MODERATORS
I thought acknowledging their opinion was participating tokenism that gives a green light to genocide.
Interesting how you've suddenly changed your tune. Especially after that absolutely pathetic attempt to imply that I'm a racist for considering their opinion to be valid with your Latino comparison.
You are very confused. My critique of the letter and the class character of its signatories is already a recognition of it.
You have offered nothing but a series of bad faith attacks and lies. And in service of trying to undermine someone telling you to oppose genocide and not support genociders. Please do some introspection.
I have been consistent.
You are very confused and clearly did not understand that. I don't think it was confusjnglu written, though. Feel free to ask questions.
Sure. Confused. Didn't understand this:
This totally wasn't you saying I'm taking a bigoted view of Palestinians and demonstrating it by showing me what it would look like if I was talking about Latinos.
I may be an idiot, but I'm not that stupid.
You're just a troll and this conversation is over.
I know what I said with my Latino Ceos for Lower Latino Wages toy example but I still have trouble understanding how this is calling you racist.
The point of the example is that this letter is tokenizing PR. It does not represent Palestinians. One reason for this is the absurdity of trying to treat Palestinians are a homogenous group, which is implicit in the responses to this. The purpose of this letter is for Dem campaigns to be able to weaponize Palestinian identity to say, "look Palestinians support us!" Nevermind that it is a handful and they are basically all party insiders and the heads of NGOs.
The example of Latino CEOs is for you to focus on the tokenization and how you would spot it in a different context. Tokenization of an ethnicity is inherently racist, sure, the only conclusion here is that if you think the Latino CEO actions I provided questions for were racist, you should also think that tokenizing Palestinians in service of a genocidal candidate is racist.
Okay well your interpretation was incorrect or at least there is nothing unfair in what I said.
Well bye then, I guess.
