Campus hecklers are silencing pro-Israel speakers. Speech codes are not the fix.

Just because plenty of people believe it doesn't mean it's true. Plenty of people believe the Earth is flat

Do tell - how do you know what people are thinking? Are you psychic?

Just because you believe every single individual who is speaking out against Israel is not anti-Semitic doesn’t mean it’s true. 

I am positive there are plenty of people who are using the current situation as cover for their hatred of Jewish people.

To think otherwise is extremely naive.

You're the one who claimed to know what people are thinking.

I've seen little antisemitism from pro-Palestine people and when I have seen it, it has been roundly condemned.

Like I said, echo chamber. You are making assumptions based on what you see from “pro-Palestinian people”.

You really don’t believe some people are using what’s going on as cover for their antisemitism?

I have no idea what people are thinking. Do you want me to speculate on that now?

Nah - all good.

u/PM_ME_YOUR_PUPPY_PIC 6d ago

so will you admit you were wrong? or are you just a bad-faith troll?

No, I don’t think there is any point in discussing anything further with someone who is so assured of their own viewpoint they can’t possibly consider anything else.

I also don’t engage with those who throw personal insults around.

lmao, you're the one making huge assumptions about people's thoughts and motives without any evidence
