What I am saying is:
The meaning of words is defined by how they’re used. Antisemitic has never been used to refer to anything but hating Jews akin to how the n-word has been used as an insult instead of a neutral descriptor.
You cannot use the n-word as a neutral descriptor, nor can you use the term antisemitism to describe hatred of non-Jewish ethnicities.
???
You know, you’re right. It doesn’t matter how words are used, only the etymology matters.
That’s why it’s ok to refer to black people as negros. After all, “negro” is the Spanish word for “black”, so “negros” just means “blacks”. And the n-word is just an English version of negro after all.
Yes, but the term antisemetic was coined by - well - antisemetic Germans who wanted a more scientifc term for “Jew hate” explicitly.
It doesn’t matter that Arabs are semetic, the history of the term solely refers to hating Jews.
There are three target groups of migrants, he explains, who should be extradited from the country – or, as he puts it, “foreigners” who should undergo “reversed settlement”. They are: asylum seekers, non-Germans with residency rights, and “non-assimilated” German citizens. It is the latter that, in his view, would pose the biggest “challenge”.
Silke Schröder, a property developer and board member of the right-leaning Verein Deutsche Sprache (German Language Association), wonders how re-migration would work in practice. Surely if a person has the “appropriate” passport it would be ” impossible”, wouldn’t it? For Sellner, this is just a detail. A “high level of pressure” will be exerted on people to adapt, he says, via “customised laws”. Re-migration won’t happen overnight; it is “a project that will take decades”.
The masterplan even includes a destination to “move people to”, a so-called “model state” in North Africa, that would apparently provide space for up to two million people. There would even be educational and sport offers there. And anyone who lobbies on behalf of refugees could join them there, Sellner added.
According to Sellner, the problem is “not just that foreigners live here. They also vote here.” “Ethnic voting” means that immigrants are likely to vote for “immigration-friendly” parties.
Same applies to Hamas. Why would they want peace when the leadership can live in luxury and remain in permanent control? If it means forcing every Palestinian to be a martyr, that’s just the price they’re willing to pay.
Hamas and Netanyahu’s government very much have a mutually beneficial relationship.
Since when is it in June? https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/International_Men’s_Day says it’s on November 19th.
Are there two international men’s days or why is there a spike in June?
