Forums user "RedFox" does not like Jews

The BBQ Pit
1

In response to a moderator request to take it to the BBQ Pit: Jewish Dopers: Have you ever watched the film "Defamation"? - Great Debates - Straight Dope Message Board

RedFox has decided to accuse anyone who believes anti-Semitism exists at all, ever, of being an agent of the Israeli government.

His response to a request to discuss anti-Semitism in the U.S. and Europe is to crow that he is correct in his assertion that anti-Semitism is, 100% of the time, an accusation used against those who do not “toe the line” of Israeli infallibility.

The fact that neither the thread, nor any posters in it, nor the film that is the subject of the OP, were previously defending or discussing Israel does not deter him (nor, for what it’s worth, do any moderators seem interested in deterring his bigoted comments).

This is the typical position of both the far left and the far right: turn every discussion of Jews into a discussion of Israel; refuse to let the two subjects diverge; hold all Jews responsible for Israel’s actions; defend every anti-Semite, no matter what they say or do, as a legitimate protestor of Israeli policy; then, insist that it is only the other side that conflates criticism of Israel with anti-Semitism and play the censorship card.

Do you mean RedFury? I don’t see any RedFox in that thread.

  1. That’s not his name.

  2. He didn’t say this:

Otherwise, good post.

4

… You big dummy.

5

Yes, I did get his name wrong. Mea culpa there.

6

You won’t, he was off having a heart attack. :smiley:

That was Red Foxx. Red Fox is a restaurant.

9

Then Marley was wrong, too. :wink:

10

I stand by it. I’ve never heard of the restaurant and the Red Foxx reference is funnier.

11

Same here. I knew about the extra “x” and just ignored it.

12

Actually, it was Redd Foxx.

13

I guess I’ll try it again with the right name if someone could kindly close this one…

14

The thread is 2 pages long. You need to link to the offending post so we can judge for ourselves.

15

Jimmy Hoffa would be so disappointed.

No argument there. OTOH, since the thread is already a lost cause. . . .

Closed duplicate thread.
