Reply #30: one would think that we'd be "one bitten twice shy," but that's not how it's shaking out

[nashville_brook]

just look at all the "i hate" that 'Iranian fellow'" threads on this liberal/progressive board. apropos of nothing, that "Venezuelan fellow" has been added to the hate fest as if to say, "while we're at it..."

any thoughts on how we might not let this happen again'? b/c taking the temperature of the front page, it seems that even the liberal/progressive DU loves their hate of that Iranian fellow more than they hate the coming war. DU wants it both ways -- breathing life into a punching bag, but rejecting the reality created.

as a matter of fact, after reading a few more front page threads, i'm seeing another, more frightening meme emerge -- that, if you don't profess your hate for the Iranian fellow, you are a holocaust denial enabler.
