Re: Can't say 'Israeli apartheid' in Toronto (none / 1)

I realize this is partly about I/P, but it seems also about political correctness, the declining public space for free speech, and the forced de-politicization of a corporate-sanitized gay 'identity'.

I wasn't attracted to the same-old-same-old headline "Jews Confront Jews in San Francisco."

Fair enough point.

In this particular case, however, I think you missed out on a good diary that touched upon many of the same subjects.

Re: Can't say 'Israeli apartheid' in Toronto (none / 1)

What's interesting about the story hook "Jews versus Jews"? Are Jews supposed to agree with each other on major political issues like I/P? Anyway, that was my first impression. And Shergald contributes a lot of diaries, so my impression was this was one of his less inspired efforts. Oh well, my mistake.
