2020 Democratic Presidential Nominees

if Sanders wasn't a non-practicing jew and was instead say a non-practicing catholic or protestant, would the criticism of the fact that he has become wealthy when his only real accomplishment in life is being a politician who rages against inequity and business not be relevant or apt?

Not a joke.

Anti-Semitism is real, y’all.

Chris, both your posts are jokes right? Omar criticized Israel and the pro-Israel lobby. That headline is directly using anti-Semitic tropes.

Full stop.

Still have yet to hear from the other concern trolls on here about this blatant anti-semitism coming from Politico.

Lol you’re joking right? Memorial weekend Saturday and you post at 3pm and then bitch that no one responds in less than 2 hours? Jesus man.
 
Is the article itself anti-Semitic in your opinion or just the pictures? Is discussion of Sanders net worth off limits since he is Jewish?

I don’t know, Chris. Some of y’all claimed that mere discussion of the Israel lobby was anti-Semitic.

Alluding to a jew’s money trees and miserliness (cheap, but not poor) as a reason he’s a hypocrite to want to help the poor certainly is anti-Semitic. There’s only one Jew in this pool, Chris. Do the fucking math.

Norms sure have taken a nose dive in the last five years.

Some people on these boards have claimed alot of things.

To me that main crux of the argument is that Sanders, a person who demagogues against wealth accumulation, is now becoming quite wealthy himself. That's an attack he will continue to face.

Dude fuck off. 1) I don’t know where you’re getting that half of the board is only against anti-Semitism when it’s “convenient”, 2) most of the people you listed are not Bernie haters, they’re just not Bernie fellaters who understand that all candidates have flaws, including the ones the support, and 3) you’re not some moral compass who gets to snark at everyone else.

Of course that tweet is fucked and politico should know better than to have those images and words together. But Jesus you are fucking insufferable when it comes to Bernie. And I like Bernie! I have said from the beginning that the only reason I will never vote Bernie is because he’s too old, I agree with a lot of his policies and ideas. So politely go fuck yourself and enjoy the long weekend instead of trying to be morally superior to the entire Tunnels.

It’s amazing that non-Jews can tell Jews when it’s appropriate to be offended by anti-semitism and when it’s not.

There are entire threads dedicated to outrage against anti-semitism and posters on those threads are now decrying this as not a big deal.

You’re entitled to your own morality like everybody else, but next time you start concern trolling in the name of political convenience, it’ll hopefully ring as hollow to others as it does to me.

I’m just glad y’all’s responses exist for everybody to see. Carry on.

ETA: what an unhinged post, ADT. Wow.

He doesn’t argue against wealth accumulation. He argues that a very limited number of Americans can do it.
 
Why do people assume it’s a comment on his Jewishness rather than a comment on his socialist positions?

Yet, the US has the highest median income and disposable income in the world.

But regardless of your take on the criticism, it can be leveled against someone of that bent without it being anti-semitic.
 
Maybe I’m dumb, but I thought strick’s whole point was selective outrage? Omar vs Politico, one is definitely anti-Semitic and one is maybe not?

And I could wonder why you like fried chicken and watermelon so much but those would be racist tropes if you say them about me.

Do you think that is really comparable to questioning the wealth accumulation of the harps on wealth inequality most far left economic progressive in the field?
