Simply commented on how folks blasting Omar are getting classified as numerous things to include racists. or classify them as "squealing about racism". You know the type.

And 1 death is nothing like 3,000.

No issue with anyone not mentioning the total; I just find trivializing by calling it "something" and calling those that committed the act (somebody).

No whataboutism from me. I'm willing to call her an anti Semitist if you want me to. But I won't call her one and not Trump who has tweeted and said far worse anti Semitism things like you see happening now in the media and in this thread. That's the big difference. No more holding one party accountable and not the other.

I know it happens because Americans allow it to, but I don't have to play along. I'm not slamming Dems anymore for things that we have excused and ignored Republicans for doing. Trump has set a new standard, Republicans have always gotten a pass for their perceived morality (religious right) and if we aren't holding Republicans accountable, then I'm not holding Dems accountable.
