It was a prepared remark in her binder too, so she had this attack locked and loaded, knowing that it would hurt her.
You can say all your want about radlibs degrading the meaning of racism/bigotry, but by the time republicans are done wringing out antisemitism for all its worth, I can’t imagine why people would take the word seriously anymore. If someone as prominent as the AG feels empowered to level this accusation against a Jewish member of congress who lost a grandfather to the holocaust (and face no pushback from her party or Jewish advocacy groups), you can’t help but feel that the word has turned into a convenient political attack vector, not a serious accusation you make toward people who genuinely want to harm jews. Plus, all that will do is just drive otherwise ambivalent jews to become zionist because there’s safety in aligning yourself with an extremely powerful group of people that at least nominally pretend to give a shit about jews. Fuck republicans man…
Same with ‘genocide’
