OK, I've read this nonsense from you before.

It's always nice to be met with a friendly greeting. I don't recall posting with you before but who knows. Obviously, your experience is either different from mine, your read it differently, or you don't see what's going on. On the basis your post, it's genuinely hard to tell.

I can offer you (and the thread) a great many growing up stories that would illustrate my conclusion and more than a few from more recent years. But I don't see them getting us anywhere in this conversation. You appear to have a definite view and won't change it. Ditto me.

Oh, yes, one more thing, in my experience the racism in that world is quite closely tied to the anti-semitism. And it wasn't simply in the talk. It was in who was not present; in things not said; in little asides; etc. But, believe me, it was definitely there.
