Reply to comment by Huskies971 in Ex-Capitol Police officer 'betrayed' oath by warning Jan. 6 rioter about Facebook posts, prosecutor says by Phatbrew

Yup. I'm Jewish and it really pisses me off seeing people defend Kanye over Twitter. Like, can't we draw a line at Antisemitism?

You think if Ilhan Omar said I'm going death Con 3 on Christians tonight, and got a measley 6 hour ban like Janye would, conservatives would be defending her "free speech" rights? We have fallen so far as a nation. Very sad.

Ok, autocorrect said Janye, and I'm keeping it that way. Ha!

We haven't 'drawn a line' for anything else. We've spent the last decade seeing Republican politicians call for trans people to be assaulted, imprisoned or executed, and get cheers instead of consequences. Among no shortage of other minority groups also being blamed for all of society's problems.

Don't forget women and abortions! No one drawn there either. It's a big cluster *.

The same people cheering for this are the same ones defending Kanye. But plenty of rational people have been talking about the disgusting rhetoric.
