The thread "Canada rethinking its sales to saudi arabia" on the first page, the person talks about the Jews and Jewish children for about the third time on threads.  That was when I called the person on it.   And the person reiterates that Jews are criminals and their children will follow their parents.

I'm just saying that if that was said about all Muslims (or even if it's said about individual Muslims), there would be hell to pay.  But not one other person called it out.  Not one other person said this was an antisemite.  I spoke to another member privately and they saw it being said too, over and over in multiple threads, but they also feel the person is protected by mods, so.....

The same kind of things are said about Muslims, lots, and I don't see the mods doing anything about that.

Calling Islam out for its bullshit = bad
Calling Jews and Jewish children murderers and criminals = protected speech

I haven't noticed any kind of moderation or censorship on people criticizing Islam from the moderators.  I don't even see any kind of moderation when people make extreme anti-Muslim comments - aka Islamophobic comments.   

Honestly, I don't see a lot of difference between "Isreali kids and parents are criminals" and "Muslims are unable/unwilling to integrate with Western culture".   Both are false statements that are the result of propaganda to support an agenda of hate.

And none of that is against the rules either.  Nor are most posts like that reported.
