> Your distinctions are not ones I see. I see no difference between stating that a poster has posted anti-semitic statements and accusing a poster of anti-semetism. At the very least you are accusing posters of posting antisemitic statements. Which I don't find particularly conducive to positive feelings.
D,
I see a difference between one posting a statement that could put down Jews and determining if the poster of such is anti-Semitic.
If a statement is posted that could arouse anti-Semitic feelings, it could also put down Jews. The rule here is that one is not to post what could put down those of other faiths. An anti-Semitic statement could put down Jews.
But is the person that posts such anti-Semitic? That could be a different. You see, I can not look into a person's heart to determine if they hate Jews and posted the anti-Semitic statement of of malice toward Jews to arouse hatred toward them. That could be determined by having more information than just the one post that puts down Jews. There is a test for that, though.
Here we are in discussion with Mr Hsiung to purge statements that are anti-Semitic. So I use the rule here that an anti-Semitic statement is one that puts down Jews. And the rule to not post what could put down those of other faiths and the rule to not post a link that has anti-Semitic content. We are not in discussion as to if or if not the poster of such is anti-Semitic.
Now if a post has an anti-Semitic statement, which means it puts down Jews, it is what it is. Does one have to guess at a statement that puts down Jews as to if it does or does not? They usually are plainly visible. The question here is why are they allowed to stand when the rule is that anti-Semitic statements are those that put down Jews and the rule is to not post what could put down those of other faiths? And why would anyone want those type of statements to stand here as acceptable?
