  • The whole point of labour

    The whole point of the tories

    If you say so.

    I absolutely disagree that what you said is "true".

    The point of both parties (and any political organisation) is to represent a particular set of people and lobby for their interests as they exist from time to time.

    Imo the right often attracts more bigots because conservative personality types dislike change and tend to be traditional. Anti-Semitism as a type of bigotry fits more naturally with the left thanks to longstanding anti-semitic themes of global financial capitalism conspiracies.

    Tl;Dr everyone's a little bit racist.

    Source plz. While I don't deny anti-Semitism exists amongst those who self proclaim to be part of the left, to claim it's more 'naturally' suited to exist amongst the left is myopic in both historic and contemporary examples. Insultingly so.

  • Sorry if I wasn't clear. I meant as form of prejudice, subtitle anti-Semitism is easier for people on the left to get behind than colour based racism. Not that suits the left more than the right.
