Rep. Rashida Tlaib is getting backlash from fellow Democratic Party members who have asked her to remove a social media post justifying the phrase, "from the river to the sea."
“Very fine people” is the most out of context quote that is easily dismissed if you actually cared to research the full context. If you care so much about truth, and if reality had such a liberal bias, surely you’d want to be correct about this?
If that didn’t work, how about “Banning lefty posts is the only thing keeping this sub from just being like every other political sub on lemmy. Not banning them would defeat the purpose of the sub.”
If I say the Chinese government is committing crimes against humanity no one thinks I’m a racist. If I say Donald Trump is a moron, no one thinks I hate all Americans. If I say the Israeli government shouldn’t be responding to Hamas’ attack the way they are? Oh man, now I’m an antisemite and hate all Jews!
The republican party that shouted Jews will not replace us? And the president that said there were very fine people?

Whataboutism.
If we can’t make our own posts to add context, then whataboutism is all that’s left.
Didn’t we already talk about this?

I’ll point it out as many times as is needed.

Not needed, you didn’t need to repeat yourself. You wanted to repeat yourself.
