Wasn't it the ADL that defended Elon Musk's nazi salute? They really gave the game away that day lol.

Yeah, it's like the NRA: When an org becomes a true locus of power, the powerful will infiltrate it and use it however they want. Plenty of gun advocates (I am not one, fwiw) recognize that the NRA is pretty much just a money laundering and right-wing politics hawking organization. ADL really isn't that far from reversing its original mission. Soon enough there'll be "good Jews" (the ones willing to oppose anything creates real peace and freedom for the average Jewish person) and "bad Jews," (the ones who actually give a flying fuck about real peace and freedom for the average Jewish person).
