      A boomer thinks their anecdotal experience is indicative of anything beyond their own experience? Shocking.

          Yeah, he’s the classic boomer model of “my point is whatever makes me correct at this immediate moment”. Check his comment history for a laugh, he gives people grief for doing the same things he’s doing here. No self awareness or integrity whatsoever.

            I wonder if they will ever accept that israel constantly lies and shouldn’t ever be trusted without extensive investigation.

          I don’t think you understand what anecdotal evidence means. One person seeing something repeatedly is still anecdotal and of similarly little value when making statements about broader trends.

          You didn’t link or even reference this media coverage that specifically supports your assertion so yes, for your comment and even this one, the observation is still solely yours. We’re not mind readers, we don’t know what you’re not telling us and, in case you ask, no, we’re not going to look it up for you. If you don’t provide evidence, people online generally assume you’re making it up, and rightfully so.

      Okay so you participated more in marches than encampments. Good for you. But before you say all you see are threats to Jewish Americans, think back to what you were accused of, and google Jews for Peace. You’ll find they’re active in these protests. Which would be kind of weird if they were in danger from their fellow protestors? Media is making it seem like these are radicals in the same way they vilified the students protesting Vietnam.

      And the 1930’s Bonus Army wasn’t homeless people. It was World War 1 veterans demanding their pay.
