Semitic is a language group, not a race or culture. You cant be antisemitic against a language. So the term has only and always been derogatory of the Joos
Well that is funny when you just Google "define Semitic people". You get this
quote:
Semitic people or Semites is an obsolete term for an ethnic, cultural or racial group formerly used in connection with ancient and modern peoples of the Middle East and the Horn of Africa, including Akkadians (Assyrians and Babylonians), Arabs, Ammonites, Arameans, Canaanites, Edomites, Habesha peoples, Israelites, Jews, Judahites, Moabites, Phoenicians, Samaritans, and others
So then...
quote:
antisemitic is a term that has only been associated against Jews
You agree that the modern usage is a made up term that means absolutely nothing since the bulk of those who use the term are not Semitic people, but really seem to hate Semitic people.
My smartass comment you replied to still stands.

I literally applauded when the clip ended haha. Everything he said is spot on.

Another one of those ‘magic words’ used to end debate and keep people quiet.

I love how Bill Maher is one of the OG "go after that group and demonize them because I don't like them" pioneers... but is salty when it has boomeranged back to HIS group.
Another example of them losing control of the monster they created.

How did you miss this in your link?
I didnt google anything. I went to the etymology of the terms. They were created by Germans hostile to Joos based on a specific reference to Shem, of the Hebrew Bible

He's saying most people who post here are too ignorant to apply critical thought.

Whats your opinion on the USS Liberty bombing?

Whats your point?
Why did Israel try to destroy an American ship they knew belonged to US?

Can you read? My point is incredibly clear.

It played right back to this

And I really do not care that Wilhelm Marr brought new life to the term.

Did the Japanese commit the worst case of espionage in our history?
Did they steal nuclear material from us?
Someone we consider a strong ally sure did.

Yes its called deflection.

No, you avoided answering the question.
Why did our greatest ally bomb a ship they knew was ours killing dozens of American military men?
Posted on 5/18/26 at 1:40 pm to UtahCajun
I never said that Israel is above criticism. What the hell does that have to do with any of the specific points made in the video? What exactly do you have an issue with about anything he said?

My main issue is that he started off with moral comparisons. As if to say "look, we know Isreal does some shady shite but that is all cool cause look over here". Typical leftist play. Distract from the point at hand.
As a minor issue, I do not care about Jews. I only care about a country that is based on ethno-supremecy and that we give them money from the public coffers.
Maher is saying that not likeing Isreal is antisemitic. Just like many here, that is a beyond stupid stance.

Well, it should be considered whenever you hear people talking about "our greatest ally."
I dont know how you get around it.
