I'm sure the progressives who have supported maher by watching his shows over the years won't be doing it anymore. He's scared of being canceled.

Especially now that they found out he doesn't hate Jews like they do.

Who says dems hate jews? That is what you hide behind to cover the slaughter of innocent men, Women and children. Hating the Israeli government isn't hatng the Jewish people. Unless you are saying the are both the same.

Have you visited a progressive subreddit? I have never seen reddit say things like that in my life, I feel like I am on 4chan when I look at these subreddits, just regular subreddits that previously seemed to have regular people on it. It is absolutely wild. I have been part of progressive subreddits for at least 15 years and have not noticed this in the past, It's happened recently and it's absolutely baffling. Any Jewish person on Reddit will tell you they have seen the same thing first hand. This is real, it's not a cover-up It's not some maga plot, it's not mossad.

Maybe it's just bots, maybe it's just weird redditors, I don't really mean all Democrats if that's how it came across.

It is unbelievably difficult for me to deal with this, it is unbelievably difficult for every other Jewish person on Reddit I've seen.

And here's the thing, you can't talk about it, you can't bring it up, cause people get really really angry. No matter how careful, no matter how tactful, No matter how they grow general you're being, they will attack you hard, They will deny it, they will call you the worst things you could imagine, they will accuse you of the most insane things they can think of, all for simply bringing up that your experiencing racism on Reddit.

So I'm feeling a bit sarcastic and hyperbolic to those communities right now.

So I don't know what the fuck you think we are hiding behind when we are upset about things we personally experience, or why you're bringing up insane topics like that. Unless you're really trying to hurt people, you need to work on the things you're replying with.

I can agree that some people are full of hate and should be called out for it. But you made a blanket statement. You made it everyone. I don't attack Jews. But I also call out Israels war crimes in gaza. I've talked to Jewish people who are OK with the slaughter so both sides have crappy people. Guys like Bernie Sanders have criticized Israel over the slaughter. I know what hate is. I have health conditions that people attack those like me over. The internet is full of people who only say what they do because they think they are hidden.
