    Simple question: is anti-Semitism (or other ethnic hate) always bad, or only when "linked to DNC"? Because, you know, there are very fine people on many sides, on many sides.

    Fine people on many sides of unquestionable anti-Semitism?

    Stanislav, please explain your belief that many fine people are anti-Semitic.

    He is paraphrasing Trump, but You know that.

    If so then he does so incorrectly. There were people other than white nationalists there.

    And you know, Richard Spencer, like other supposedly rightists, like the erstwhile Fascists and Nazis, loves him some socialism.

    Abner:
    Abner, the great Semite said, "Let your yes be yes and your no be no. Everything else is of evil" (Matthew 5:37 and Matthew 7:6). Since you were unable or unwilling to answer Stanislav's question, here is the answer for both of you:

    Anti-Semitism is bad; and there are no noble anti-Semites.

    Anti-semitism is real and it's not a matter to be toyed with or mocked. Your mileage obviously varies. In the end, every knee will bow to a Semite -- and every tongue will confess that a Semite is the Lord Jesus Christ -- to include you (Philippians 2:8-11). There is no way around it!

    Me Again,
    You know full well "many sides" meme refers to Trump's disastrous comments on Charlottesville violence, last Summer. You also know full well that these were not his only problematic comment, and that many figures much closer to Trump than Farrah an is to DNC are credibly linked to racist and anti-Semitic circles. Sebastian Gorka is just one example. All I ask is to try and reflect that whatever compels you to play dumb (a form of deception), does not come from God.

    It is the plain fact that the Lord is a Jewish and the rightful King of Jews. His Holy Mother, Mary, is likewise a Jew, and so are all the Apostles. "Christian" anti-Semitism baffles me; it requires to either distrust the Scriptures or to deny Incarnation. Also, all racism is unChristian; St. Paul is very clear on this. I'm not sure this endorses the embassy move; there's a risk it will inflame the violence (between Semits btw) again.

    Whose god is top god? There are just so many gods.

    Overt racism is less dangerous than covert racism. As a black person who has faced racism, I think people who are overtly racist do a public service . I have never been hurt by anyone who had the guts to admit he/she is racist. Actually, I have had interesting conversations with them.

    However, it is an interesting take. Are you saying that Louis Farrakhan, an open black supremacist, is less dangerous than Donald Trump, who keeps saying that he is "the least racist person in the Universe", but is in bed with racists? Perhaps you're right. It's better to fly the fringe flag openly than to drag the fringe into the mainstream.

    Stanislav, the jury must determine if you're a liar or you're misinformed or you're simply bumbling-frankinbeans crazy. The jury is deliberating the verdict. Stay tuned.

    I do not want to speak to the specifics of this situation, but if DT is a covert racist then he can do more damage than the empty drum LF that makes a lot of noise. DT said he is not a racist. LF don't mind being a racist. Most of America has already discounted LF as fringe.

    To be sure, I do not know if Trump harbors racist views beyond the usual elderly white dude who watches too much Fox News. But he certainly enables racists, and courts their vote, in part by saying racist things and hiring racists to work in the White House. So functionally, it doesn't matter what he privately believes.

    And yeah, I believe a demagogue in the WH is more dangerous than the has-been cult leader.
