That is such a weak defense. It didn't work for Edward Said and it won't work for them.

- writepub 8y agoIf you really think Soros' Jewish heritage, versus a plethora of political actions, is more fodder for Sandberg, you've thoroughly underestimated her. My statement doesn't constitute a defense, because the NYT has failed to prove that Sanberg explicitly requested an anti-Semitic line of attack be launched again Soros. You'd expect a paper of NYT's stature to not omit the fact that Sandberg & Zuck are Jews themselves, and the likelihood of them conding attacks that paint their own heritage in bad light, is low, if not impossible
- ALittleLight 8y agoThere's a difference between anti-Semitic attacks that are motivated out of antisemitism and attacks that are motivated out of self interest. I don't believe anybody thinks Zuckerberg and Sandberg implied anti-Semitic things about Soros out of their genuine hatred of Jews. Instead, the idea is that they tried to exploit antisemitism to obfuscate legitimate criticism of their company.
