I guess you chose the second option: "I'll have the whine, please."
You coulda stepped up. Or just backed off, let this all go. Instead, you continue.
You just don't get it. Your familial heritage does
NOT give you the freedom to "say whatever you want"...to mis-use the phrase "Anti-Semitism." Or to unjustifiably call someone an Anti-Semite.
I would argue the exact opposite: you have an
obligation to your family to be very careful in how you use that phrase. And to oppose the mis-use of it by others.
"Crying Wolf" about Anti-Semitism is a massive danger. Not just to Jews. To everyone. It desensitizes the entire idea.
MAGA has been a huge promoter of this tactic. They are using it to further divide us. And you have blundered right into it.
And my prediction is that you will continue in this vein, using it to vent your uncontrollable hatred on me and "MY Side."
Stop. Break the cycle.
If you don't want to, at least start another fucking thread.
