    I think it’s just not especially clear to people that you’re pointing out that there’s a reason the ski resort is implying, but skating around accusing a Jew of theft. For some reason people are interpreting it as pedantry instead of holding the ski resort accountable. They should be explicit about what exactly has happened so that people can see how flimsy it is instead of talking nebulously about “incidents”

      Don’t bother, his point was very clear from the start but he isn’t here to argue in good faith, he’s here to bait people with ridiculous questions and then in turn call them anti-semites for answering them. He’s a troll, plain and simple.

        The world has gone topsy turvy. It is anti-Semitic to ban Jews from renting your equipment, regardless of the reason (maybe if it’s made out of pork). It is not anti-Semitic to a) read the ski shop’s implication and follow it; b) think Israel should stop bombing Gaza. The other person is definitely arguing in bad faith now, but it’s a valid point to say that if the ski resort wants to make an accusation it should be specific.

        This is not a response just to you, it’s just that I feel like Jews are getting politicized because of Israel, and it feels so dangerous.
