“Better” was your word, your strawman, you’re putting quotes around something you said.

steve_davis said right-wing antisemitism was “more virulent,” referring specifically to “End times ideology.” Dominionist theology can accurately be described as both more two-faced and “virulent” than any brand of left-wing anti-semitism currently in play.


I don’t think it can be accurately described as such, though. It’s a very subjective statement.

Israelis actually do die because of the actions of Hamas and other terrorists. Dominionists have a creepy, weird-ass attitude towards Jews and Israel, and there’s crap like the ‘purified’ comment by whats-her-name, but they don’t result in the actual deaths of the Jews. Whereas strengthening and supporting Hamas can directly result in the deaths of Jews.

I don’t see any point in quantifying either as ‘more virulent’. It’s not a competition.
