I am not caring about what you say, or talking about you all the time! This is you, on ignore!!! I’m not responding to you! I have not kept talking about you, again and again and again, for many of my 70 posts in this thread, which I am ignoring! [I am not certain that I have the mechanics of this ignore thing down pat yet,](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aGbPs5y3oz8) but I am ignoring you! Finn, do you hear how hard I’m ignoring you, because I don’t think I can ignore you any harder!” > [@](#): > > Yes, he does, but only in the most inexcusable cases. He frequently finds a way to excuse Israeli racism in ways that would be difficult to get way with here in the USA (well, he’s from Texas so maybe the standards are different there). “I can’t actually cite any of the examples anywhere, but Finn surely goes on and on excusing lots of racism, yep! All the time! Also, he doesn’t excuse racism a lot and actually condemns it, but this is because I, Damuri the Great, am so brilliant as to make those examples absolutely rhetorically inexcusable, so Finn must relent. You don’t have to thank me. But you might thank me for keeping Finn from calling you an anti-Semite.” > [@](#): > > Yeah, thats part of the problem. “Finn does not make apologies for racism, this is part of the problem! Also, the fact that I am not particularly intelligent or cognizant of what I read, that too is part of the problem!” > [@](#): > > Well, when you combine that with comments like “I wonder why you focus on Israel so much, I wonder what it is about Israel that makes their transgressions worthy of so much more attention than all the others in the world” That sounds like an accusation of racism to me. "It sounds like that, of course, is because I am an idiot. Also I think Finn is very coy. Although, to be fair, maybe one of the many reasons that Finn says people may be arguing for a specific narrative is that some people who aren’t racist against Jews but are bigots against Israel might say something like:" > [@Moderators seem biased \[Moved to the Pit for continued inter-poster bickering\]](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/moderators-seem-biased-moved-to-the-pit-for-continued-inter-poster-bickering/541820/64): > > I don’t sepdn time slowly digesting new facts into my gestalt of what is going on in the middle east, instead I find myself trying to fifure out how new facts can be incorporated into a narrative against Israel and I have to make a conscious effort to retain objectivity --- _[View the full topic](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/finnagain-is-kind-of-a-shitty-person/572787)._
