Read it again. Maybe you’ll understand why. I just explained everything. I said that their policy of telling people to report suspected pseudonyms to block them entirely was bigotry. And that poster is what bigotry looks like.

It sounds to me as if you think I agree with the stereotype. I don’t. I think I made that clear.

I wouldn’t be moving to Israel in a week if I thought that the stereotype was real. But I am moving to Israel, so please spare me the “you must secretly harbor thoughts…” spiel, thank you very much. I’m saying that there are legitimate uses and comparisons, and I pulled one up. I also said that I don’t think Breitbart’s use was legitimate because in that instance, it’s an agreement with the portrayal when mine was obviously a disagrement of the portrayal.

I’m not sure how much more clear I can be on it. And again: the engineer saw how dreadfully wrong he was and backed down and apologized. And I wasn’t the only one to make the comparison. A lot of people were rightly infuriated as was I.
