to oppose antisemitism is understood as 'coming out' as a Jew. Like a straight guy who won't put up with homophobic jokes. The explanation is that the straight guy is gay. Or the anti-racist who becomes a "nigger-lover." Whether antisemites use the straightforward "Jew" or the more circumspect "Zionazi" doesn't much matter - that dynamic is more important.A variation, in other words, of the Livingstone formulation.

as mentioned before, i´m not sure if it´s bad moderation or bad moderator. probably a mixture of the two.
at this point we´re being told that the reason it´s ok to laugh about the recent assault on holocaust survivors in austria is because sigmung freud was supposedly critical of zionism.
it´s all very illuminating over on IMC-NYC.
