          Now, if he had scored by being the slimy dipshit he kept on being and gave him the presidency, would he boast about it? or rather lie saying "oh yes being a fraud didn't got me far [wink wink]"

          I mean, everyone who has any idea who those cited writers were knows he's a spineless fraud today. But is it really easier to get the presidency than getting laid?

    How does one become so well known as a zionist with no game, that when a journalist decides to write an article, they think to interview you?

      Don’t do it so soon. You gotta manipulate them into thinking you’re interested then break their heart.

      Basically the DENNIS system, except you engage virtually

    Even when I set it to "Jewish only".

    Bruh wut? I've been out of the dating game for a while but do dating apps these days really let you filter by race/religion?

      Pretty sure the ones that let you filter have let you filter by anything you want with a premium account.

      Also do people list their race/religion on their dating profile? I have no experience in this but I feel like those would at least be a second date topic.

        Yes, granted depending on where you are in America everyone has "Christian" on their profile, on top of that there are a couple of races/religion specific dating sites (black people meet, Christian mingle)

    is this the start of an attempt to whitewash and conflate anti-zionism with anti-semitism? I bet we see this term more and more since AIPAC has taken note that their wild claims of antisemitism are being called out as bullshit

    Edit: i misspoke. You are right. Conflating the two had been going on since Israels inception.

    I meant to say "the start of a quiet removal of "anti-semitism" from the lingo in favor of just outright using "anti-zionism", because attempts to conflate the two by AIPAC aren't working any more.

        I haven't seen an article yet where they haven't even mentioned antisemitism in favor of using zionism, but i am confident you see more than i do what with your post count

      The article says the person got antizionists even when they set their profile to jews only. If the writer was trying to conflate zionism with jewishness, they wouldn't have included that.

        sounds like you arent cynical enough. I can fix that ;) Lets go to the source of Rnai's excellent post:

        to be clear, not really arguing with you ( i say this cuz a bunch of linked quotes often seems debate-pervy) laugh along with me! laugh i say!

        CW: straight bullshit

        Let's take a few more snippets from this turd for those who don't want to give them a click:

        What’s more, while app algorithms are challenging to pin down, Jewish daters say that their matches have gone down since the war started and they think it’s got something to do with the “Jew” stamp on their profile.

        “I don’t have a problem with the Palestinian flag – people can share whatever flag they like, but the people who post ‘no Zionists’ are basically saying ‘no Jews’. It’s what they think is an acceptable way of saying it,” he adds.

        They're getting warmer now, doing that conflation bullshit. wonder how far they'll take it?

        “Before the war, I said on Hinge that I was liberal and interested in politics, (lol) but I’ve taken that off now,” says Hannah.

        “I’m hiding that aspect of myself because all the other girls on there who are into politics seem to hate Jews.

        “It’s frustrating,” she says, “because I want to meet people who I can talk to about the world.

        “But if they’re saying ‘no Zionists’ that doesn’t leave much room for me.”

        HERE WE GO! 'no Zionists' is hatred of jews!

        There’s always been pressure on Jews to meet each other – it’s one of the factors behind programmes such as Birth Right – but for many, it was not until October 7 and the subsequent hike in antisemitism that matching with a Jew felt necessary.

        Jacob says: “I didn’t care before, but now I’ll make a bit more effort to try and find someone Jewish.”

        Like Zack, however, he has encountered anti-Zionist Jews.

        Now, towards the bottom, they use the terms interchangeably within a few sentences.

        So its par for the course at the old conflation station or a subtle shift away from using antisemitism at all.
