Whoa son, do you really expect me to read all that?

OT: Who cares? If someone is not harming you then what does it matter if they're racist?
Because yr perpetuating a power structure used to privilege a majority at the expense of a minority's rights.

I think people should know that Arabs are Semites.

Anti-Semitism is used like Anti-Jew but Semitic is a language family. Most Arabs speak Arabic whilst most Jews do not speak Hebrew.

That means that most Arabs are Semites while most Jews are not, which is why the term anti-Semitic is weird.

Conformity to western culture (especially USA melting pot) divides religious observance more and more. A "Jew" means less and less these days, I guess.
