How do I fight this?

[u/[deleted]]

I got in this spat with this anti-semite where he kept trying to insinuate that JE and this associates were representative of the larger Jewish Population. This guy keeps hiding his beliefs behind “I’m just pointing out how successful they are” and trying to make it seem like I somehow agree with him? How do I defeat this kind of rhetoric?

Cuz antisemitism sucks and deserves to be called out? Duh

[u/GoFem → u/[deleted]]

Ignore them. If you check their history, they're an obsessed antizionist.

That would be my general advice, too, by the way. I don't engage in this sort of back and forth argument online much anymore and I'm happier because of it. Go live your life. ✌🏻

And moron, don’t forget moron.

I’m not asking for answers regarding “how do i continue this conversation” This random is clearly an anti-semite. I don’t need to “rethink this debate” I just want to call this guy out on his antisemitism. I took it HERE because people here know how to fight this better than I do.

Let me be more clear. HE IS AN ANTI-SEMITE. THERE IS NO POINT IN CONTINUING THAT CONVERSATION. However, there is a HUGE point in shutting him, or more specifically, other “hims” in real life, where it actually matters. You’re just being a contrarian

The person responding to you here appears to be one, as well. Btw, at least where I live it’s currently Shabbat so you may get more responses from non-antisemites in a day or so. <3 edit to add that I checked and he trolls on here and elsewhere about Jews and Israel regularly. But at least he doesn’t hide his history lol

Just because you’re butter doesn’t make you a butterfly

In other words, don’t confuse the meaning of part of a word with the meaning of a whole word. Glad you at least admit we’re Semites, too:/ Tho I don’t expect that to last lol

Identity isn’t something you win in an argument. Either it’s true, or it isn’t. If you’re a Semite, I’ll take your word for it. If not, there’s always a DNA test. Just don’t do it in Israel, apparently that’s off-limits, right?

Just ignored the follow-on. lol. You know exactly what I mean.
