Clearly, Jews are anti-Semitic.

Only if all Democrats are Jews … clearly not the case. See where a little study of logic would have benefitted you?

Here's your syllogism:
The Democratic party is clearly anti-Semitic
Most Jews support the Democratic party
Ergo: Most Jews support antisemitism



George W. Potts said...


A classic false syllogism. Jews represent a very small percentage of the Democrat rarity … which has a large segment of antisemites. Independent of Kamala”s Venn diagram silliness, there is no proof that there is any real overlap between the two segments. The only way this could be assured would be if all Democrats were Jewish … which is not the case. Ergo your illogic that says (all) Jews are antisemitic is false. QED

I just read your comment again. You tried to pull a fast one by substituting “support” for “are”. Which, of course, is the dissonance motivating for the original poser.

Your original assertion: The democratic party is "clearly anti-Semitic."
I agree that *some* Democrats express criticism of Israel does not justify the assumption of anti-Semitism.. My original response was clearly mocking your fallacious logic.

Some of my good friends are Jewish but they sometimes criticize Israel's actions all the time. I don't think you can credibly call that antisemitism. Real Life is not binary.

It all depends on the context …
