Fair enough. He didn't say anti-semitism is okay. What he did do, which prompted my inaccurate comment, is admit to make "joking" videos about the genocide of Jews which are in egregiously poor taste. And then go on to make paranoid comments about the FBI manipulating the Jewish lobby and Jewish reporters to alleging that he bombs synagogues, or something (I wasn't too clear on this part).
- Robin_Message 16y agoThank you. He certainly did make such videos which he claimed to be parody adding useful balance to the Israel/Palestine debate -- I think we would agree that this was not useful, but I don't believe his intentions were anti-Semitic.
- ErrantX 16y agoIt's hard to really say what his intentions are. He does (going on his online postings) regularly spout anti-semitic nonsense, but then he is a very troll like person. So it is hard to figure where his real beliefs lie - he often sounds serious, but then he may just be a serious troll. (and, also, I suppose it is arguable his intentions [trolling or meaning it] are irrelevant because it still goes out there and communicates to people without being clearly ironic)
