      Very ignoring and racist comment. The reason why there is lot of conflicts in the middle east is because it is a very powerful region for empires to control trades routes and blocking resources from the enemies. Not to mention the worst atrocities happened in Europe and the americas from brutal colonization to translantic slavery, to world war 1 and 2 to the holocaust. I still don’t believe any region is naturally more violent than another

      “Have we considered antisemitism exists because the Jews just deserved it all this time?” is one Hell of a take…

          different groups of people that often are not even connected to each other

          Christianity is the most populous religion of the world with a long-defined history of defining itself in contrast to the other Abrahamic faith it split from.

          I am not advocating for antisemitism

          Advocating for downplaying the long-documented history of antisemitism indirectly advocates for antisemitism. It’s not like this is a niche prejudice; it wouldn’t be hard to learn about the causes and sources.

      Holy shit that is one very poor taste argument, you’re sounding like an absolute reactionary right now

      Consider this an official warning
