(This was originally a comment in [livejournal.com profile] webcowgirl's journal, but I wanted to share.)

The New York Times recently published a column by one David Brooks in which he alleges that
those who oppose the neoconservative agenda are anti-Semitic. (More coverage: Talking Points, This Modern World)

I look forward to the Times carrying my rebuttal in next week's edition, in which I argue that Brooks only says that because he likes to fuck pigs.

On both sides.

People should be judged on what they do, not what they are.

This means that judging all Jews as the same because the are Jewish is bad. That is anti-semitism.

Judging one Jew as bad because he has done something bad is not anti-semitic because is not a judgement of ALL Jews.


This is the level we must talk on if we are to adequately communicate with these morons, assuming that they are amenable to communication in any way.

I am gradually becoming more and more convinced that locking step with them in any kind of debate is a waste of time.
