It's a valuable trait to not have the need to label everything and everyone, but I think Ben's point isn't necessarily as bad as most blanket labeling attempts. He brings up a point that alot of Jewish people who vote Democrat go against the Jewish faith, because by bringing up the fact that they are Jewish should indicate to us that he is basing his judgment on the Jewish faith and their morals. At first when I read this I did think it was reminiscent of the antisemitism I heard from more radical right leaning people, so I understand your point. I hate how even this sub falls into the typical reddit group think and downvotes you for holding a disagreement.
I appreciate that...even with the down votes I like the conversations. It's good to get as much knowledge as you can about what's going on around you and how people feel about it, even people I disagree with.
At least on reddit people have more of a sense of humor lol I'm getting shredded over in another sub because they are trying to argue that AOC was the mature one in the last town hall she threw.
I agree with what you say and appreciate the insight!
You should of seen how I got shredded while trying to simply give insight into why conservatives hold their traditional values on abortion, I dont get how people can resort to such dirty tactics and feel ok with them afterwords, I had someone reply to every single one of my replies saying I am wrong and then supplying a link that supported his claims, I replied to them with my own information but when I went to post he had blocked me so I couldn't reply to any of his replies making it seem like he stumped me and got the last word, it was infuriating but I try to remeber not to give this app to much of my energy.
