            Just say you don’t know. It’s fine. You said something that you thought sounded cool, but you didn’t think about what it meant and then you had to save face by resorting to repeated ad hominem jabs. You’ll be much happier in life if you just admit it.

                You’ve replied to my comment saying that this is a “well funded PR campaign.” Yet you’re flailing about and sputtering insults trying to explain how something can be “well-funded” but also no one is getting paid and no one is doing the paying. It doesn’t make sense and you know it. So just admit it.

                You know what, just put your wife on. At least I can talk to someone capable of making sense.

                    I can’t believe how far you’ve missed the point. You are accusing Jews of being upset over a comment that minimizes antisemitism because some nefarious scheming cabal has paid to make people feel that way. You still don’t realize how antisemitic that is. You still don’t realize that you are the one being targeted and manipulated.

                    I have challenged you to pause and actually think critically about the wildly unfounded accusation you made. You responded with repeated insults and weird stalking, staunchly falling short of the task. You still haven’t come up with any plausible firm or individual paid to “generate outrage,” nor an organization paying, nor a smoking gun ad, paid social media campaign, nor commercial, nor any mechanism that this supposed money was used to supposedly influence people.

                    You’re grasping at straws now with vague handwaving at everyone’s favorite boogeyman, AIPAC, which spends about 1/1000th as much as each of Saudi Arabia or Qatar.. Israel doesn’t even crack the top 10.

                    I’m finished trying to lead you by the hand to the conclusion that you made an unfounded claim, based in part on antisemitic messaging you have been unknowingly exposed to.

                    Jews are scared and under physical attack. around. the world. It’s not something that started in the past six weeks. It is harmful when millionaire public figures minimize or justify antisemitism.

                    You clearly don’t get it, won’t get it, and have no interest in getting it. Here’s a list of charities helping Israelis and Palestinians. Stop wasting your breath insulting a vulnerable minority and go do some good.
