    Never believe that anti-Semites are completely unaware of the absurdity of their replies. They know that their remarks are frivolous, open to challenge. But they are amusing themselves, for it is their adversary who is obliged to use words responsibly, since he believes in words. The anti-Semites have the right to play. They even like to play with discourse for, by giving ridiculous reasons, they discredit the seriousness of their interlocutors. They delight in acting in bad faith, since they seek not to persuade by sound argument but to intimidate and disconcert. If you press them too closely, they will abruptly fall silent, loftily indicating by some phrase that the time for argument is past.

    Jean-Paul Sartre

        See, you can’t help yourself even after loudly declaring you’re definitely not reading my posts and you’re all finished. You have to imply that hypothetically you could refute what I am saying. But you are on a level aware you are empty and know you have nothing at all. Zionism, Judeo-Bolshevik theory and Sinophobic ideology are the predominant antisemitic currents in the present day. You are the same as Trump, you just compete with his supporters to be the most foolish and annoying people alive.
