Bill Maher unloads: 'How come it's okay for the left to hate the Jews?'
The HBO host asked his panel why far-left antisemitism wasn’t a bigger deal, saying it is more serious than the 2017 white supremacist rally in Charlottesville.

"Real Time" host Bill Maher put a spotlight on the lack of condemnation of the growing antisemitism that has erupted on the left in comparison to the country's response to the infamous 2017 white supremacist rally in Charlottesville.

"I got a question. How come it's okay for the left to hate the Jews?" Maher asked on Friday night. "Because, obviously, if this was the people at Charlottesville doing this, wouldn't there be a bigger outcry?"

CNN contributor Ana Navarro responded by saying it's not an "apples to apples" comparison, saying that the "images" of dead children in Gaza are a major factor in the left's activism. But writer Joel Stein insisted the college students currently protesting have "more power" than the "tiki torch IT guys" that were marching in Charlottesville.

"If the people in Charlottesville who were chanting ‘Jews won't replace us,’ I mean, that's bad. It's not as bad as ‘Death to.' That's not deplorable?" Maher exclaimed.

"It's absolutely terrible," Navarro responded.

"Okay, well, if one side is deplorables and the other side does something that's- I mean, if I was a Holocaust survivor, and I guess there's not many of those left, but if I was, I would choose ‘Jews will not replace us’ over 'Death to Zionists," Maher said.

"There's no condemnation like there was with Charlottesville," he later added.

Because the Left exempts itself from the standards they impose on others.  Maher knew that.

What I find puzzling is how the left and the (allegedly) far right, i.e., the Q Anons, all equally seem to hate the Joooos.  :pondering:

I take Jews one at a time... God's Chosen but godless George Soros doesn't exactly find his way in my top 10 list. Do I choose to overlook what Berlin was before WW2 (sin capital of the world), no... and that those that now create golden calves for the masses perhaps are to be judged as harshly as those that reside on the left. There is great Jews, but I will not give all a pass because they can be down right filthy humans like the rest of society. One on one basis is how I take most Jewish people same as others. A secular Jew perhaps (highly IMHO) shouldn't even have to right to call themselves Jewish. As a Christian, I pray that Israel will accept Christ before it is to late. I pray the leftist secular Jewish people wake up, cause they do not understand the beast they are helping to unleash (or perhaps they do). The Christian support of Israel is one of the few left they have... and that string connecting the two is not to play some banjo song with it. Time and time and time again Jews had to learn the hard way (me too to be honest)... that that gulf of separation between them and God does not bode well. America is finding that out the hard way too.

How is it OK for the Left to HATE anyone with White skin?
Even when the people pushing open racism against Whites are White themselves.
The American Left is at its central foundation a Party of HATE.
All of the Left's major platforms and policy initiatives are all about who and what they HATE.

The American National Socialist Democrat Party is a Party of HATE and violence, as they have always been from the beginning.

If they kill their own with no conscience, there is nothing to stop them from killing you.

Yes it is, the Left is the side of anti-American sheer hatred, treason, debauchery, and totalitarianism communism and fascism (which is what they current,y have on their way to communism).

They hate America because it is freedom, no matter how they spin it as being horrible all because of blacks.  In truth that is just a convenient mechanism to prove that America is bad and must be changed and punished,
Common sense is an uncommon virtue.

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.
