Not even close. Not even kind of close. Joe the Revelator Apr 2016 #200

Steve has a habit of saying he knows what people think. On Judaism, he is no BtA. nt Bonobo Apr 2016 #205

I very very rarely get 'really' mad online. This entire exchange made me feel like the guy in your Joe the Revelator Apr 2016 #206

Yes he did and he confirmed that in a followup. nt stevenleser Apr 2016 #209

We are in violent agreement. stevenleser Apr 2016 #169

You're sure of a lot of things. Maybe you should actually listen instead of telling people Bonobo Apr 2016 #173

I will freely admit I am utterly confused. Behind the Aegis Apr 2016 #207

I think we agree on 99.9999% of stuff, but here is the thing... stevenleser Apr 2016 #208

I think you are reaching. Behind the Aegis Apr 2016 #212

I'm not overreaching. Look what is happening to what I write. I am Jewish and mixed race. stevenleser Apr 2016 #213

Yes, you are overreaching and reacting emotionally. Behind the Aegis Apr 2016 #215

This message was self-deleted by its author stevenleser Apr 2016 #217

How many examples do you want? Pick a number. I will show you that many ridiculous stevenleser Apr 2016 #218

What does the guy say after Bernie talks... He calls out something and then everyone's boos him... JudyM Apr 2016 #66

that's some messed up shit, and SBS handled it very well. the crowd loved him for that. bettyellen Apr 2016 #70

Thank you for saying so, bettyellen Aerows Apr 2016 #128

every big crowd will have an asshole or two- especially if they do a Q+A. It was heartening to see bettyellen Apr 2016 #129

We are all in this together. Aerows Apr 2016 #133

I meant the questioner's messed up ideas. It wasn't even a question as much as it was an accusation bettyellen Apr 2016 #167

Question about all that at the end Armstead Apr 2016 #73

really sad. MFM008 Apr 2016 #76

In the link, the guy asking those questions is identified as "John Prince". Ken Burch Apr 2016 #77

I'm not a New Yorker by any means Aerows Apr 2016 #91

A person on one of the propaganda channels the other day referred to Bernie as the Jew. Skwmom Apr 2016 #82

You know who else did that? Stephanie Miller. Yes, that one. She would refer to Bernie as the jillan Apr 2016 #92

They say we should be inclusive and then they pull this crap. Skwmom Apr 2016 #93

I was schooled that there was only Aerows Apr 2016 #161

I would be lying if I said I was surprised nadinbrzezinski Apr 2016 #90

Hell, Nadin, we all *SHOULD* be! Aerows Apr 2016 #121

Funny about that photo, that fox is doing it right nadinbrzezinski Apr 2016 #122

My first thought too Nadin...the fox as doing it right! haikugal Apr 2016 #149

Okay. LOL Aerows Apr 2016 #168

Some of it from Hillary supporters here. Attorney in Texas Apr 2016 #111

Anti-Semitism isn't limited to one group here. grossproffit Apr 2016 #127

None of it is acceptable Aerows Apr 2016 #135

The guy who insulted Bernie sounded weird Rosa Luxemburg Apr 2016 #134

Probably a Trump supporter? oberliner Apr 2016 #136

who the hell was he? Rosa Luxemburg Apr 2016 #137

John Prince oberliner Apr 2016 #142

Thanks! Rosa Luxemburg Apr 2016 #144

My God, the KKK must be rolling on the floor laughing. jwirr Apr 2016 #141

I have no words. Aerows Apr 2016 #170

Well what I see is that the KKK has the two groups they jwirr Apr 2016 #181

I thought he handled it brilliantly I wish I could have been that cool dr60omg Apr 2016 #145

Me too, cher! Aerows Apr 2016 #158

I'm a tad upset Aerows Apr 2016 #171

Aerows, you do not need to have established any "bona fides" in my book to call our anti-semitism. Bonobo Apr 2016 #174

I would point back to BtA's post above which you selectively read apparently. stevenleser Apr 2016 #188

Bernie's handling of that idiot, perfect as usual for him...thanks for posting. n/t Jefferson23 Apr 2016 #220
