You clearly need to read slower rather than react faster.

I did not say you were a conservative, I said you were an individual capable of forming your own opinions and not a parrot simply mouthing the opinions of others. If that offends you and you would rather be thought of as a "parrot", then more power to you.

My conservative example was an example of independent thinkers that get abused for thinking for themselves, I did not say you were one. Hopefully, you respect conservative African Americans just as much as you feel you deserve respect even if your opinions differ. If you can't give respect, you don't deserve any.

Likewise, I did not try to use you against Black Lives Matter, instead I used them as an example of an African American group that has "involved" themselves in the Middle East by coming out in favor of Hamas. If you actively support the Palestinians, then your whole premise that "black people" have nothing to do with Israeli-Palestinian War was a lie. Shame on you..

Don't say one thing and act hypocritically. You have taken a position that could impact the support the various groups receive from the American government. That means you are involved.

Finally, it was not a "few" Jewish activists that supported black Americans the vast majority of Jews did. Do not diminish their sacrifice including a number who died. The same cannot be said for Hamas and the Palestinians.

As a liberal, what are the core beliefs of the Palestinians that you admire, since their laws discriminate against women and gays.

I guess you don't think for yourself... sorry I made that mistake.
