nosey-parker: I'm not sure who your comment addresses (and for what purpose). I listed a few examples (by famous, reputable & credible people & organizations) on the topic. If you have problems with the content, I suggest you take it up with the authors/source of the content (and not the messenger).

Another problem with your comment is that you are making strawman arguments that are unrelated to what I wrote. (re: I personally have not made any arguments for or aginst anti-semitist - in fact, I don't even mention the word once). So I'm not sure what inferences you are making. Maybe you are having an argument with yourself about something you assume from the comment?

Also, I'm not sure on what basis you make the assumptions you do about me.

Examples:

(1)"You should try being a person of color" ? What makes you think I am or am not?

(2) "I understand it is not a fun time to be a person who identifies at "Jewish" (though what that means varies widely), but this is not about you." ? What makes you think I am Jewish?

(3) What makes you think "I" said anything about anti-semitism? (or that this discussion was about anti-semitism)?

Again, none of the opinions in my original comment are mine. So go take up the discussion with them if you are rattled/triggered with the arguments presented by them. (and maybe re-read by original comment - maybe that will help).

Aaargh! I was not addressing you. I was responding to some of the many links people posted in trying to discredit Alison Weir. I had no idea all this was going on. Not you. Please do not think that I was responding to you. Mostly I'm responding to the JVC and the coalition that has been attacking her. Not you at all. This is one of the problems with the way Substacks sets up their comments section. Sorry!

My post still stands. All of it. But it is not directed at you.
