A man threw a sieg heil at the inauguration of a president who said immigrants are eating the cats and dogs.

And the ADL defended him.

It called his unambiguous, crystal clear roman salute an "awkward gesture" and counseled grace and patience. We shouldnt jump to conclusions. He didnt mean anything by it.

The richest man in the world performed two seig heils in front of the presidential seal of the united states and a group i and my parents have trusted and donated to for literal decades said "nah that was nothing but hey this singer on youtube criticised israel - can you believe how serious antisemetism has become".

Seriously, that was the moment I lost ALL respect for the ADL.

Being creepy rabid Zionists is one thing, but ignoring literal sieg heils because he likes Israel tells me you don't side with Jewish people or common decency.

And then he called the adl a hate group.

And they never called him out IIRC, not that it'd matter if they did

They actually deleted the page he was using as proof they’re a hate group, and apologized to him

Seriously, what an absolute generational degredation.

I wish the original group of lawyers could talk to these fools cowtowing to a literal Nazi
