Democrats just need to keep going high guys

Just a little bit more bipartisanship, reaching accross the aisle, and civility and everything will be okie doke

[Big Abraham]

Guess what? This isn't anti-Semitic either. Using a dollar sign to assail a billionaire hedge fund manager doesn't have to be a reflection of some deep-seated anti-Jewish bias.

Also, Steyer is a practising Episcopalian. Not that it matters.

[Crumpets]

Jordan maintains relatively good, albeit occasionally tense relations with Israel. It's more Jordan's autocracy and blind eye for human rights abuses we should be concerned with.

[Frozen Sky Ever Why]

This constant crying wolf is making the term anti-Semitic completely meaningless. Have you no shame?

[Pyro]

Tom Steyer is literally worth $1.6 Billion.

[Progressive Pessimist]

Steyer isn't even a practicing Jew!

[Chancellor Tanterterg]

This wasn't anti-Semitic, just dumb.

Democrats crying wolf are going to feel foolish when the actual Neo-Nazi right sweeps into power on a platform of triggering the libs.

"His father, Roy Henry Steyer, was a partner in the New York law firm of Sullivan & Cromwell, and was a prosecutor at the Nuremburg Trials."

I think Steyer's already familiar with the "actual" Nazi right.

Yeah, why is this here lol. Surely there are more important things for USGD?

Yeah, because the real Nazis never ever ever gassed any "half-Jews", and Stormfront and their ilk never ever ever identify people who aren't technically Jewish as Jews.

No, just trolls.

 Jim Jordan has become a very reliable deplorable.

[Southern Senator North Carolina Yankee]

Jordan should be in jail or at least out of office in disgrace.


However using the dollar sign merely indicates that the person in question cares only about money. I have mostly seen it used in the name Microsoft to ridicule various unpopular decisions they have made or their monopoly accusations back in the day.

[free my dawg]

I see the centrist mission of crushing socialism before fascism is still strong.

And who Jordan is really criticizing here is Nadler, suggesting he is motivated by Steyer's money.  So I guess it can be considered antisemitism on the definition that includes whenever someone who happens to be Jewish is called greedy.

They did in fact not place half-Jews, or as the Nazi would have called them Mischlings of 1st Degree, in the death camps, you needed to have 3 Jewish grandparent to count as Jewish. Mischlings was banned from serving in the SS or marrying other Mischlings and suffered under a lot of other discrimination. But they wasn’t executed for being Jewish.
